THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
This chapter includes an introduction, background of the study, statement of the
problems, conceptual framework, theoretical framework, hypothesis, significance of the study,
scope, and limitations, and lastly the definition of terms.
INTRODUCTION
Since the onset of the pandemic, many individuals have been compelled to stay at home,
disrupting their regular exercise routines, particularly for those who were not habitual exercisers.
The limited space and movement restrictions imposed during the extended lockdowns have
exacerbated this situation. As the pandemic wanes, there arises a concern that people may begin
to prioritize physical fitness less, potentially impacting their overall health. This shift towards a
more sedentary lifestyle may lead to various health issues, stemming from avoiding exercise and
Additionally, accessing gyms has become a challenge for many, further contributing to
the decline in physical activity. In today's world, people often opt to remain at home, engaging
with their electronic devices, a trend that has been magnified during the pandemic. Given these
issues, we have devised a solution to harness technology to promote physical fitness and overall
health.
In the present day, a considerable number of individuals face time constraints that hinder
their ability to engage in physical activities due to limited space. Overcoming these challenges

can be notably challenging when striving for physical fitness. The key solutions lie in effective
Additional challenges involve the struggle to establish well-defined goals and the
uncertainty about where to commence. These issues can make decision-making particularly
challenging. The key solutions to this are having a personal coach or a fitness website that gives
you the goals you need. For individuals with busy schedules who cannot spare time to visit a

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
ART Theory
explain and explain behavior in circumstances where individuals either engage in physical
inactivity or take initiative. It is assumed that past exercise-related experiences, emotions, and
ideas have an impact on whether or not someone would be willing to put their body under
physical strain. A person’s negative affective valuation of exercise will act as a restraining force
that may negate any positive cognitive motivational drives toward action in the face of an
exercise-related stimulus (or, on the other hand, if the affective valuation is positive, it will
present a driving force and thus increase the likelihood that the person will change his or her

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURES AND STUDIES
This chapter includes a review of related literature and studies from both local and
foreign studies that will give more information and ideas for the current study. This will help
to support the main study of the researchers.
Taking regular exercises is beneficial for oneself, taking regular exercises can help to
improve the health of an individual. Regular exercise is one of the most important things you
can do for your health. Being physically active can improve your brain health, help manage
weight, reduce the risk of disease, strengthen bones and muscles, and improve your ability to do
In addition, doing regular exercises benefits an individual in many ways, it can boost
your mood, and physical activities stimulate brain chemicals to make you feel happier more

relaxed, and less anxious. Exercise prevents the gain of excess weight and helps keep off lost
weight, exercising burns calories that lead to losing weight. It also prevents health problems like
stroke and high blood pressure. Exercising also promotes better sleep, it makes you fall asleep
Furthermore, Mentalhealth.org.uk (2021) stated that physical activities are not only good
and personal training sessions are conducted. With the rise of technology, virtual fitness
platforms, and apps are now accessible to individuals in a wide range of exercise programs and
training sessions. Many fitness-related applications are now being used by many individuals like
fitness trackers, smart home fitness equipment, fitness apps, virtual reality fitness, and recovery
trainers (Mirror. co, n.d.). All these fitness-related applications are created using the new
“As technology rapidly advances, it’s impacting every aspect of our lives, including the
fitness industry. There are now countless ways to get in shape that didn’t exist a few years ago,
and this is changing the way people view fitness. For many, getting fit is no longer about going
to the gym – it’s about using technology to create a custom workout plan that fits their needs and
lifestyle.” (Spark membership, 2022). Individuals in the past usually went to the gym to work

