Prehabilitation program: Cohort 1 - Prehabilitation program will be implemented during the last cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (cycle 5 - cycle 6 or cycle 6 - cycle 8) and the weeks preceding surgery (planned 3-4 weeks after the last chemotherapy cycle)
Cohort 2 - Prehabilitation program will be implemented during the last cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (cycle 2 - cycle 4) and the weeks preceding surgery (planned 3-4 weeks after the last chemotherapy cycle)

The feasibility of personalized, 8-week trimodal pre-habilitation program alongside perioperative triplet chemotherapy — 8 weeks The success of pre-habilitation is defined by the achievement of the following three criteria:
