Summary

This study will examine whether a mobile app increases exercise levels in breast cancer survivors after treatments, reduces fatigue, and improves physical functions. This experimental study has 200 participants placed into one of two groups. One group will be asked to use the cancer-specific exercise app over 12 weeks, and the other group will receive the cancer exercise guidelines. Exercise will be measured by self-report questionnaires before and after the intervention and three months later. Self-report questionnaires will measure fatigue and quality of life. This research will determine whether a simple mobile app helps increase exercise in breast cancer survivors. Mobile apps to increase exercise may be provided to all breast cancer survivors after treatments to help them recover and possibly improve survival.

Interventions

OTHER

Exercise

Participants will be asked to use a cancer-specific exercise mobile app for 12 weeks. The program is designed to achieve the goal of exercising for at least 90 minutes per week, including aerobic exercise three times a week and resistance training twice a week. While exercise equipment is not required, the app supports the optional use of an elastic resistance band or a pair of dumbbells. The app comes with various features to support the exercise journey. Participants will be able to track their progress through periodic testing, access a library of resources that includes information on exercise, and log any additional workouts they perform outside the app. The exercise prescription will be tailored to daily fatigue levels that will be rated before each workout. This ensures that the program is customized to meet individual needs and abilities.
