Cancer Recovery Program

An online cancer recovery
program tailored to you!

Cancer recovery is a difficult process that involves many treatment providers while undergoing therapy. However, what happens when the treatment plan is “finished?”

We understand that people need help even after they have completed their therapy. That is why we developed Healthy Fitness Gateway as a way for you to bridge the gap between intensive care to everyday life. We are here to provide a plan of attack to get you mentally, physically, and nutritionally ready to live life after treatment, and even during it.

What you'll get from our program:

+ Self-directed online fitness program that will teach you workout routines, and keep you challenged throughout the process

+ One-on-one online interactions with a trainer to help you customize your plan, assess your fitness progress, and make recommendations as needed

+ Introduction into mindfulness and how the practice will increase overall health

+ On-site group classes at a care provider (only at participating treatment providers, please ask your physician if they are a HFG partner)

+ 24/7 Access to a library of training videos

+ Nutritional guidelines & sample meal plans to keep you progressing in health!

+ Availability to increase the number of private sessions with a trainer to ramp up your path to wellness

What are people saying about our program:

This program has helped me to learn new forms of exercise, increase my protein intake. It has also increased my confidence in my recovery and in working to get back in shape. It has also been a great stress reliever because of the sense of community I have felt with the other survivors.

I am 48 years old. This program has changed my life I have a lot more strength and confidence and the ability to do anything I want. Before the program I couldn't walk up and down stairs one foot at a time now I can. I was nervous that I wouldn't be able to do some of the exercises because chemo takes so much out of you but I did and I really improved.

The program has truly changed my life. It not only helped me re-gain my stamina, but now fitness and healthy living is a new lifestyle for me.
I'm planning on running a 4.7 mile race this fall and I actually lift weights and run several times each week now. That would NEVER be happening without this program!

This program is well designed, sets goals, provides feedback, and accommodates the differing levels of fitness of the participants. Endurance has increased, resting pulse has noticeably decreased. I hope to see more benefits when I can exercise without so much pain in the remaining 2/3 of this program.

There are three levels to the HFG program:

Recover
