Women who exercise three to four hours a week may reduce their risk of getting breast cancer by as much as 30-40%.

Guidelines for cancer prevention, which were recently developed by the American Cancer Society and the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer, focus on physical activity, weight control and nutrition — rather than drug therapy.
According to both groups, the evidence linking exercise to reducing the risk of breast cancer is convincing; therefore, they recommend women engage in at least 30 minutes of moderate to vigorous exercise per day.
