About this listen

The Recovery Fitness® cancer exercise program is a series of stretching and strengthening exercises designed to improve recovery. These exercises range from stretches done as you progress from being in bed, moving to a chair and finally to the point where you are able to lift light weights. The program shows you how to work out, when to work out, and the duration and frequency of the workouts. If you follow the Recovery Fitness® cancer exercise program, the difficult experience of having cancer can be made a lot easier. As you read through this book, you will notice that we repeat a lot of common themes. These will help to reinforce the underlying rationale for our exercises. Recovery Fitness® offers comprehensive advice so that you can begin improving your physical and emotional health and reclaim your life beyond cancer. Through exercise, you will regain some control over your body, manage side effects more successfully, and increase your body's ability to heal. This book gives you clear concise directions to safely start an exercise program, and the tools to make exercise a lasting part of your lifestyle. You don't need a gym to perform the exercises the book recommends; most homes will have everything you will need. The Recovery Fitness® book uses easy-to-perform exercises with easy-to-read descriptions. The book is intended to assist patients currently battling the disease as well as those who have been in remission for years. The recommendations in the Recovery Fitness® program can help make you stronger, fitter, and mentally prepared to battle cancer.
