MWMax WalkerMDMeg A DoohanGHG. K. B. Halkett

Key Points

  • To explore exercise preferences, barriers, and facilitators for adults with brain tumours and highlight perceived benefits.
  • Conducted a systematic review of existing literature
  • Analyzed exercise preferences and barriers
  • Evaluated the role of support from carers and healthcare providers
  • Moderate aerobic training is the preferred exercise type
  • Resistance training lacks sufficient exploration
  • Identified need for flexible and individualized exercise programs

Abstract

Exercise interventions for adults with brain tumours should be flexible, individualised, and supported by carers and healthcare providers. Moderate aerobic training is preferred, while resistance training remains underexplored. Addressing barriers and providing structured support may enhance uptake and adherence. Further research is needed to establish optimal program characteristics across disease stages.
