Intrinsic Motivation
People engage in an activity because it is inherently interesting or enjoyable
Promoting adherence to a weight-management program
Decreasing intake by 250 kcal and increasing physical activity by increasing expenditure by 250 kcal
This will result in 0.5 to 1.0 loss of body weight per week.
Extrinsic Motivation
A result of direct input from social contacts or other environmental stimuli
Integrated Regulation
Behaviors and goals have become integrated into a persons self-concept "I am a swimmer"
Identified Regulation
People engage in an activity because it helps them reach a personally meaningful goal, even though they may not actually enjoy the activity much
Introjected Regulation
People engage in an activity because they think they should, even though they really don't want to
External Regulation
People engage in an activity solely from external pressure to avoid punishment or gain rewards
Muscular endurance, as opposed to muscular strength, has been shown to be protective against future back troubles.
Low-back exercises performed for maintenance of health should emphasize muscular endurance through increased repetitions instead of increased strength by lifting more weight. Muscular endurance also promotes spinal stability, which is associated with improved motor control and reduced fatigue during lifting movements.
