Survivorship Conference

On Saturday, September 29, went to a survivorship conference, but just getting around to posting now. There seems to be an increase emphasis on helping post-chemo/cancer survivors. One session I attended was on exercise. Exercise was defined as physical activity that is planned and is repetitive movement. The building blocks of exercise are aerobic, resistance, balance, and stretching. The cells of the body need exercise, just as they need food and oxygen. Activity tolerance is defined as how much exercise one can do.
