CANCER
With regard to module preferences at baseline (T0), 50 participants (54%) chose the online-training app (M2), 32 participants (35%) chose the supervised, group-based online exercise program (M1) and 10 participants (11%) chose the in-person exercise program (M3). However, due to the COVID-19 national lockdown and several restrictions on exercise facilities, M3 could not be served from November 2020 to March 2021. Participants who performed M3 at that time could switch to either M1 or M2. The most frequently mentioned reason for choosing M2 (56% of a total of 82 qualitative answers) was the flexibility in terms of time. The second most given reasons were both, personal reasons (e.g., “I want to lose weight”) and the personalized training schedule (respectively 15% of 82 qualitative answers).The reasons for choosing M1 (a total of 56 qualitative answers were given) were the fixed training date (30%) and doing sports with other cancer patients (27%). Sixteen percent of the YAs indicated that M1 was easy to integrate into everyday life. The most common reason for choosing M3 (a total of 19 qualitative answers were given) was the individual supervision by an exercise therapist (47%). Additionally, fixed dates (26%), closeness to residence (16%) and social contact (11%) were mentioned in regard to M3.
