there is a growing interest in the cancer community for using exercise training for the alleviation of treatment-related symptoms in patients with acute leukemia (Bergenthal et al., 2014). The promotion of physical activity during treatment also has been shown to be a contributor for improvements in health outcomes in this cancer population (Battaglini et al., 2009; Bergenthal et al., 2014; Jones, Eves, Haykowsky, Freedland, & Mackey, 2009; Jones, Eves, Haykowsky, Joy, & Douglas, 2008). The current empirical evidence provides oncology nurses with essential information in encouraging adults with acute leukemia to be more physically active while undergoing treatment.
