#457 Training Through Treatment with Kristy Griggs

from Better Than Before Breast Cancer with The Breast Cancer Recovery Coach · host Laura Lummer

In this episode, I'm joined by Kristy Griggs, founder of Training Through Treatment, to talk about the role exercise played in her experience with stage four breast cancer. Kristy was told to rest during treatment. But what she discovered was that movement helped her physically, mentally, and emotionally in ways she did not expect. She shares how she navigated the difference between needing rest and choosing to show up anyway, how exercise supported her through treatment, and how it ultimately led her to create a nonprofit that helps others access movement during cancer care. Listen to learn: • The difference between "I need rest" and "I feel uncomfortable but can still move" • How exercise supported treatment and recovery in real time • Why community matters during and after a diagnosis • What "vigorous exercise" actually means and why it matters • How to start moving even when energy is low This conversation is a reminder that movement does not have to be perfect to be meaningful.   Resources Mentioned: Work with Laura: https://www.thebreastcancerrecoverycoach.com/health  Training Through Treatment Website: https://www.trainingthroughtreatment.org/   Follow Training Through Treatment on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/training_through_treatment?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==   Follow Kristy: https://www.instagram.com/kristygriggs?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==     Let's Connect!
