Today we’re talking about the relationship between cancer treatment and exercise.

For years, the standard advice for someone going through cancer treatment has been simple: just rest. The belief has long been that the body has to slow down and conserve energy to cope with the intensity of the treatment.

However, recent research is challenging this long held notion. What if your body doesn’t need to slow down - what if it actually needs to speed up?

Today, I’m joined by Dr. Jessica Scott, whose groundbreaking research is reshaping our understanding of the best path to recovery for cancer patients.
