Although exercise recommendations are made to cancer patients and survivors, we will discuss the findings from a tertiary cancer center on the adherence of the exercise guidelines and patient reported outcomes on physical activity. This lecture will provide insight into the reported issues and challenges to adhering to the exercise recommendations. We will discuss these challenges to develop tools to help both providers in education and patients to achieve physical activity goals.
