A randomized multi-component physical activity intervention for breast cancer survivors.

The research project is a study to assess the effects of a multi-component intervention in
increasing physical activity among breast cancer survivors. Individuals meeting
inclusion/exclusion criteria will be randomized to one of sixteen intervention groups for the
6 months. Intervention components will include print-based education, self-monitoring, Active
Living counseling, supervised exercise sessions, and facility access. Blood samples will be
collected at baseline. Assessments (anxiety, stress, sleep) and sample collection will also
occur at 3 time points during the intervention (Weeks 13 and 25). Changes in physical
activity will be assessed for each intervention group.
