Study Details

The study will use a cross-sectional study design with a follow-up 2-arm randomized controlled trial with that has assessments at baseline, post-intervention (i.e., Week 12), and 3-months post-intervention (i.e., Week 24).

Arms

  • Experimental: Intervention (Supervised exercise)
    The individualized program is based on participants' baseline 5-repetition maximum muscular strength assessment and is aligned with current cancer-specific exercise recommendations. The resistance program will follow the FITT principle (frequency, intensity, time, and type): Frequency. Participants will aim for 3 resistance exercise sessions per week. Intensity. Resistance exercise intensity will have a schedule for increased progression by both load via increased weight and volume via increased repetitions and sets. If participants are not able to increase resistance loads as scheduled, they will remain at their current load and volume until the next scheduled increase. 50% of 5-repetition maximum for upper and lower body. 3 sets of 8 to 12 repetitions. 60% of 5-repetition maximum for upper and lower body. 3 sets of 8 to 12 repetitions. 70% of 5-repetition maximum for upper and lower body. 4 sets of 8 to 12 repetitions.
  • Active Comparator: Control (waitlist)
    Participants randomized to the waitlist control condition will be on a waiting list for 24 weeks. Participants in waitlist control condition will complete measures on the same schedule as intervention participants. After 24 weeks, participants will be offered to participate in the online sessions with an exercise trainer using Zoom twice per week for 12- weeks. The sessions will be 30 to 45minutes in length.
