No, I think the question is answered, and it should be off-trial standard of care. We just need the resources and the people to do it - that is slowly improving due to great research and advocacy.

So important that we support exercise, diet, sleep for patients and healthcare workers @cmcottrell @ExerciseClinics @macmillancancer @ProstateUK @APCCC_Lugano @PCFnews @HumaForHealth @JikoniLondon @MovemberAUS

For some living with cancer, exercise at all is impossible; but for others it can be a huge benefit physically and mentally.
Organisations such as @MOVEcharity around the country are a great way to get help exercising if you’re affected by cancer.

While it's still dark and cold outside, why not stay inside, grab your trainers and give our online exercise video a try!
With increasing evidence about the importance of exercise when you have prostate cancer, give it a go!
