Importance of excercise
How do you fit in your 150 minutes of recommended exercise per week and the 2-3 sessions of weight training?
Do you do 5 x 30 minute sessions? What type of exercise do you do? Do you break the 30 m...
Everyone reacts to chemo in different ways. I've tried to exercise straight after chemo, even though I'm feeling "spaced out", then 30 mins the next day. After that, I'm lucky to manage a walk for the next few days until symptoms subside. When I start to feel better I do gentle weights or a Step class & just let my body be my guide as to what I can cope with. I don't always get through a class, but I'm definitely exercising 5-6 days per week. I find the more I do, the better I feel.
Good luck, do what you can!
