Lesley’s Journey: Exercise Physiology After Breast Cancer

At Move Right EP, we believe in celebrating every milestone—especially when those achievements are hard-earned through resilience and dedication. Today, we’re sharing Lesley’s inspiring story, a testament to the power of perseverance, expert guidance, and the right support system.

Overcoming Breast Cancer: The Challenge

When Lesley first joined us, she was in the midst of her recovery from breast cancer. Like many women who have undergone treatment, she faced significant challenges with her arm range of motion and general strength and had developed osteopenia in her back and hips. Every day activities felt harder, and the road to regaining confidence in her body seemed daunting.

Personalised Exercise Physiology: The Turning Point

Our team worked closely with Lesley to design a program tailored to her needs. We focused on gentle, progressive movements to restore her arm mobility, gradually building up her strength and stamina. Sessions were always evidence-based, supportive, and paced to match Lesley’s unique journey. The right exercise physiology after breast cancer can empower survivors to regain independence and confidence.

·         Targeted mobility exercises for the shoulder and arm

·         Strength-building routines, starting with light resistance and progressing as Lesley improved

·         Consistent encouragement and education, empowering Lesley to take charge of her recovery

Lesley’s Progress With Exercise Physiology After Breast Cancer

Lesley’s progress has been nothing short of remarkable. She can now perform banded chin-ups (while constantly talking)—a huge achievement for anyone, let alone someone who started with limited range of motion. Even more impressive, Lesley is single-arm pressing over 10kg, a testament to her growing strength and determination.

·         Banded chin-ups: Building upper body and back strength

·         Single-arm pressing over 10kg: Regained functional power and confidence

Feeling Stronger, Healthier, and Happier

Beyond the numbers, Lesley has noticed a profound shift in her everyday life. She feels stronger, more energetic, and happier. Her story is a reminder that recovery is not just about regaining what was lost, but also discovering new levels of capability and confidence.

“I can’t recommend Move Right EP enough for anyone seeking top-quality rehabilitation and care. The team is exceptionally professional and provided tailored support that made a real difference in my recovery.

The clinic is welcoming, well-equipped, and gave me the structure I needed after surgery. With their expert guidance and treatment plan, I not only met my recovery goals,

I exceeded them. I’m incredibly grateful for the results I achieved with Move Right."
