* To compare between modified strength training program and aerobic exercises on quality of life on children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. * To compare between modified strength training program and aerobic exercises on functional capacity on children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
This study will be done to determine any exercise from aerobic exercises or modified strength training program will be more effective on quality of life and functional capacity on children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia .Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia is wide spread in the world and the children with this disease are fragile so must know the most program effect.
