The Force Program: The Proven Way to Fight Cancer Through Movement and Exercise Book

Exercise and lifestyle play important roles in preventing cancer, so it's only logical that they benefit cancer treatment as well. The FORCE Program (FORCE is an acronym for "Focus on Rehabilitation and Cancer Education") shows cancer survivors the best ways to exercise, eat right, and reduce stress to assist healing. "The FORCE program is a plan for living and dealing optimistically and actively with cancer," write the authors (Jeff Berman, cancer survivor, marathon runner, and founder of the FORCE program; oncologist Fran Fleegler; and fitness writer John Hanc), who give a motivating pep talk to get you ready for "lift off," then help you plan for a change. The exercise program is simple and structured: walking plus seven illustrated strength and flexibility exercises for four to six weeks, with more added as you progress. The nutrition program emphasizes foods that have been found to have cancer-fighting properties. The authors also describe several stress-management exercises. If you're already a committed exerciser, you're likely to find this program too elementary, but if you're a cancer survivor who needs encouragement and a plan, this book will get you exercising, eating better, and enjoying your life more. --Joan Price Read More
