In each episode of Oncology Revolution, we bring together health and wellness experts to explore topics that go beyond conventional cancer treatment, addressing the impact of lifestyle on patients’ quality of life and longevity.
In this episode, we’re joined by Professor Robert Newton — a global leader in exercise oncology — for an eye-opening conversation about how physical activity is transforming cancer treatment. We explore the science behind exercise as a medical intervention, from myokines and muscle preservation to improved immunity and survival outcomes. Rob shares insights from decades of research, including a landmark study showing that exercise can extend survival by up to 37% — results comparable to leading chemotherapy agents. We also discuss the real-world challenges of bringing exercise into routine oncology care, the need for high-intensity and tailored programs, and why it’s time to stop seeing movement as optional. Rob outlines his vision for a precision exercise oncology model and shares practical strategies for clinicians to integrate exercise safely and effectively into cancer care.
