7 Reasons Why You Should Exercise After Breast Cancer Treatment - Dr Tasha

In today's video, I am going to talk to Sarah Newman, Founder of Get Me Back, a fitness training company for people affected by cancer. Sarah is cancer and exercise specialist. She returned to this job after her own cancer diagnosis in 2018 and found a real struggle to understand what was safe and effective exercise for her to do after the treatment. She set up her company and has been training women and men over the last 5 years to help them to rebuild their strength and their fitness before, during and after cancer.

I am going to ask her the following questions:
00:00 Introduction
01:18 Why should people even bother exercising?
03:33 Why do we need to do strength training?
05:07 Can you do strength training before the treatment starts and afterwards?

WORRIED ABOUT A BREAST LUMP OR SYMPTOM?
FRUSTRATED AND CONFUSED BY CONFLICTING INFORMATION?
TRYING TO NAVIGATE LIFE AFTER BREAST CANCER DIAGNOSIS AND DON’T KNOW WHERE TO TURN?

Breast health has become an important topic for both women and men. But with a huge amount of conflicting and confusing information out there, it can be hard to find the advice, support and care that you need.

My Breast My Health was created to make understanding breast health easy. Whether you’re looking to learn how to keep your breasts healthy, concerned about new symptoms or learning to live post-diagnosis, you’re in the right place.

Hi, I'm Dr Tasha

I’m a Doctor, Breast Cancer Surgeon and Medical Educator. After 20 years helping people to understand and overcome breast health problems, I’ve seen first hand the fear, frustration and stress that my patients go through.

As a breast specialist with over a decade’s worth of experience, I understand finding the right information, processing a diagnosis, understanding treatment and getting accurate, practical advice as you ride the rollercoaster of emotions can be really tough.

But I’m here to help.

The internet can be a wonderful source of information but when it comes to breast health there’s a lot of inaccurate information out there. Listening to the wrong advice could cause you unnecessary worry or even put your health at risk.

So I wanted to create an accessible hub where you could find useful, accurate and reliable information from a trusted source – a Breast Health Doctor – all in one place.

That’s exactly what you’ll find here on my YouTube Channel.
