The limited exercise implementation research involving PwSCI challenges the implementation and sustainability of exercise in the real world. The Physical Activity Special Interest Group of the International Spinal Cord Society developed consensus-based recommendations to improve the methodological quality of exercise intervention research involving PwSCI. Some of the recommendations pertain to intervention delivery fidelity and to exercise sustainability after the end of research studies. This article outlines actionable strategies to utilize such recommendations and provides more in-depth guidance to advance the impact of exercise implementation research involving PwSCI. We suggest research teams follow these strategies, as their adoption and proper reporting will maximize fidelity and exercise sustainability and thus advance SCI exercise implementation research.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.46292\/sci25-00109","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,27]],"date-time":"2026-05-27T02:20:17Z","timestamp":1779848417000},"page":"66-75","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Implementation and Sustainability of Exercise Interventions in Persons With Spinal Cord Injury: Research Recommendations and Future Directions"],"prefix":"10.46292","volume":"32","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5471-041X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Matteo","family":"Ponzano","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Kinesiology, Health and Sport Studies, Wayne State University, Detroit, Michigan, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jennifer R.","family":"Tomasone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Kinesiology & Health Studies, Queen's University, Kingston, Ontario, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"25425","reference":[{"key":"b1","series-title":"Arch Phys Med Rehabil.","first-page":"2094","article-title":"A prospective study on physical activity levels after spinal cord injury during inpatient rehabilitation and the year after discharge","volume":"89","author":"Van Den Berg-Emons RJ","year":"2008","unstructured":"Van Den Berg-Emons RJ, et al.
