Benefits of Specialised Exercise for Prostate Cancer 🏋️♂️ 🧠 ❤️
Exercise is increasingly recognised as a vital component in prostate cancer care. Research shows that regular, appropriate physical activity can help manage treatment side effects, improve quality of life, and potentially influence cancer outcomes.
How these circuit classes can help:
- Reduce fatigue and increase energy levels
- Help maintain muscle mass that might be affected by hormone therapy
- Improve cardiovascular health and overall fitness
- Enhance balance and reduce fall risk
- Boost mood and mental wellbeing
- Provide social connection with others on a similar journey
Our circuit approach means exercises can be modified to suit your individual needs, whether you're using a walking aid, experiencing treatment side effects, or maintaining an active lifestyle. Each station in the circuit targets different aspects of fitness, creating a comprehensive workout that's both effective and manageable.
The supportive group environment creates a unique space where physical challenges can be addressed alongside the emotional aspects of living with prostate cancer. Many participants find that exercising with others who understand their experience provides motivation and camaraderie that's difficult to achieve when exercising alone.
Join our Prost-FIT community at Northern Arena and take a positive step toward improved wellbeing during your prostate cancer journey.
