My understanding is that exercise doesn't PREVENT cancer or recurrences, but that it improves survival in the face of cancer and recurrences.

That makes sense to me. Those who exercise are more likely to be fit and strong and aware of their bodies (not cause and effect, just a correlation). When in treatment, it certainly helps to be fit and strong, doesn't it? I know that I tolerated my treatments very very well, and being fit and strong had to be a part of that, I would think. I am not expressing myself as well as I would like as I am exhausted from my yoga teacher training program, lol.

Keep on moving...
