Summary
This study tested whether a 6-week supervised exercise program could improve quality of life and reduce fatigue in 78 breast and colon cancer patients. Participants were randomly assigned to either the exercise program or usual care, and were followed for one year. The main goal was to see if exercise helps patients feel better physically and emotionally.
