Summary

This pilot study tests the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of an 8-week, 3-arm pilot exercise trial in which 45 breast cancer survivors will be randomized to high-intensity interval training (HIIT; n=15), moderate-intensity aerobic training (MOD; n=15), or Usual Care (UC; n=15).

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

High-Intensity Interval Training

HIIT is a type of training in which short periods of high-intensity anaerobic exercise (1-4 minutes at 80-95% of VO2peak) are alternated with less intense aerobic recovery periods (1-3 minutes at 50-60% VO2peak). Individually-tailored exercise prescriptions will be developed based upon each participant's baseline maximal graded exercise test (heart rate corresponding with %VO2 peak) and symptom limitation. Sessions will be progressive in nature such that the volume of exercise (i.e., number and intensity of intervals) increases across weeks. Intervals will progress from a heart rate corresponding with 75% VO2peak in Week 1 to 90-95% VO2peak in Weeks 5-8. Sessions will be \~30 minutes in length. Indoor cycling is the primary mode of exercise.

BEHAVIORAL

Moderate-Intensity Exercise

Individually-tailored exercise prescriptions will be developed based upon each participant's baseline maximal graded exercise test (heart rate corresponding with %VO2 peak) and symptom limitation. Sessions will be progressive in nature such that the volume of exercise increases across weeks. Indoor cycling is the primary mode of exercise. Sessions will include moderate-intensity cycling that progresses from a heart rate corresponding with 55-60% VO2peak for 30 minutes in Week 1 to 65-70% VO2peak for 45-50 minutes in Weeks 5-8.