smart fitness suite for Real-Time exercise monitoring and posture correction (2021). Physical
activity is beneficial for your health, happiness, and fitness levels as well as for reducing stress
and tension in your life. However, there is a good chance that physical fitness will be negatively
impacted by high-power and commanding workouts. Exercise-related jarring motions and poor
posture might result in temporary or permanent impairment. With the development of new
We presented a totally portable smart fitness suite for the home to perform their regular exercises
without a physical gym trainer and gym atmosphere in light of this issue's efficacy. The proposed
method uses an Android application to simulate a real-time gym trainer and takes into account
the T-bar and bicep curl workouts. Gyroscope and EMG sensory modules are included in the
proposed workout suite to enable the completion of the aforementioned two exercises. Over an
Android app, it delivered notifications on motions that promoted unhealthy, incorrect posture and
studied. This study's goal was to employ a combination of methodologies to examine the
acceptability, acceptability, and efficacy of a short-duration, high-intensity exercise intervention
(REHIT) when used unsupervised in a workplace setting. (Metcalfe, R. S., 2020). It has been
said that increasing the percentage of people who exercise regularly is "the best buy for public
health." A wealth of descriptive literature supports this claim by showing that different exercise
interventions can, on average, acutely and/or chronically change key cardiometabolic risk
biomarkers in a way that would be likely to lower the risk of chronic disease. (Atef, H., 2020).
Further emphasizing the significance of regular exercise is the strong and causal link
between higher levels of cardiorespiratory fitness and lower rates of cardiovascular and all-cause
mortality. Long-term intervention studies have provided causal evidence that regular exercise
alone or in combination with other lifestyle interventions can reduce cardiovascular and all-cause
enhancing health and well-being is the definition of 'health behavior'. Therefore, implementing a
home exercise program to aid in the rehabilitation from shoulder pain and impairment can be
viewed as health behavior, and behavior change theory may inform the development of
literature on healthcare to construct educational and behavior-change treatments without the use

improve students’ resilience (2019). The quality of resilience is the capacity to sustain
equilibrium despite a variety of trials and tribulations. The goal of this study was to determine
how well group exercise methods foster student resilience. In this work, a non-equivalent pretest-
posttest control-group design and a quantitative methodology were used. 421 high school
students participated in the study, and purposive sampling was used to choose the research
samples. The majority of Indonesian high school students fall into the medium group for
resilience. The research revealed that using group exercises to build students' resilience is
between group counseling and group exercise methods. The group exercise program is
recommended for schools that need group counseling programs with group exercise techniques
to build student resilience. It is also intended for school counselors and aspiring researchers who
want to conduct research on a variety of subjects, such as adults or children in junior high or
elementary school.
another lesson learnt from COVID-19 lockdown. The primary concern during the COVID-19
pandemic lockdown was that the "stay-at-home" precautions taken to stop the virus' spread
would significantly lower physical activity levels among the general population and, more
importantly, vulnerable groups of people, including, among others, the elderly and those with
cardiovascular diseases, which would increase the burden of risk factors. Intriguingly,

smartphone and web-based apps proved particularly useful for delivering exercise-based
interventions and reversing the decline in personal exercise habits. They were helpful in
measures.
The use of remotely supervised digital exercise has grown immensely in popularity as a
result of the forced closure of gyms and the resulting restrictions on the quantity of group-based
physical activity due to social distance. Overall, the variety of readily accessible applications and
websites provided legitimate ways to resume or start home-based personal training programs as
an alternative to in-person instruction. While some of them, including apps connected to exercise
games, were well-liked before the pandemic outbreak and continued to gain popularity after the
lockdowns, the essential novelty—and perhaps a key lesson—lies in the emergence of a brand-

included in the programming. They were told to use their own mobile phones to record at least
three 30-minute ET walks per week. To take part in a 12-week app-based structured ET program

populations.
motivation and physical fitness of university students during the implementation of the new
normal COVID-19 pandemic (2021). Sports are linked to success and health, which cannot be
isolated from a number of other aspects, such as learning motivation and physical fitness. This
study was done to find out how motivated children were to learn and how physically fit they
were during the COVID-19 pandemic. In the meantime, all three batches of students were

assigned a moderate categorization for their degree of physical fitness. The study's findings
demonstrated that students in Sports Education still showed a high level of learning desire and
that there was little variation in students' levels of physical fitness during the COVID-19
pandemic.
The needs of an expanding number of people displaying strong awareness of their health
and fitness are what have fueled the fitness industry's outstanding rise over the past few years.
The expanding population using fitness and health clubs and gyms is a reflection of this interest
in fitness. The professional training of fitness influencers typically includes the promotion of
exercise and a balanced diet. They become more well-known since they are able to meet the
demands of sizable customer populations who are eager to improve their health and wellness.
The majority of influencers have the chance to at least reach the level of "micro-influencers"
with a modest number of devoted fans. (Duplaga, M., 2020). Some people succeed in achieving
true celebrity status in the fields of fitness, healthy eating, or weight loss, and they are able to
make sizable sums of money by marketing their own brands or the sale of unique goods, such as
workout routines, special diets, healthy food, sportswear, and even gadgets. In the context of the
factors affecting the health of contemporary societies, the influence that fitness influencers have
Doping has traditionally been (and still is) linked to the growth of contemporary
organized sport because of the promise of new technologies and the utilization of biological
resources to increase performance and muscle bulk. As a result, the history of doping is also the
history of modernity and the malleable body. However, research shows that the primary
motivations for beginning to use these medicines are linked to goals of muscle development and
image enhancement, and as such are directly associated with the growth of gym and fitness
culture.
The historical evolution of doping use in the context of bodybuilding and fitness cultures
is discussed and analyzed in this article. With a view toward fitness doping in public discourse,
the emphasis is on historical and symbolic negotiations that have taken place throughout time
between perceived displays of extreme body cultures and sociocultural developments in society.
The paper should be viewed as primarily a review of the literature, based on a wide range of
studies describing and analyzing fitness doping in particular as well as bodybuilding and fitness
culture in general. However, there is also a desire to examine historical changes in fitness doping
With the aim of (a) presenting the general background of fitness doping, (b) developing
sociocultural and sociological theoretical framework, and (c) pointing towards potential future
developments, significant and decisive historical developments within gym and fitness culture
will be identified and analyzed (Andreasson, J., & Johansson, T., 2019b).

