|
problem of exercise adherence
|
at the beginning of an exercise program - 100% participation; after 6 months - less than 50%
|
|
why people have a problem with exercise adherence
|
prescriptions:
- are often based on the fitness data, ignoring people's psychological readiness to exercise - are too challenging and are not optimal for enhancing motivation - do not promote self-responsibility or empower people to make a long-term behavioral change |
|
theories and models of exercise behavior: theory of planned behavior
|
- exercise behavior is made up of intentions, subjective norms and attitudes, and perceptions of ability to control behavior
- intervention techniques should be aimed at enhancing perceived behavioral control |
|
theories and models of exercise behavior: social cognitive/self-efficacy theory
|
- exercise behavior is influenced by both personal and environmental factors, particularly self-efficacy
- person may intend to be physically active but external forces may prevent him/her from engaging in exercise |
|
theories and models of exercise behavior: transtheoretical model
|
an individual progresses through six stages of change
|
|
transtheoretical model stage 1
|
pre-contemplation stage (no intention to start exercising in the next 6 months)
|
|
transtheoretical model stage 2
|
contemplation stage (intention to start exercising in the next 6 months)
|
|
transtheoretical model stage 3
|
preparation stage (taking action to prepare for exercise habit)
|
|
transtheoretical model stage 4
|
action stage (has been exercising regularly, but for less than 6 months)
|
|
transtheoretical model stage 5
|
maintenance stage (has been exercising regularly for more than 6 months)
|
|
transtheoretical model stage 6
|
termination stage (once exercisers have exercised for 5 years)
|
|
theories and models of exercise behavior: T.M. processes of change
|
- experiential or cognitive processes: directed toward increasing people's awareness of, and changing their thoughts and feelings about, themselves and their exercise behavior
- behavioral processes: directed toward changing aspects of the environment that can affect exercise participation |
|
theories and models of exercise behavior: ecological model
|
explains how environment and behaviors affect each other, takes into consideration intrapersonal, interpersonal, institutional, and policy influences
|
|
techniques for enhancing adherence to exercise: behavior modification approaches
|
- prompts: verbal, physical, or symbolic cues initiate behaviors
- contracting: participants enter into a contract with their exercise practitioner |
|
techniques for enhancing adherence to exercise: reinforcement approaches
|
charting attendance and participation with rewards, individualized feedback, and participants self-monitoring their physical activity with written records
|
|
techniques for enhancing adherence to exercise: cognitive-behavioral approaches
|
- goal setting should be used to motivate individuals. exercise-related goals should be self-set rather than instructor-set, flexible rather than fixed, and time based rather than distance based
- dissociative strategies produce significantly higher levels of exercise adherence than associative strategies |
|
techniques for enhancing adherence to exercise: decision-making approaches
|
involve exercisers in decisions regarding program structure, complete a decision balance sheet to increase awareness of the costs and benefits
|
|
techniques for enhancing adherence to exercise: social-support approaches
|
social support - an individual has a favorable attitude toward another individual's involvement in an exercise program
- social support can be enhanced by participation in a small group, the use of personalized feedback, and the use of a buddy system |
|
techniques for enhancing adherence to exercise: intrinsic approaches
|
focus on the experience itself; take a process orientation; engage in purposeful and meaningful physical activity; exercise enjoyment
