11:18 am
a lot and they were complaining to my doctor that i was not doing a thing. and then i started to enjoy exercises and swimming a bit again and to make a long story short. a couple of years later 2000 mates i won the olympic gold medal. look almost like this so there will be moments when i was diagnosed the keep me up but i was diagnosed the chemo was. buttes nightmare and i would force you to forget . tyler was also diagnosed with cancer 2015 doctors found a number of malignant tumors in her breast chemotherapy helped to get the better of

the deceased but for her there was another vital factor the great outdoors. i love it to be outdoors because the inspiration outdoors is. that life is not indoors life is outdoors and. you're in immune system is stimulated by being outdoors you need the my time in from the sun for your heart health. program. she was still undergoing therapy when she found out i get scammed sat organization set up to encourage other cancer sufferers to help themselves. through sport and exercise. from insurance training to quite lifting or indeed toiling your way up a mountain. to lead the ok. let's start. from tyler is convinced of the positive impact of exercise for cancer
11:20 am
patients ok a little burning. in the ground. all those ladies developed cancer a few years ago and they started to do sports and they never stopped doing sports they are healthy funny menthol strong that's a really for me it's an amazing thing benefits are not limited to stimulating circulation or strengthening our immune system this kind of sports therapy is also about boosting your sense of camaraderie and being able to talk about the disease isn't only like they people way you don't need to vary about talking openly about the subject or spending time with them and go on a retreat it's empowering to see these people here after work to. bring even if i'm tired if they can do it so can i and then when she got through to come to. school it does not kill cancer cells but it does increase the chances of beating it

say st peter tulloch. martin from the vitamin has a different perspective he has for not 3 you're straining to thank for his survival . i was the most see patients that you can imagine and it's thanks thing is it's. my fellow patients they did the fitness course they were a good fit once. the treatment did not help for them. and i was the lasik patients and i was the one that had the luck to recover. but. i do not believe that the chance of. recovering
11:22 am
increases by doing more sports during your treatments. and i think we have to be careful with not blaming patients that they do not support enough if society tells us that we can fight it's cancer that we can better cancer and with. those people who could not. recover from cancer will tell them that they are almost weak and that they've lost that's that's all. and i think nots that stuff a fair. amount is from the scientific point of view over a decade ago germany's national center for human diseases in hyderabad began examining the effect of physical exercise on cancer patients. in 2006 got the diagnosis and the photos but most patients for the deep hole i was very tired. i couldn't do gardening i just didn't feel like

i just read a book and i started eating chips these potato chips. getting. into the stomach. and also to. sport an exercise cannot directly combat achieve those several 100 studies show that cancer patients who exercise live longer. kinds of fuel efficient it can reduce certain side effects of cancer therapy and ensure that patients emerge fitter through the therapy and evil to cope better with the every day lives so that after class the preliminary data suggests that. physical exercise can lower the risk of relapse i think research is currently being conducted to determine which kinds of exercise are most beneficial and then in many many could be found a drug that is effective you wouldn't say just take as much as you want the dosage has to be right and then you know that. there is no special anti cancer exercise

such depending on which it's the quality and quantity that matter there might be an emphasis on insurance sport or strength training depending on the case. the system . moves have got a lot more energy this great. alone stuff. so while research has provided valuable insights things could improve on the practical side. right now sports and exercise therapy and not part of regular health insurance coverage in germany there are various reasons but the insurance company should make a move and say that they'll pay for it but we wouldn't get all patients included it would help to start the ball rolling and hopefully qualify for prescription. and one for the. country. and that is where outdoor against cancer hopes to have. it all denies events like the night hike held simle tamia city in 6

out it was 200 kilometers while while i was olympic champion tell kilometers so that was quite a long thing and i thought well maybe if everything works out maybe it's possible. his 1st attempt failed after 160 kilometers and a lot of pain but in the summer of 2019 he managed the full 200. almost 4 days in the water with only brief breaks for a snooze on the escort but. why did he do it. for my history. hospital where my fellow patients did not make it so. it still doesn't feel fair why did i have to like to leave and why did my fellow patients my friends did not have to look and then almost some sort of guilds start it's almost as a fight for the kids and with that survivor killed off ottawa i want to do
