A physically active lifestyle provides innumerable benefits; yet, few individuals are physically active enough to reap those benefits. Tailored physical activity interventions may address low rates of physical activity by offering individualized strategies that consider a person's characteristics, needs, preferences, and/or context, rather than the traditional one-size-fits-all approach. However, the tailoring methodology is in its nascency, and an understanding of how best to develop such interventions is needed. In this commentary, we identify future directions to enhance the impact of tailored interventions designed to increase physical activity participation. A multi-country collaborative was established to review the literature and discuss an agenda for future research. Two overarching research opportunities are suggested for improving the development of tailored, behavioral physical activity interventions: (a) optimize the engagement of diverse knowledge users in intervention co-design and (b) examine ethical considerations that may impact the use of technology to support tailored physical activity delivery. Specifically, there is a need for better reporting and evaluation of knowledge user involvement alongside targeting diversity in the inclusion of knowledge users. Furthermore, while technology boasts many opportunities to increase the scale and precision of interventions, examinations of how it impacts recipients' experiences of and participation in tailored interventions are needed to ensure the benefits of technology use outweigh the risks. A better understanding of these research areas will help ensure that the diverse needs of individuals are met, technology is appropriately used to support tailoring, and ultimately it improves the effectiveness of tailored physical activity interventions.
积极的生活方式有无数好处；然而，很少有人有足够的体力活动来获得这些好处。量身定制的体育活动干预措施可以通过提供个性化的策略来解决低体力活动率的问题，这些策略考虑了一个人的特点、需求、偏好和/或背景，而不是传统的一刀切的方法。然而，定制方法还处于起步阶段，需要了解如何最好地开发这种干预措施。在这篇评论中，我们确定了未来的方向，以增强旨在增加体育活动参与度的定制干预措施的影响力。成立了一个多国家的合作组织来审查文献并讨论未来研究的议程。为了改进定制的、行为性体育活动干预措施的制定，提出了两个总体研究机会：（a）优化不同知识使用者在干预共同设计中的参与度，（b）审查可能影响使用技术支持定制体育活动提供的道德考虑因素。具体来说，需要更好地报告和评估知识使用者的参与情况，同时针对知识使用者的多样性进行目标定位。此外，尽管技术具有许多增加干预措施规模和精度的机会，但需要对其如何影响收件人对定制干预措施的体验和参与情况进行检查，以确保技术使用的好处超过风险。更好地了解这些研究领域将有助于确保满足个人的多样化需求，适当使用技术来支持定制，并最终提高定制体育活动干预措施的有效性。
