• Objective The aim of the current project was the development, implementation and evaluation of the programme, Motivational‐Volitional Intervention‐Movement After Breast Cancer (Mo‐Vo‐BnB), an intervention for the sustainable promotion of physical activity of breast cancer survivors. Methods In a multi‐stage interdisciplinary development process, the pedagogical‐didactic, psychological and physical evidence‐based programme was developed and implemented for women after breast cancer who were approved for medical rehabilitation and were minimally, physically active (<60 min/week). Train‐the‐trainer seminars were carried out for the implementation. Four sessions were implemented in two German clinics. The training quality, didactic methods and accompanying material were evaluated 6 weeks and 12 months after implementation by patients, trainers and project members (n = 127 evaluations). Results The standardised and published MoVo‐BnB programme can provide practical and quality training. Content and methods can be implemented according to the manual. Training quality, didactic methods, and accompanying materials were evaluated positively. Conclusion The results suggest that MoVo‐BnB is a useful standardised intervention for promoting the physical activity of breast cancer survivors. The demonstrated process is also suitable for other projects. Clinical trial registration German Clinical Trials Register (DRKS): DRKS00011122; Trial registration date: 2016 October 13.