recommendations that focus on deficits and highlight the dangers of insufficient physical
activity. Instead, it promotes a strengths-based strategy for promoting health and well-being that
puts an emphasis on the intrinsic abilities of people, families, and communities. In terms of
healthcare settings, has demonstrated the efficacy and effectiveness of asset-based strategies.

as well as the large percentage of young adults who don't get the recommended amount of
exercise each week. A modifiable factor to address the developing mental health difficulties
among college-and university-aged students is low levels of physical activity. It has been
proposed that physical activity, especially outdoor pursuits, is particularly advantageous for both
the prevention and treatment of mental health issues. Even though research on the dose-response
relationship between physical activity and mood has produced mixed results, most experts agree
that any increase in physical activity over idleness is helpful. Educational institutions and
organizations that support students should encourage them to take part in a variety of sports,
physical activities, and outdoor pursuits (Grasdalsmoen et al., 2020). Exercise programs with
STI COLLEGE CALAMBA
STI Academic Center, Barangay Uno, National Highway,
Calamba City, 4027 Laguna
many components have been shown to be more successful in reducing fall-related injuries and
enhancing physical function in older persons. Every year, one in four people in the US who are
65 or older who fall suffer fatal injuries and require hospital stays. The most efficient programs
for lowering fractures and injuries from falls are those that emphasize balance, strength,
endurance, gait, and physical function training. Age-related physical function restrictions are
common in older persons, with 42.9% and 22.9% of those reporting functional limits,
respectively. The most direct links between increases in physical function and physical activity
are those involving aerobic, muscle-strengthening, and multi-component exercise (DiPietro et al.,
2019).
Cardiovascular disease caused by obesity is on the rise and is frequently comorbid with
conditions like type 2 diabetes. Regardless of body weight or the prevalence of type 2 diabetes,
exercise lowers cardiovascular risk factors. Exercise helps patients with cardiovascular illnesses

Exercise, both aerobic and anaerobic, improves heart remodeling, endothelial function, and lipid
metabolism. For the purpose of avoiding cardiovascular disease and lowering the risk of heart
attack and stroke, moderate to vigorous intensity exercise is advised. Age-related impairments in
muscle and biological function can be prevented and reversed through physical activity (Tian &

Meng, 2019). Type 2 diabetes and obesity-related cardiovascular disease are frequently
connected.
Exercise is a crucial kind of treatment since it lowers cardiovascular risk factors. Through
fatty acid oxidation, blood vessel dilatation, and decreased inflammation, it enhances
cardiovascular health. Benefits to the cardiovascular and overall systems are mediated by
myokines generated during exercise. Myokines may serve as prospective targets for heart disease
prevention and therapy, and further research is required to fully comprehend cardiac-specific
proteins and system cross-talk (Pinckard et al., 2019). Given its multi-tissue adaptations, regular
exercise has a considerable preventive effect against metabolic illness. To fully comprehend the
mechanistic effects of exercise on different tissues, more research is required. Target knockdown
studies might not identify a particular metabolic pathway, but a variety of things go into the
protection that exercises offers. To fully comprehend how exercise mediates metabolic benefits
outside of skeletal muscle processes, more research is required (Pinckard et al., 2019).
Developing motor skills results in procedural learning, which is long-lasting. Long-term memory

