Listen "Movement is life"
Episode Synopsis
In today’s episode, we have a special guest, Jessica Watzek, joining us to talk about all things movement and exercise when undergoing cancer treatments. Jess is an exercise physiologist and has been training Lee throughout his first six weeks of treatment. We explore her incredible knowledge and experience, discuss the positive impacts of exercise on our bodies (and minds) while undergoing cancer treatment, and what the research is telling us in this space. We also speak to Lee about finishing his lifetime worth of radiotherapy and how the big night away went for him and Laura post-treatment. You can follow Jess on Instagram @jesswatzek.aep For advice on how to exercise safely with your particular diagnosis, treatment or current restrictions make sure you consult your treating physician and clinical exercise professionals for further help.
