Combined Aerobic and Resistance Training in Breast Cancer Survivors: A Randomized, Controlled Pilot Trial

Abstract: The purpose of this pilot study was to examine the effects of a combined cardiorespiratory and resistance exercise training program of short duration on the cardiorespiratory fitness, strength endurance, task specific functional muscle capacity, body composition and quality of life (QOL) in women breast cancer survivors. Sixteen subjects were randomly assigned to either a training (n = 8; age: 50 +/- 5 yrs) or control non-exercising group (n = 8; age: 51 +/- 10 yrs). The training group followed an 8-week exerc… Show more

“…Therefore, there is some overlap between the studies. No meta-analyses or systematic reviews were found but nine randomized controlled studies reported on the effect of exercise training on muscle strength [53,56,67,69,70,[72][73][74][75]. The controlled studies found are presented in Tables 1-4.…”

“…With respect to the content it appeared that the programmes offered were quite similar. All programmes consisted of aerobic exercise modes such as cycling and walking [7,[48][49][50][51][52]54,55,57,58], and two programmes combined cardiovascular training with muscle resistance training [53,56]. Most programmes used a moderate to high aerobic training intensity with a training heart rate at 50-80% of the maximal heart rate (MHR), at 50-80% of V O 2max or at 50-70% of the heart rate reserve (HRR), in line with the ASCM guidelines [14].…”

“…En un programa de intervención de ejercicio concurrente de fuerza y resistencia en sujetos supervivientes a distintos tipos de cáncer se ha comprobado que el aumento en los niveles de fuerza se asocia con mejoras en la calidad de vida percibida por los sujetos tras el programa de entrenamiento (142 (VO 2pico ), la fuerza de las extremidades inferiores y superiores, la capacidad funcional (medida a través de un Sit and stand test) y la composición corporal (disminución de la masa grasa e incremento de la masa magra) (143).…”

“…Research has shown that moderate-intensity physical activity interventions can be safe, both during treatment (Dimeo et al 1999;Courneya et al 2007;Schwartz and Winters-Stone 2009) and after treatment Herrero et al 2006;Pekmezi & DemarkWahnefried, 2011). With this knowledge, it is now recommended that cancer survivors undertake 150 minutes of moderate-vigorous activity per week as would be recommended for the general population (ACSM, 2010;Campbell et al, 2011;Doyle et al, 2006).…”