endurance, decrease the prevalence of neck pain (LBP), and lessen the disability brought on by
neck pain (Rodríguez‐Romero et al., 2019). Our findings demonstrated that HIE increases BDNF
cardiorespiratory fitness in healthy young individuals. Our findings may therefore support the
clinical advice of HIE as a promising, time-effective strategy that may maximize circulating
BDNF (Brain-derived neurotrophic factor) given the potential benefits to mental and
cardiometabolic health that may result from raising BDNF through the performance of HIE

improve their psychological health. Men exhibit higher levels of fitness and well-being, with
self-awareness and competence being key factors. Physical exercise and motivation are strongly
connected, with intrinsic motivation being the key determinant. Men value fun and competition,
but women prioritize their attractiveness or social connections. Extrinsic motivation is inversely
correlated with autonomy, indicating that people who depend more on outside stimuli may be
less autonomous. Exercise and therapies designed to boost motivation may therefore be helpful
for enhancing the psychological health of young adults (Granero-Jiménez et al., 2022).

engage in vigorous physical activity and exercise that causes sweating and breathlessness more
than twice per week before enlisting in the military may be protected from fatigue fractures. As a
result, engaging in frequent, high-intensity physical activity before to enlisting in the military

illnesses like cardiovascular mortality, obesity, sarcopenia, frailty, and disability. Exercise and
physical activity have therapeutic advantages across a range of disorders and impairments, which
makes them essential for maintaining health and well-being at all ages. Key aging factors include
damage, and insulin-like growth factor signaling are influenced by exercise and physical activity.
Physical activity and exercise increase health-related quality of life and physical function while
lowering the risk of premature overall mortality and non-communicable chronic illnesses.

cardiovascular health (Take home figure). Given the dose-response nature of these correlations,
older persons may lower their risk of developing CVD events in the future by increasing or
maintaining their physical activity levels (Kim et al., 2019). Resistance exercise training, or
RET, is a secure and efficient kind of exercise for triggering improvements in adults'

support the notion that promoting regular physical activity and exercise of low- to moderate-
intensity intensity is an important health promotion task to help emerging adults buffer the
mental stress (Herbert, 2022). Teenage physical activity (PA/exercise) and fitness are essential
for the development, maintenance, and health of the brain. These activities, which support brain
thriving across cultures and boundaries, are crucial for good brain development and mental

brain and the mind. incorporating continual evaluations and treatments pertaining to various
spheres of living into therapeutic practice encourages young people to have good mental and
physical health, especially through improving the treatment of mental illness and its effects on
functioning (Hosker et al., 2019). It draws attention to the possibility that regular exercise might
enhance both physical and mental health, but it also issues a warning about the dangers of
addiction and over-engagement. It highlights the need for academics and healthcare advocates to
adequately explain these difficulties, encouraging exercise as a behavior that promotes health
while addressing possible risks from addiction and over-exercising (Szabó et al., 2019).

expectations and support your site's efficient functionality, the user interface is crucial. Through
contrasting graphics, simple design, and responsiveness, a well-done user interface allows
successful interaction between the user and the program, app, or machine. It's crucial to take the
user's expectations for accessibility, visual appeal, and usability into account when creating a
user interface for your website. Your site's conversion rates will increase if you combine
effective graphics and responsiveness in a way that anticipates user demands and then meets
them (Indeed Editorial Team, 2022). Storing information discovered through research in a
polished model that becomes more obvious with time. New iterations of the same software can
be tested using the improved model, enabling continuous learning and testing. Additionally, it
enables the transfer of advanced models between other programs. This method does not,
however, cover all aspects of the subject, therefore there is still opportunity for development and
additional research (Degott et al., 2019). Lean UX methodology was successfully used to design

Fitness
Fitness is defined as a state of overall health and well-being, marked by the ability to
engage in daily physical activities and exercise. Therefore, the primary role of strength and
conditioning coaches is to prescribe appropriate physical fitness routines to athletes and clients to
help them achieve specific fitness objectives. Numerous studies have emphasized the importance
of core training and assessment in various populations (Tabacchi, G. et al., 2019) to enhance
performance and reduce the risk of injuries, such as those affecting the back and lower
extremities. Furthermore, core physical fitness exercises can contribute to lowering the risk of
STI COLLEGE CALAMBA
STI Academic Center, Barangay Uno, National Highway,
Calamba City, 4027 Laguna
musculoskeletal issues resulting from poor posture and a sedentary lifestyle, such as excessive
strain on the lumbar spine, hip extensor imbalances, and paraspinal muscle atrophy.
Physical inactivity and a sedentary lifestyle have been major health issues due to their
incremental disadvantages to one’s well-being. This has been made worse by the recent COVID-
19 crisis, which imposed home quarantines and restrictions on public activities and gatherings.
Staying and working at home increases screen time and deskbound activity, resulting in
decreased physical activity levels. Moreover, it is common that physical activity declines at a
high rate in adolescence and young adulthood. Additionally, convenient lifestyles and

