While it's well known that exercise provides mental health benefits, helps you burn calories and lose weight, and even has social benefits, a new study has revealed that being strong and fit can drastically improve your chances of surviving cancer.
The article from TechRadar discusses a study linking muscle strength and fitness to improved cancer survival rates. It highlights that individuals with higher muscle mass and strength have better outcomes when battling cancer, potentially due to better tolerance of treatments like chemotherapy. The article suggests three ways to enhance muscle strength and fitness: 1) Strength Training - incorporating exercises like squats, deadlifts, and bench presses to build muscle; 2) High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) - which involves short bursts of intense exercise followed by rest, beneficial for cardiovascular health and muscle endurance; and 3) Nutrition - focusing on a diet rich in protein to support muscle growth and recovery, alongside adequate hydration and balanced nutrients. The piece emphasizes the importance of consulting with healthcare providers before starting any new fitness regime, especially for cancer patients, to tailor the approach to individual health conditions.
