Has been treated with chemotherapy and radiation, given most patients receive both therapies. 5. Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness therapy (FACIT)-Fatigue ≤ 43. FACIT-Fatigue will be used as a screener because this 13-item scale can be completed relatively quickly in clinic 6.

In addition, participants' care teams will be notified of their participation in the study. 9. Must be able to provide informed consent/assent. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Non-English speaking 2. Screen failure for exercise safety 3. Underlying unstable cardiac or pulmonary disease or symptomatic cardiac disease 4. Recent fracture or acute musculoskeletal injury that precludes ability to participate in supervised exercise training sessions 5. History of underlying chronic disease, secondary malignances, germline genetic syndrome, or recurrent disease requiring re-irradiation of the brain 6. Cognitive and/or major sensory deficits that would impede the completion of research activities and assessments as deemed by the clinical team. 7. Self-report of pregnancy 8. Prisoners 9. Documented developmental disorders (e.g., Autism) or major psychotic illness (e.g., schizophrenia)
