Summary

Androgen Deprivation Therapy is a commonly used treatment for men with Prostate Cancer. Unfortunately this can lead to functional decline, fatigue, increased body fatness, loss of lean body tissue and impaired QOL. Previous research has demonstrated the exercise can may reduce fatigue and improve QOL in men on ADT. This study will evaluate whether aerobic versus resistance exercise over a 24 week period of training will reduce morbidity and improve QOL in men receiving radiation plus or minus ADT with curative intent
