BACKGROUND: The factors leading to physical activity maintenance are not well-understood. This study investigated such factors among individuals who adhere to the WHO physical activity guidelines for five years or longer, exploring perspectives, motives and facilitators of long-term physical activity maintenance.
METHODS: A constructivist grounded theory study was conducted to explore the phenomenon through the maintainers themselves (n = 10) via in-depth semi-structured interviews.
RESULTS: Coded segments (n = 1,127) were sorted into 21 themes and summarized into six broad categories: three main categories: 1) enjoyment; 2) adaptability; 3) well-being, the fundamental factor of 4) priority, as well as two supporting categories: 5) organization, and 6) community. The model presents the interconnectedness of these factors.
CONCLUSION: This study aligns and expands the existing literature on physical activity maintenance, emphasizing the importance of prioritization as foundational for adaptability, enjoyment, and well-being. The findings suggest that a dynamic approach is crucial for physical activity maintenance.
