When undergoing treatment for advanced breast cancer, it's important to stay as active as possible. "The type of exercise that's best for you and how often you exercise will depend on your treatment goals, abilities, and preferences," said Laurie Allen-Schneider, DPT, MSEd, a physical therapist at The Mount Sinai Hospital. "You may not be able to do the same activities with the same vigor as you did before you developed advanced breast cancer, but you certainly can explore other options." Look for exercises that you enjoy and that may also be less intense and gentler on your joints.
