Social support and barriers in group online exercise classes for adults living with cancer

This study examined current training that fitness professionals receive on the provision and facilitation of social support, experiences people living with cancer have with social support, and supportive behaviours and barriers for providing and obtaining support in online group exercise oncology programs.

This research was funded by the University of Calgary Faculty of Kinesiology and the Training in Research and Clinical Trials in Integrative Oncology (TRACTION) program.
