a highly promising young swimmer in 2001 he was diagnosed with leukemia while still in his team. but i was 19 i was focused on the next swimming competition on the next world championships. always thrilling hearts always working hard and all of a sudden i was laying in a hospital bed and i was diagnosed with leukemia felt like a nightmare it felt like it was not me. but it was. a stem cell transplant helped him to escape the nightmare. after 6 months in a hospital bed he was back in his element the pool the 1st couple of years after my treatments i was the liaison i 1st played with my parents 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 in 2008 i won the olympic gold medal. that looks almost like these so there will be moments when i was diagnosed leukemia but i was like no think he was. the utes nightmare and all of us beautiful. piece khattala was also diagnosed with cancer in 2015 doctors found a number of malignant tumors in her breast chemotherapy helped to get the better of the disease but for her there was another vital factor the great outdoors. i. i love it to be outdoors because the inspiration outdoors is amazing that's life

life is not indoors life is outdoors and your you're in immune system is stimulated by being outdoors you need the light immune from the sun for your heart for your health your pregnant. she was still undergoing therapy when she founded outdoor against cancer an organization set up to encourage other cancer sufferers to help themselves through sport and exercise. from insurance training to white lifting or indeed toiling your way up a mountain. to leave ok. and let's start. with the teller is convinced of the positive impact of exercise for cancer patients pay a little burning and x. amount. 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 helping funny men for strong that's a really for me it's an amazing thing ma benefits are not limited to stimulating circulation or strengthening the immune system this kind of sports their appeal is also about boosting your sense of camaraderie and being able to talk about the disease isn't only like they people where you don't need to worry about talking openly about the subject or spending time with them and go on a retreat because 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 on the bench because you can work through a concert hall to school does not kill cancer cells but it does increase the chances of beating it ses peter tulloch. oh my gosh.

martin fun advice has a different perspective he has for choose not fitness training to thank for his survived. or was the most lazy patients that you can imagine and a strange thing is that. my fellow patients they did that fitness course they were fit once because the treatment did not help for them. and i was the lazy patients and i was the one that had the luck to recover. but. i do not believe that the chance of. recovery increases by doing more sports during your treatments. and i think we have to be very careful with not blaming patients that they do not support enough if so sight

unseen tells us that we can fight it's cancer and we can that's a concern with. those people who did not. recover from cancer we tell them that they almost week and that they have lost that's that's right. and i think a month's that's not faith fair. was more scientific points 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 who never got the diagnosis and the 3rd also like most tens of patients for the deep hole i was very tired. i couldn't do gardening i just didn't feel like it i just read a book and i thought that it was chips these potato chips. sport

and exercise cannot directly combat achieve those several 100 studies show that cancer patients who exercise live longer. scans a few sessions they can reduce certain side effects of cancer therapies and ensure that patients are in much fitter through the therapy and evil to cope better with the every day life just gets away after class the preliminary data suggests that physical exercise can lower the risk of relapse. research is currently being conducted to determine which kinds of exercise are most beneficial and one in medical many could be found a drug that is effect if you wouldn't say just take as much as you want the dosage has to be right and. you know that. there is no special anticancer exercise as such depending on the tumour it's the quality and quantity that matter there might be an emphasis on injurious sport or strength training depending on the case

. have got a lot more energy this great. again. so while research has provided valuable insights things could improve on the practical side. right now sports and exercise therapy 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 to help to start the ball rolling and hopefully qualify for prescription. and fun for them. and that is where outdoor against cancer hopes to have. it all denies events like the night hike held similar tiny asli in 6 locations.

after the welcome to our 1st night hike. this hike by a lake outside music is about both exercise and education its roots are funded by the european union in order to increase awareness of sport and cats night tank is about going out in the even in living outdoors and enjoying the beauty of the nature and doing something for your health so they are in a social community they feel comfortable they don't have to be alone at home they do something for their health and against cancer they do something for their fuses and that psych they do something for a positive life so this is our message this is our vision this is my vision and our culture about. martin's fun inviting has his vision when it comes to helping cancer patients.

in the netherlands. more than 100000 people diagnosed cancer year in the big 44 hours since you cannot have the luck to recover that guy in that city huge problem. in 2018 he had a crazy idea the netherlands used to have an 11 city tour a hugely popular speed skating event held on frozen canals it was suspended in 9097 as winters became too warm so damned if i decided to swim the tool in state when i decided to swim the 11 cities who i was not aware how many kilometers to have of levon city to was and i went back home and there was a google link and then i found out it was 200 kilometers while while i was olympic champion tell columbus so the was quite a long things. well maybe if everything works outs maybe

it's possible. his 1st attempts failed after 160 kilometers and knocked off the peg 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 sister to the hospital where my fellow patients did not make it so. it still doesn't feel fair why did i have to walk to recover and why did my fellow patients like for instance not have to look. and then almost some sort of guilds starts almost sissified the kids and with that survivor killed i thought well i want to do everything i can to place funds for conservation to increase the chance

of locks for. future patients funny if i manage to raise some 12000000 euros in donations through his very own in every city to treasures funds that he's passing on to cancer research projects. that. martin struck there may not believe in the direct healing powers of sport but he has shown that sport can help to battle the disease.
