S2E22 - Exercise for Cancer Fatigue

Welcome to Season 2 of AMC Clinical Deep Dive!

Affecting 70–100% of patients, cancer-related fatigue is a high-yield topic. This episode presents NHMRC Level 1 evidence that exercise—whether aerobic, strength, or both—is the gold standard for reducing fatigue before, during, or after treatment. Learn to prescribe the "active recovery" mix (2–5 sessions/week) and why the old advice to "just rest" leads to harmful deconditioning. We detail how to lead a multidisciplinary team involving exercise physiologists and how to explain that exercise improves sleep and pain without worsening GI symptoms. Master these COSA-recommended strategies to sharpen your skills!
