20 years ago martin van divided was a highly promising young swimmer in 2001 he was diagnosed with leukemia. while still in his teens, with 19 of us focused on the next swimming competition on the next will championships, are always trading hogs always working hogs. and all of a sudden i was laying in hospital bed and i was diagnosed. 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 doctor 6 months in a hospital bed. he was back in his ellamin the pool. the 1st couple. yes. after my

treatment i was to lation. i 1st played with my parents to lots and they were complaining to my doctor that that 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, too late. i want olympic gold medal ah, look almost like diesel moments when i was diagnosed leukemia. but when i was diagnosed leukemia it was a huge nightmare. and now it was beautiful ah peach. catallo 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 love it to be outdoors because the inspiration outdoors is amazing. that site life is not indoors, life is outdoors and your immune system is stimulated by being outdoors. you need the lights coming from the sun for your heart health laugh christine. she was still undergoing therapy when she found it outdoor against cancer and organizations set up to encourage other cancer sufferers to help themselves through sport, and exercise from endurance training to weightlifting, or indeed toiling your way up a mountain. ah, okay. let's start. pete's got ha,

is convinced of the positive impact of exercise for cancer patients. a little burning and excellent and love with all those ladies developed cancer a few years ago. and they started to the sports and they never stopped doing sports . they are healthy, funny methods throng that so early for me it's an amazing thing. my benefits are not limited to stimulating circulation or strengthening the 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 larger they people way you don't need to worry about talking openly about the subject or spending time with them. and i wish we could, it's empowering to see these people here after work to the office. but even if i'm tired and if they can do it or so can i left a lot of them on the bench bins, yukon, m a con augustine went to consult a school does not kill cancer cells,

but it goes to increase the chances of beating it say's petrov tullet with martin finance widen, has a different perspective. he has fortune not fitness training to thank for his survival. i was the most lazy patients that you can imagine. and his thanks thing is that's my fellow patients. they didn't fitness course, they were the fit once, but the treatment did not help for them. and i was delay she patients and i was the one that had the luck to think of them. i do not believe that that chance off the golf lee in cases by doing

more sports, doing your treatments and i think we have to be very careful with not blaming patients that they do not support enough. if society tells us that the weekend fights can then and we can battle cancer, and when you tell those people who do not pick up from, can sweet, tell them that they almost weak and at a loss that battle and i think that's not, that's not a fair, what's the scientific point of view over a decade ago, germany's national center for to my diseases in height bag begun examining the effect of physical exercise on cancer patients in 2016 and i got the diagnosis and that sort of like most cancer patients, they fall in

a deep hole. i was very tired. i couldn't do gardening, i just didn't feel like i just read a book or, and i started eating chips, these potato chips. i was getting fatter, sophisticated stomach. i lost a few sport and exercise not directly combat a tumor, although several 100 studies show that cancer patients who exercise live longer can their fuel efficiency. it can reduce certain side effects of cancer therapies and ensure that patients are image fred are through the therapy theory and i able to coat better with their everyday lives. as gifts of i asked class preliminary data suggests that physical exercise can lower the risk of relapse in his anger. research is currently being conducted to determine which kinds of exercise are most beneficial. and then in many how many re found a drug that is affect, if you wouldn't say, just take as much as you want, the dosage has to be right and then on various moccasin out of young there is no

special anti cancer exercise as such, depending on the tumor, it's the quality and quantity that matter. there might be an emphasis on endurance sport or strength training, depending on the case. workers loyal system or moose. i've got a lot more energy is great. that certainly super 1000 again and again. oh stop. so while research has provided valuable insights, things could improve on the practical side as an actor a little so that right now, sports and exercise therapy and not parts of regular health insurance coverage in germany. there are various reasons i think, but the insurance company should make a move and say that they'll pay for it with my b wouldn't get all patients included. but it helped to start the ball rolling and hopefully qualify for prescription nomic off the map and beacon and stanford from speakers done controlscan. and that is where outdoor against cancer hopes to

help it organizes events like the night hike, hold simultaneously in 6 locations. ah, welcome to our 1st night hike. this hike by a lake outside munich is about both exercise and education. it's also funded by the european union in order to increase awareness of sport and cancel. my pike is about going out in the evening, 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're doing something for the health and against cancer. they're doing something for their fuses and depth, like they do something for a positive life. so this is our message. this is our vision. this is my vision and

i will come for that with martin from the vitamin has his own vision. when it comes to helping cancer patients, lou ah, in the netherlands, there are more than 100000 people diagnosed cancer for you. and the big, 14 thousands do not have to like to recover and they die. and it sits a huge problem. in 2018, he had a crazy idea. the netherlands used to have an 11 city tour, a hugely popular speedskating event held unfrozen canals. it was suspended in 1997 as winter's became too warm. so can they fight and decided to swim little instead, when i decided to swim, the 11th city to i was not aware how many kilometers do you have of 11 city to was

. and i went back home and i was googling and, and then i, i found out it was 200 kilometers. wow, wow. wow. i wasn't big jumped in 10 kilometers. so that was quite a long thing before. well, maybe if everything works out, maybe is possible. his 1st attempt failed off to 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 boat. but why did he do it? ah, for my history in the hospital where my fellow patience did not make it, but it still doesn't feel fan. why did i have to luck to the golfer and i did my fellow patients. my friends did not have to luck and then almost some sort of

guilds started home, also suffice for kids. and with that survivor guild, i thought, well, i want to do everything i can to raise funds for cancer, the foods to increase the chance of luck for her future patients. honey, if i hadn't managed to raise some 12000000 euros in donations through his very own 1162 long pressure sponge that he's passing on to cancer research projects. ah . marking funny if i may not believe in the direct healing powers of sport. but he has shown that sport can how to battle the disease. ah
