There’s so much free mainstream exercise content available to access now, that it can sometimes feel unnecessary to contact a specialist after a cancer diagnosis. However, as someone who was a confident and regular fitness fanatic, I felt lost after my diagnosis in 2018. There was very little information out there to help me know what I could and couldn’t do after all the treatment I’d had. I didn’t feel confident or safe doing certain exercises and needed some reassurance that I wasn’t causing more harm than good. Although encouraging, my oncologist was quite vague on the specifics of exercising, and I couldn’t find a local or online specialist at the time. So, I decided to take matters into my own hands and retrain to support others like me, raising awareness and educating at the same time.
