Specific questions were Where do fitness trainers get their evidence-based information What types of interventions are effective for translating evidence-based knowledge for use by fitness trainers What are the barriers and facilitators to the use of evidence-based information by fitness trainers in their practice Methods We describe a systematic review of studies about knowledge translation interventions targeting fitness trainers. Fitness trainers were defined as individuals who provide exercise program design and supervision services to the public. Nurses physicians physiotherapists school teachers athletic trainers and sport team strength coaches were excluded.

Both studies identified that fitness trainers obtain information from textbooks networking with colleagues scientific journals seminars and mass media. Fitness trainers holding higher levels of education are reported to use evidence-based information sources such as scientific journals compared to those with lower education levels who were reported to use mass media sources. The studies identified did not evaluate interventions to translate evidence-based knowledge for fitness trainers and did not explore factors influencing uptake of evidence in their practice. Conclusion Little is known about how fitness trainers obtain and incorporate new evidence-based knowledge into their .