This study aims to explore how individuals' motivations related to their appearance and
weight management might influence their intention to engage in exercise, particularly at the
gym. There is a lack of quantitative research that examines how the interplay between these
appearance and weight management motivations, along with the extent to which individuals
identify with physically attractive fitness trainers, can impact their intention to exercise.
In recent years, there has been a growing awareness among people about the close
relationship between physical activity and health promotion. This awareness has led individuals
to prioritize meeting their physiological needs, as outlined in Maslow's theory (Abu-Omar et al.,
STI COLLEGE CALAMBA

(ICTs) has significantly transformed society and daily life (Tseng, 2023). These technological
advancements have presented both opportunities and challenges for individuals and various
industries. The outbreak of COVID-19 has had a profound impact on consumer behavior and
business models, especially in the fitness industry. It has changed how people engage in physical
In response to the pandemic, consumers have reevaluated their exercise preferences and
sought alternative options to meet their fitness needs (Haman et al., 2020; Skauge & Seippel,
2020). These alternatives include subscribing to video courses and adopting interactive devices.
Consequently, the composition of value within the fitness industry has evolved.
Amid the pandemic, there has been a notable shift towards mobile technology, leading to
the development of numerous apps and smart wearable devices catering to the expanding
consumer market. For instance, fitness apps have seen significant growth, with a market size
valued at USD 1.1 billion in 2021 and an expected CAGR of 17.6% from 2022 to 2030. Many
consumers utilize wearable devices as tools for tracking their sports activities (Aroganam et al.,
2019). These apps facilitate personalized training experiences and eliminate the limitations of
time and space, creating substantial potential in the smart fitness industry.

(Farrokhi et al., 2021; Gupta et al., 2021; Hannan et al., 2021; Lee et al., 2021; Pal et al., 2020).
Fitness App
Nowadays, many people have been doing workouts and exercising, such as college
students. However, students lack time to go to the gym because of the overload of tasks and
assignments. That’s why they’ve been using mobile application exercise, but do mobile
application exercise and gym exercise have a significant difference in the fitness program?
This shows that both exercise programs were effective in enhancing the fitness
performance of the students. Also, the two groups with different exercise programs have an equal
mean gain. Therefore, it was concluded that mobile applications are as effective as gym exercises
in developing the fitness performance level of the students. (King Abram F. Cabauatan August,
2021).
This study, after they conduct study, shows that the majority of the respondents who use
fitness apps are male in the age of 20-35. It shows that most of the respondents consider using
this fitness app to be worthwhile. Most participants agree that fitness apps are highly effective in
providing facilities to attain their fitness goals with less cost t, time, and easy accessibility.
Importance of Workout
recognized the importance of incorporating workouts and exercise into their daily routines.
However, the demands of academic life often leave students with limited time to visit traditional
gyms, given the overwhelming load of tasks and assignments they face. In response to this
challenge, many students have turned to mobile applications that offer convenient and flexible
exercise routines. The question that naturally arises from this shift in exercise habits is whether
compared to traditional gym exercises in improving fitness levels among students. To address
this inquiry, a comprehensive study was undertaken to compare the outcomes of these two
distinct exercise modalities. The study sought to assess the impact on fitness performance,
muscular strength, and endurance. The data collected from a sample group of 23 college students
was subjected to rigorous analysis. The findings of this study provided valuable insights.
Surprisingly, the statistical analysis indicated that there was no significant difference in the mean
exercises and those who adhered to traditional gym workouts. This compelling evidence
underscores the efficacy of both exercise programs in enhancing the fitness performance of
college students. Importantly, it demonstrates that the two groups, one utilizing mobile
applications and the other engaging in gym-based exercises, achieved similar mean gains in their
fitness levels. Consequently, the study conclusively suggests that mobile applications are just as
STI COLLEGE CALAMBA
STI Academic Center, Barangay Uno, National Highway,
Calamba City, 4027 Laguna
effective as traditional gym exercises in elevating the fitness performance levels of college
students. In a society where convenience and accessibility are highly prized, these findings not

