Methods: Twenty women (mean age, 45.61±2.71 years) whose treatment had concluded at least 6 months previously underwent a screening to certify their eligibility participate noncompetitive sports. The patients were randomly assigned intervention group (n=10) or control (n=10). Intervention participated 16-week EAT consisting 2 hours activity per week. All tested before after for maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max), fat mass percentage, total body water strength principal muscular groups (measured on five weight-lifting machines [leg press, leg extension, curl, shoulder vertical traction]), quality life using Functional Assessment Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue questionnaire (FACIT-F). Results: After intervention, i...
