Abstract:	More clinicians and oncologists are recommending exercise as a strategy for reducing the side effects of treatment, speeding recovery, and improving overall quality of life for cancer patients and survivors. In turn, cancer survivors are seeking health and fitness professionals with knowledge and experience to help them learn how to exercise safely within their capabilities. As the preparation resource for the ACSM/ACS Certified Cancer Exercise Trainer (CET) certification, ACSM's Guide to Exercise and Cancer Survivorship will allow health and fitness professionals to provide safe exercise programs to help cancer survivors improve their health, take proactive steps toward preventing recurrences, and enhance their quality of life.
