Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Aerobic and Resistance Exercise in Breast Cancer Patients Receiving Adjuvant Chemotherapy: A Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial
Kerry S. Courneya,Roanne J. Segal,John R. Mackey,Karen A. Gelmon,Robert D. Reid,Christine M. Friedenreich,Aliya B. Ladha,Caroline Proulx,Jeff K. Vallance,Kirstin Lane,Yutaka Yasui,Donald C. McKenzie +11 more
TL;DR: Neither aerobic nor resistance exercise significantly improved cancer-specific QOL in breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy, but they did improve self-esteem, physical fitness, body composition, and chemotherapy completion rate without causing lymphedema or significant adverse events.
Journal ArticleDOI
Randomized Controlled Trial of the Effects of Print Materials and Step Pedometers on Physical Activity and Quality of Life in Breast Cancer Survivors
TL;DR: Breast cancer-specific PA print materials and pedometers may be effective strategies for increasing PA and QoL in breast cancer survivors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Associations of objectively-assessed physical activity and sedentary time with depression: NHANES (2005-2006).
Jeff K. Vallance,Elisabeth A. H. Winkler,Paula Gardiner,Genevieve N. Healy,Genevieve N. Healy,Brigid M. Lynch,Neville Owen,Neville Owen +7 more
TL;DR: Lower odds of depression were associated with increasing moderate-to-vigorous-intensity physical activity and decreasing sedentary time, at least within overweight/obese adults.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kerry S. Courneya,Christine M. Friedenreich,H. Arthur Quinney,Anthony Fields,Lee W. Jones,Jeff K. Vallance,Adrian Fairey +6 more
TL;DR: The findings of this study may have utility for promoting exercise in this population both inside and outside of clinical trials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kerry S. Courneya,Roanne J. Segal,Karen A. Gelmon,Robert D. Reid,John R. Mackey,Christine M. Friedenreich,Caroline Proulx,Kirstin Lane,Aliya B. Ladha,Jeff K. Vallance,Donald C. McKenzie +10 more
TL;DR: Adherence to supervised exercise training was predicted by unique aspects of the location/center, disease stage, aerobic fitness, and depression but not motivational variables, which may have implications for improving adherence during breast cancer chemotherapy.
