Online exercise programming may promote physical activity while at home, but little is known about its use among older adults. Using the Arksey and O’Malley framework, we describe the nature and extent of the research pertaining to the use of online exercise programming among adults 65 years of age and older. We ran two separate searches (January 2005–September 2020 and October 2020–October 2021), yielding 17 articles that met our inclusion criteria. A total of 1,767 participants (69% female) ranging from 65 to 94 years of age were included. Most studies delivered the online programs asynchronously. The majority of studies assessed the feasibility of online programs, with 14 studies investigating health-related outcomes such as physical, psychological, and social health. Future research should explore perceptions and experiences of online exercise programming among older adults and the mechanisms by which it impacts physical, psychological, social, and behavioral outcomes.

在线锻炼计划可能会促进在家中进行体育锻炼，但人们对其在老年人中的使用知之甚少。使用 Arksey 和 O'Malley 框架，我们描述了与 65 岁及以上成年人使用在线锻炼计划相关的研究的性质和范围。我们进行了两次单独的搜索（2005 年 1 月至 2020 年 9 月和 2020 年 10 月至 2021 年 10 月），产生了 17 篇符合我们纳入标准的文章。总共包括 1,767 名参与者（69% 为女性），年龄从 65 岁到 94 岁不等。大多数研究以异步方式提供在线课程。大多数研究评估了在线计划的可行性，其中 14 项研究调查了与健康相关的结果，例如身体、心理和社会健康。
