When colon cancer treatment ends, one question often remains: “What can I do to help keep it from coming back?” An encouraging new study suggests that getting moving could make a meaningful difference.

The program included guidance and ongoing support, giving participants help turning exercise into a regular part of their lives.
For anyone looking for a positive next step after treatment, these findings offer a reason to talk with their care team about getting active.
