Brief Summary

Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in France (56,841 cases in 2012). Although the benefits of physical activity (PA) in cancer patients are currently well established in the scientific literature, several studies have shown that this population is not sufficiently active. Strengthen patient adherence to prevention counseling by the physical activity (PA) is emerging as a new challenge for personalized treatment in oncology. In order to encourage the engagement and maintenance in a regular PA of cancer patients, first, their experiences of physical activity (PA) practice should be considered and their initial social representations of the practice considered. Secondarily, it is also important to identify health professionals who retain a key role in defining the framework, objectives and means of action to promote lifestyle changes towards a more active lifestyle. In addition, peer mentoring appears to offer promising perspectives for promoting adherence and long-term maintenance in physical activity (PA) of cancer patients.

Detailed Description

The main objective of this project is to measure the adherence of prostate cancer patients to a physical activity program with a tracking of the motivation by a pair.

STEP 2: Patient with prostate cancer and a physical activityAdult Physical Activity Questionnaire (APAQ)Secondly, patient with prostate cancer and a physical activity will be included during step 2. They are called "peer". They will have a questionnaire Adult Physical Activity Questionnaire (APAQ), an activity actigraph and a peer training. The peer will help patients to realize the Physical Activity Program during step 3.
STEP 2: Patient with prostate cancer and a physical activityPeer trainingSecondly, patient with prostate cancer and a physical activity will be included during step 2. They are called "peer". They will have a questionnaire Adult Physical Activity Questionnaire (APAQ), an activity actigraph and a peer training. The peer will help patients to realize the Physical Activity Program during step 3.
STEP 3: Physical Activity ProgramActivity actigraphFinally, patients with prostate cancer (different from step 1) and who agrees to participate at the Physical Activity Program will be included during step 3. They will have an activity actigraph and a questionnaire Adult Physical Activity Questionnaire (APAQ) at inclusion and 3 months later. They will receive the Physical Activity Program.
