Physical Activity Intervention (PAI)

Those who opt-in to attend in-person study visits and to undergo COVID testing will also complete an MRI exam and CPET testing. Participants unwilling to have COVID testing done will only complete an MRI exam and home-based testing. All testing will take place either within 6 weeks of initiating systemic treatments or within 8 weeks of completing radiation then at 3 \& 6 months. Patients may participate in 1-2 training sessions per week offered under the direct supervision of a master's level clinical exercise physiologist, as well as 1-2 sessions at home. PAI sessions consist of slow aerobic warm-up, followed by 20 minutes of strength training,15 minutes of progressive intensity aerobic exercise (AE), and then 10 minutes of stretching for cool-down. Participants will have the ability to participate in training sessions facilitated via online channels at home.

OTHER

Healthy Living Control

Patients randomized to the control arm will either attend online sessions via secure video conferencing (e.g. Zoom) or telephone or to come to a centralized meeting location (if safety allows) to participate in organized health workshops. Session attendance will be required 2 times/month (over the 6 months). Make up sessions will be offered for those participants who have to miss a group session. Each session lasts 60 minutes and matches the number of visits made by the PAI group as much as possible.
