Area of Science:

  • Preventive and rehabilitative medicine
  • Behavioral medicine
  • Public health

Background:

  • Low physical activity is linked to reduced life expectancy and chronic diseases in adults and children.
  • Despite evidence, sedentary lifestyles are prevalent globally.
  • Exercise plays a vital role in both preventing and rehabilitating various health conditions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review research on exercise for prevention and rehabilitation over the past decade.
  • To examine literature on exercise adherence.
  • To identify future research priorities in exercise science and behavioral medicine.

Main Methods:
