Study Arms (2)
Attention Control Group
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will randomized using incorrect baseline information.
InItervention Group: Remote Implementation of Supervised Exercise for Young Adult
EXPERIMENTALParticipants will randomized using incorrect baseline information.
Interventions
Participants will receive energy conservation (EC) counseling, behavior coaching, and exercise training.
During weeks 1-6 and 1 time a week during Weeks 7-12, participants will receive a video call which will last about 60 minutes.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Is currently between the ages of 18-39 years
- Their primary brain tumor was diagnosed at age 15-39 years
- Is 6 months to \<5 years post curative treatment
- Has been treated with chemotherapy and radiation, given most patients receive both therapies.
- Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness therapy (FACIT)-Fatigue ≤ 43. FACIT-Fatigue will be used as a screener because this 13-item scale can be completed relatively quickly in clinic
- Currently engage in \<150 minutes of PA and \< 2 sessions of muscle strengthening exercise per week (assessed by Godin Leisure-Time PA Questionnaire)
- Must be able to speak, write, and read English
- No exercise contraindication as assessed by screening with the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire PAR-Q+. In addition, participants' care teams will be notified of their participation in the study.
- Must be able to provide informed consent/assent.
You may not qualify if:
- Non-English speaking
- Screen failure for exercise safety
- Underlying unstable cardiac or pulmonary disease or symptomatic cardiac disease
- Recent fracture or acute musculoskeletal injury that precludes ability to participate in supervised exercise training sessions
- History of underlying chronic disease, secondary malignances, germline genetic syndrome, or recurrent disease requiring re-irradiation of the brain
- Cognitive and/or major sensory deficits that would impede the completion of research activities and assessments as deemed by the clinical team.
- Self-report of pregnancy
- Prisoners
- Documented developmental disorders (e.g., Autism) or major psychotic illness (e.g., schizophrenia)
