Multiple national organizations recommend exercise for those affected by cancer (1-3). These recommendations, from the American College of Sports Medicine (1), American Cancer Society (2), and the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (3), all include guidance to participate in strength training two to three times weekly. In one survey of cancer survivors, 19% of respondents indicated they adhered to the strength training guidance from these published recommendations from expert panels (4).
