解决高企且停滞不前的缺乏身体活动率仍然是研究人员面临的普遍挑战，也是卫生组织、政府和身体活动从业者的优先事项。领导者是许多体育活动环境的普遍特征，可以从根本上影响人们的体育活动行为和体验。与此相一致的是，健身公司和组织通常声称，他们的班级、小组或课程的领导者会激励、激励并确保锻炼者实现他们的目标。然而，我们认为，关于领导者如何最好地促进团队成员之间的积极行为和结果，没有足够的证据来证明这些主张正在转化为强有力的体育活动领导。因此，在本文中，我们呼吁进行研究，为领导者提供更多的知识和实用指南，以最大限度地提高他们的效率。为了促进此类研究，我们提供了一份研究综述，这些研究考察了体育活动领导者促进健康行为（例如更多参与）的最有效方法，以及可能导致这些行为（例如更大的运动乐趣）的积极体验。然后，考虑到现有研究的缺点，我们概述了对未来研究的四项广泛建议：(a)在新颖和不同的背景下进行研究，(b)关注活动不足的人群，(c)利用定性方法，(d)关注翻译和实施。我们相信，这样的研究将产生知识，使体育运动的领导者能够利用自己的潜力，成为行为改变的有力推动者。
Addressing high and stagnant physical inactivity rates remains a pervasive challenge for researchers, and a priority for health organisations, governments, and physical activity practitioners. Leaders are a prevailing feature of numerous physical activity contexts and can fundamentally influence people’s physical activity behaviours and experiences. In line with this, fitness companies and organisations commonly claim that the leaders of their classes, groups, or sessions will motivate, inspire, and ensure exercisers achieve their goals. We argue, however, that there is insufficient evidence regarding how leaders can best facilitate positive behaviours among, and outcomes for, group members to be confident that these claims are translating into strong physical activity leadership on the ground. In this article, we therefore call for research that equips leaders with greater knowledge and practical guidelines for how to maximise their effectiveness. To facilitate such research, we provide an overview of research that has examined the most effective ways for physical activity leaders to promote health-enhancing behaviours (e.g. greater participation) and positive experiences that may lead to such behaviours (e.g. greater exercise enjoyment) among those they lead. Then, with the shortcomings of this extant research in mind, we outline four broad recommendations for future research: (a) conduct research in novel and varied contexts, (b) focus on insufficiently active populations, (c) utilise qualitative methods, and (d) focus on translation and implementation. Such research would, we believe, generate knowledge that enables physical activity leaders to capitalise on their potential to be powerful agents of behaviour change.
