(7/8) 6️⃣ Fitter, stronger survivors live longer Across ~47,000 people with cancer, higher muscle strength + cardiorespiratory fitness → 31–46% fewer deaths, especially in advanced lung & digestive cancers. PMID: 39837589

(6/8) 5️⃣ Cardio + strength together Adults who do both regular aerobic exercise and ≥2 days/week of muscle-strengthening have ~28% lower cancer mortality vs inactive adults (HR ≈0.72). PMID: 34051796

(4/8) 3️⃣ After breast cancer For survivors, every +10 MET-h/week of activity (~3 brisk 30-min walks) → 14% lower breast-cancer mortality (HR 0.86). PMID: 36279903

(3/8) 2️⃣ Fewer metastatic cancers High-intensity aerobic training in mid-life was linked to ≈72% lower risk of metastatic cancer, with human cohort + mouse data showing an “exercise-induced metabolic shield” in distant organs. PMID: 36084256

(2/8) 1️⃣ Lower cancer risk Regular physical activity → ~10–20% less cancer overall and ~20% lower cancer mortality in large cohorts. PMIDs: 31877085, 27183032, 37743572

Are women dying because CPR dummies don’t have breasts? 💔 Women are less likely to survive cardiac arrest – and CPR training may be a factor. Duke data: women are 14% less likely to receive bystander CPR. Many bystanders admit they felt uneasy touching a woman’s chest or
