Getting a cancer diagnosis is many people's worst fear. But while it's important to focus on getting better, it's also just as vital to take care of yourself in the process. We ask the experts at Macmillan Cancer Care for their best advice.

If only there was a way to get the same kind of results in short, sharp bursts. If this is something you find yourself asking, then trying HIIT for weight loss may be the answer.
