Book Description
Background/Purpose: The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected the mental health and wellbeing of college students, as well as behaviors such as physical activity. Exercise is Medicine On Campus (EIM-OC) calls upon universities and colleges to promote physical activity as a vital sign of health. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reach and effectiveness of the virtual EIM-OC campaign and its effects on college students' physical activity behaviors and selected social cognitive theory (SCT) variables. As a secondary aim, we also assessed physical activity behavior and barriers among college students during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: We conducted an online baseline survey at the end of September 2020 and a follow up survey at the beginning of November 2020. A total of 469 K-State students (n = 362 females; n = 82 kinesiology majors) completed the baseline survey, and 337 of these participants completed the follow-up survey. Throughout October (EIM-OC month), K-State conducted a variety of virtual events to promote physical activity on campus, including Lunch and Learn presentations by Kinesiology faculty, weekly physical activity challenges, a monthlong Bingo challenge, daily social media posts, and a Distinguished Lecture Series presentation. Changes in physical activity and SCT variables (self-efficacy, self-regulation, outcome expectations, and perceived community support) from baseline to follow-up were assessed using parametric and non-parametric tests. Results: Of the 337 individuals who completed the follow up survey, 97 (28.8%) said they had heard of EIM-OC month at K-State. Kinesiology students were significantly more likely to have heard of EIM-OC than non-Kinesiology students ([chi]2 = 129.8, p

Book Description
Cancer diagnosis and treatment doesn't have to be a passive experience, and it shouldn't be. Dr. Kathryn Schmitz's Moving Through Cancer introduces a 21-day program of strength training and exercise for cancer prevention and recovery. Go from diagnosis to thriving with this empowering guide to using strength training and exercise to improve your mental and physical health before, during, and after cancer diagnosis and treatment. This groundbreaking program will show you how to use exercise and movement to: • Recover more quickly from surgery • Withstand chemotherapy (or other drug treatments) or radiation with fewer side effects • Bounce back to daily life following cancer treatments • Prevent loss of function or fitness due to treatment • Return to work more quickly or stay at work throughout treatment • Protect against late side effects of treatment that come years after diagnosis Leading exercise oncology researcher Dr. Kathryn Schmitz shows you how to prepare for cancer treatment and begin regularly exercising in just 21 days using five key steps: Move, Lift, Eat, Sleep, and Log. Both informative and practical, Moving Through Cancer explains the science of healing and prevention and delivers a paradigm-shifting message for patients, doctors, and caregivers about using exercise to live with and beyond cancer. FOR READERS OF: Anticancer Living and The Cancer-Fighting Kitchen. A PRACTITIONER AND CAREGIVER: Dr. Kathryn Schmitz is a pracademic (practitioner + academic) and a caregiver: In 2010, the publication of one of her trials in The New England Journal of Medicine and the Journal of the American Medical Association overturned years of entrenched dogma and conventional wisdom that told breast cancer survivors to avoid upper body exercise. In 2016, Dr. Schmitz's wife, Sara, was diagnosed with stage 3 squamous cell carcinoma—she is currently NED (no evidence of disease) and cancer free. Moving Through Cancer is inspired by Dr. Schmitz's professional and personal experience with cancer. HELPS PATIENTS AND CAREGIVERS TO COMBAT THE POWERLESSNESS OF THE CANCER JOURNEY: Dr. Schmitz's empowering message will not only resonate with anyone who has been diagnosed with cancer but with their family and loved ones as well. Dr. Schmitz is able to give life back to readers by providing results that include better sleep, better sex, less chemo brain, reduced nausea, and improved recovery. PARADIGM-SHIFTING PROTOCOL: Moving Through Cancer is the center of Dr. Schmitz's campaign to have doctors prescribing exercise to cancer patients as common practice by 2029. THE FIRST MAINSTREAM EXERCISE-FOR-CANCER BOOK: Until now, exercise-for-cancer books have been limited to academic approaches or one-cancer-specific (breast) or one-exercise specific (yoga, pilates) books. Moving Through Cancer is for all cancer patients and survivors and their caregivers. GREAT FOR THE CLASSROOM: Students and teachers will want to use these techniques in their classrooms to provide a better understanding of how to treat cancer patients. Perfect for: 18+, Health enthusiasts, rehab, exercise, academia, medical professionals

Book Description
Introduction: Exercise Is Medicine (EIM) addresses barriers to primary care-based physical activity (PA) promotion by leveraging technology-assisted decision support built into the electronic medical record to help providers integrate PA assessment, discussions, and prescription into routine care. This implementation science study describes the multi-stakeholder process used to adapt EIM for the UC San Diego Student-Run Free Clinic Project (SRFCP), led by medical students to serve an uninsured, primarily Spanish-speaking Latinx population), and evaluate it with the RE-AIM framework. Methods/Intervention: Adaptations to the EIM workflow to align with the SRFCP were made using a multi-stakeholder engaged process and tracked with the Framework for Reporting of Adaptations and Modifications Extended (FRAME-IS). The program was evaluated with the RE-AIM framework. Results: Process and content adaptations facilitated the integration of tailored components into existing workflows and alignment with patients' dominant Spanish language. Reach and adoption were high, with 62.4% and 89% of patient visits having EMR-documented physical activity vital sign (PAVS: minutes/week) and PA discussions, and 57% agreeing to health coaching. Among all who had more than one PAVS recorded, the mean significantly increased by 18 minutes/week during the third month of the intervention. Patients (86%) interviewed recalled exercise discussions. Medical student questionnaires indicated improvements in confidence of exercise discussions, and decreasing perceived barriers, while implementation team surveys indicated promising acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility. Conclusion: Adapting and implementing EIM in an under-resourced community-based clinic demonstrated promising effectiveness and sustainability. Medical students felt confident about overcoming barriers to discussing exercise, while patients found EIM helpful.

Book Description
This book analyzes the role of health apps to promote medicalization. It considers whether their use is an individual matter, rather than a political and social one, with some apps based on a medical framework positively promoting physical activity and meditation, or whether data-sharing can foster social discrimination.
