dc.description.abstractPhysical inactivity continues rising making it necessary to understand what motives the practice of physical exercise and sports. 901 Portuguese practitioners of exercise at gyms and nature and adventure sports modalities were recruited. Participants answered to the Portuguese version of the Exercise Motivations Inventory-2 (EMI-2) to assess the motives for the practice. Independent t-test were executed to compare the motives between the 2 groups and d Cohen was executed for effect size. We found that some motives were significantly higher in exercise at gyms compared to nature and adventure sports, namely Health Avoidance (p = 0.001; d = 1.27), Health Pressures (p = 0.001; d = 0.76), Positive Health (p = 0.001; d = 1.09), Strength & Endurance (p = 0.001; d = 1.02) and Nimbleness (p = 0.001; d = 0.80). These results are in line with previous studies suggesting that the pursuit of health benefits is usually most identified by physical exercise practitioners. These studies are important to create different motivational profiles which may have an impact in the practice (and in the avoidance of withdrawals) in physical activity practice.
