Exercise and Steroid Changes in Prostate Cancer

This study is looking at how a single 20-minute session of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) exercise affects steroid hormone levels in men with localized prostate cancer who are on active surveillance. You may be able to join if you are a man between 18 and 80 years old, have localized prostate cancer, are currently on active surveillance, and can do moderate-to-high intensity exercise. The main goal of the study is to see how many participants complete the study procedures. The current recruitment status is unclear.
