Cancer patients appear to progress through a series of milestones in adopting and maintaining PA throughout cancer care. Intervention strategies aimed at promoting PA could test whether support in navigating turning points could lead to greater PA participation. These findings require replication and extension, specifically among patients who are men, younger adults, and culturally diverse.
