High-intensity interval training in breast cancer patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Women with breast cancer and improved survival often experience treatment-related impairments. High-intensity interval training (HIIT) has emerged as a promising exercise therapy modality for adult cancer patients.
