Article

This review article provides an overview of the evidence that links exercise and
sports participation to physical and psychological well-being among people with
spinal cord injury. Two aspects of physical well-being are examined, including
the prevention of chronic disease and the promotion of physical fitness. Multiple
aspects of psychosocial well-being are discussed, including mental health, social
participation, and life satisfaction. The review concludes with future research
recommendations and a discussion of challenges and opportunities for using
exercise and sports to promote health and well-being among people living with
spinal cord injury.
