Description

Past research has shown there are many benefits to engaging in regular physical activity. These benefits include but are not limited to managing weight/weight loss, reducing health risks, and improving mental health. The World Health Organization recommends 150-300 mins of physical activity weekly, and while there are many recommendations on the amount and type of activity there is limited research on how to get engagement in physical activity. The purpose of this research project is to better understand the motivating factors behind the start of an individual's physical activity journey.
