This protocol seeks to analyze patient outcomes of the standard of care, monitored group exercise regimen of high-load resistance training and functional exercises with compound movements under close supervision on individuals who have been treated for cancer.
Age 20-89 years
Women of child-bearing potential must verbally confirm lack of pregnancy prior to enrollment. They should also consent to use adequate contraception during the course of the study.
Participants must be determined capable of engaging in resistance training by exercise personnel and/or study PI
Participants must complete an assessment by EOC staff and be determined safe to engage in the workout regimen by the study exercise personnel.
None
Individuals diagnosed with cancer on an exercise program at the AHN Exercise Oncology and Resiliency Center
Cohort
Prospective
Dose escalated resistance training
Other interventionAll individuals will be engaging in resistance training during and/or after their cancer treatment
Determine changes in fat mass in pounds from before to after the nutrition and exercise regimen via bioimpedance analysis
Measurement on bioimpedance analysis machine (Inbody 970)
Determine changes in fat mass in pounds from before to after the nutrition and exercise regimen via ultrasound
Measurement via ultrasound and calculation with Jackson-Pollack calculations
Determine changes in muscle mass in pounds from before to after the nutrition and exercise regimen
Measurement on bioimpedance analysis machine (Inbody 970)
Determine changes in overall score of functional movement screen (FMS) from before to after the nutrition and exercise regimen
Determine changes in overall score of functional movement screen (FMS) from before to after the nutrition and exercise regimen
Determine changes in Y-balance score for each leg
Y-balance score adds up the distance each leg can move in the front and side directions, divided by the length of the hip. This correlates inversely with fall risk.
Determine changes in strength via load measured in pounds from before to after the nutrition and exercise regimen
Load is calculated by multiplying sets by repetitions by weight lifted for a specific exercise
Determine changes in EQ-5D responses 1-5 and overall score from before to after the nutrition and exercise regimen
EQ-5D asks 5 questions rates from 1-5 and an overall rating of health
