Powerlifter Maintains Elite Strength During Breast Cancer Treatment

LaShae Rolle, a 27-year-old competitive powerlifter and University of Miami public health fellow, defied a stage 2B breast cancer diagnosis by sustaining high-intensity training throughout chemotherapy, mastectomy and radiation. Her new study in Lifestyle Medicine is the first to document an elite athlete’s powerlifting regimen during cancer treatment, challenging guidelines that limit patients to low-intensity workouts.

By tailoring workouts around chemo cycles—high-intensity lifts before infusions, moderate sessions between, and light mobility after—Rolle retained 93% of her squat strength and 87% of her bench and deadlift. Her case underscores the potential of personalized, evidence-based exercise to empower survivorship and recovery.
