Being Mobile.... NBCF research
This is one of the research projects conducted by NBCF - focusing on the benefits of staying active in preventing and recovering from Breast Cancer. Great work everyone!!!
Physical activity, sedentary behaviour and breast cancer: determining how type, domain, duration and intensity affect risk and prognosis
Exercise can reduce the risk of developing breast cancer, and improve survival amongst women diagnosed with the disease. Despite this knowledge, the majority of Australian women do not participate in sufficient exercise. Further, how the eight or nine hours of daily sitting time accumulated by Australian women affects their breast cancer risk is unknown. Given what we know about the biology of breast cancer, it is likely that sitting time also contributes to risk.
The research address two themes: breast cancer prevention, and breast cancer survivorship. Using data collected by existing studies I will examine how the type, duration, intensity and frequency of exercise and sitting time relate to breast cancer. A new study (part of a much larger project being undertaken by Cancer Council Victoria – the ABC Study) will collect accurate information on the exercise and sitting time patterns of approximately 1,000 postmenopausal women, by using small devices called accelerometers. This will help us to understand how exercise and sitting time affect breast cancer risk. Another new study will investigate whether the use of wearable activity monitors (such as the Fitbit®) can increase breast cancer survivors’ exercise and reduce their sitting time.
The proposed research will enable us to provide more specific advice to women about how much, and what type of, exercise they should be doing to prevent breast cancer, or to improve their survival after diagnosis. It will also allow us to give guidance on how much sitting is can be safely done each day.

Thank You!
Hello Be Mobile Chums,Be Mobilers will be doing the 57 Squat Challenge for breast cancer research
57 Australians will be diagnosed with breast cancer today and a further 9 will lose their life. Those are our mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts, and friends. We want to make a difference to the lives of those 57 Australians impacted by the disease - that is why we are taking on the 57 Squat Challenge to raise vital funds for world-class breast cancer research. But we need your help.
Every donation, big or small, will get us closer to reaching our goal and helping the National Breast Cancer Foundation end deaths from breast cancer.
Thank you to our Sponsors
