Fitness Coaching For Cancer Survivors
Supporting you to exercise safely after cancer
Survivor Fitness
I’ve survived cancer, but now what ? I want to feel fantastic. But I don’t. I know doing exercise will help me feel better but I don’t know what to focus on or how hard to push. I want to get fit but I don’t know where to start or what’s safe. I don’t recognise my body and I’m struggling with motivation. I still have some side effects from my treatment. I just want to feel like me again but I’ve lost my confidence.

“Cancer changes more than our health – it can change how we feel in our bodies, our confidence, our energy and our sense of what's possible. Exercise is one of the most powerful tools we have to support recovery, helping to rebuild strength, improve fitness, reduce fatigue, support mental wellbeing and restore independence. Just as importantly, movement can help us reconnect with our bodies and regain trust in what they can do. The goal isn't perfection or pushing harder; it's finding a sustainable way to move that supports long-term health, resilience and quality of life..”
Exercise is one of the most powerful tools available to cancer survivors, with benefits that extend far beyond fitness. Research shows that cancer survivors who are the most physically active have reduced recurrence rates (up to 35%) and a lower risk of dying from their disease compared with those who remain inactive. Regular exercise is also associated with lower rates of recurrence, improved body composition, better weight management and greater muscle strength. Importantly, strength training helps rebuild lean muscle mass lost during treatment, supporting metabolism, bone health, physical function and long-term independence. The evidence is clear: movement isn't just about feeling better today - it's an investment in future health, recovery and quality of life.
“The exercises were tailored to my needs. Safe. And manageable !”

Cancer coaching: what to expect
Let’s start with a free 30 minute chat to see if we’re a good fit. If you decide that cancer coaching is for you, you’ll complete an extensive health and lifestyle questionnaire before our first consultation.
Our first cancer exercise session is a 60 minute informal chat. From which I will understand more about who you are and what your life looks like - now and before you were diagnosed with cancer. How does exercise, nutrition and wellbeing fit in? How are you feeling? What are you currently struggling with? We’ll agree realistic timings, goals and homework.
After each session, I will share notes, videos and online programming. Normally, we meet every 3-4 weeks online, with lots of contact in between.
Outside our regular video calls, I will follow your fitness progress closely via whichever online platform or training app we agree on.
We will chat regularly on whatsapp, phone or email. I am a real human (!), a cancer survivor and a cancer exercise specialist, with a passion for helping you. I’m here to answer all your questions, feedback or worries.
Your cancer exercise programme will be designed around what exercise YOU enjoy and what time you have available. It will be adapted to your side effects, treatment stage, lifestyle and your goals. It’s flexible and adaptable.
It’s a completely tailor-made exercise and wellness programme, just for YOU.
FAQs
-
Yes, it’s possible to split the payment for cancer fitness coaching into 3 equal blocks, payable over the first 3 months. Just contact me and let me know if that’s what you would prefer.
-
Yes, if life or cancer treatment get in the way of sticking to an exercise programme, it’s absolutely possible to pause coaching. A package of 6 sessions is normally over 6 to 9 months, which gives us some room to pause and flex as needed.
-
That depends on what you mean! Your programme will be 100% tailormade to you, your body, your lifestyle, your available time - and what you enjoy. It will be designed so that you CAN do it :) … if you’re not sure about your technique for a particular exercise, I am on hand to watch you on video and offer corrections, suggestions or an alternative exercise. If you can’t do the exercise because life gets in the way - that’s life - no problem. But my job is to encourage you and hold you accountable!
-
I am not a registered dietician or clinical nutritionist so I cannot provide menu plans or discuss supplements or ‘food as medicine’. I am very clear to stay in my lane. However, I have a nutrition diploma and I can help you set goals, review what you eat and stay on track with realistic and achievable weight loss. It is possible to lose weight after cancer treatment - even on hormone therapy - with the right combination of exercise, nutrition and lifestyle choices including sleep and stress reduction.
-
No, sorry! :)
Before you start cancer exercise coaching, we will have had at least one intro call (free of charge), so you will have a very good idea of what to expect.
-
Yes, absolutely! If you would like to speak to one of my current or previous clients, please don’t hesitate to ask - I would be delighted to put you in touch.
-
Absolutely! Buying cancer exercise coaching for a loved one who is going through or who has been through cancer is a lovely idea. You can either choose a whole package or I can offer a one-off coaching session with an intro exercise plan. Get in touch to discuss options and prices.
-
The idea is to do 6 sessions over 6 months, which will arm you with the knowledge, experience and power you need to fly free and carry on exercising on your own.
However, I understand that this is a big commitment and I also offer one off coaching sessions with an intro exercise programme. Get in touch for more info.
