In this episode, we chat with Mattia Pirani, exercise specialist at the PRIME Center of the Istituto Oncologico Romagnolo, where he designs personalized training programs for people during and after cancer treatment — including those living with metastatic disease.

Mattia shares how exercise, when structured and evidence-based, can ease treatment side effects, improve quality of life, and support long-term health outcomes. He explains why tailoring matters, what patients can realistically achieve, and how exercise becomes essential in oncology care.
