Just wondered if anyone else has tried the new miracle that is the “Ifit”? It’s a power plate that you stand on and it basically shakes you up and gives you the equivelant of a 1 hour gym workout in 10 mins. I really fancy trying it after hearing so much positive feedback from friends and have been asked to go along for a session to try it. Im about to start my radiotherapy soon and wondered if been shaken about for 10 minutes on the Ifit twice a week would have any affect? Anyone help?
i dont think it will harm you at all.If you dont normally exercise and do something intense for an hour then you with or without rads you might be tired and sore afterwards. And a session out with friends is the sort of tonic everyone needs. I am at the end of my third week of rads and have not noticed any lessening in energy. If this session is next week and you will be right at the begining of your treatment you should be fine.
I was told excercise was good to do during rads, so i started walking to the hospital and back. but after the second week i got bored and it has poured with rain everyday, so now I am back enjoying a life as a couch potoato.