Being physically and mentally healthy is everyone's greatest desire. Many people have
started using such apps as they have realized the importance of these apps in their daily lives.
This need was recognized by the pioneers of fitness application development. This study aims to
understand the users' stance on fitness apps available on mobile devices. Basically, the study
focuses on the effectiveness of fitness apps in terms of various factors like time, cost, and
accessibility. In this study, they will also explain why these apps are preferred over fitness
centers. Important information was collected using primary sources to improve user participation
in app usage. From the study, they found that the majority of the respondents who use fitness
apps are young adult males in the age group of 20-35. About 30 percent of respondents prefer
apps that focus on workouts rather than diet and nutrition as an important aspect of fitness. Even
though half of the respondents like to remain fit always, only 32 percent follow all the
instructions of the app frequently and consistently. 60 percent of respondents find the app that
they are using effective. The analysis of their study shows that the majority of the respondents
agree that apps are cheaper than fitness centers and help save their time. This study shows that
STI COLLEGE CALAMBA
STI Academic Center, Barangay Uno, National Highway,
Calamba City, 4027 Laguna
about 46 percent of respondents agree that apps provide ample exercise guidance at a lower cost
than fitness centers. Almost 70 percent of respondents did not have any negative impact on their
health after using the app and would like to refer the app to others. (Sakitha A. J., et al 2020)
The World Health Organization highlighted the importance of physical activity and
included it in its international strategic plans for the advancement of human health throughout
the world, especially during the Corona pandemic. The goal was to reduce the negative effects of
the pandemic on people's physical and psychological health. Since the COVID-19 outbreak,
researchers have had different viewpoints about the psychosocial, social, and physical effects of
exposure to COVID-19. In addition, loneliness, the death of a loved one, loss of freedom,
worries about the possibility of getting infected with the virus, and thoughts about the disease as
well as the pain it may cause have had a strong negative impact on the physical and
psychological health of human beings. They measured the improvement in psychological well-
being and provided some information on aspects of health associated with the consequences and
requirements of the current status of the Corona pandemic. Their study indicated the importance
of the program in improving children's knowledge, and physical, and psychological condition. Of
course, there have been multiple interventions to improve people's psychological and physical
condition and to take advantage of modern technology to meet the challenges of the present time
and the emergency situation in the world through the use of technology. In order to find a good
solution to deal with the pandemic's restrictions, the world's attention was directed to take

emergency conditions. In the past, several studies pointed out the role of technology in
improving and tracking the health and fitness of human beings. Health and fitness mobile
applications have become part of the basic applications on smartphones used by millions of
people of all ages. Some of them are intended to preserve and track the health and physical status
of individuals including their weight, heartbeat, height, blood type, and fat percentage. Thus, this

Precisely in Spain, 2352 million euros were invoiced in 2019, accumulating a total of 5.5 million
users in its 4743 fitness centers. Faced with the current pandemic situation produced by COVID-
19, fitness centers have the challenge of continuing to apply and implement digitization to
continue growing and adapting to the new formulas for user relationships and consumption. A
growth in the use of apps related to health and fitness has also been observed in order to promote
physical exercise and knowledge of the condition and health of users. For this reason, an increase
in the number of apps developed related to health and fitness has been observed in recent years,
just as the interest in their scientific study. (Valcarce-Torrente, M., et al. 2021)
Recently, there has been a surge in studies aiming to assess consumer behavior when
using sports applications, thanks to advancements in technology. This study examines 13 studies
that propose a model for evaluating consumers' intentions to use fitness applications. The
objective is to conduct a systematic review of the literature on consumer intentions to use mobile
applications related to fitness and physical activity. The constant evolution of technology and the
rise of mobile devices like smartphones and tablets have made these devices an integral part of
consumers' lives. Consequently, organizations have had to adapt their interactions with
consumers. Studies have been conducted to evaluate consumer motivations for using devices, the
usefulness of apps, and consumer intentions to adopt them in various sectors. Researchers have
STI COLLEGE CALAMBA
STI Academic Center, Barangay Uno, National Highway,
Calamba City, 4027 Laguna
identified the factors that influence the intention to use technologies, smartphones, and apps in
different sectors, including the sports context. In the sports literature, there is also a growing
focus on the behavior of fans and consumers. Studies have explored motivation on sports
wearables, consumption of smartphones and sports apps, sports team apps, fitness apps, and
sports products. However, existing research does not provide clear results on the factors that
drive sports fans or consumers to use smartphones or apps and benefit from new experiences in
sports. The intention to use smartphones and apps in sports is influenced by various factors,
depending on the types of products consumed and the marketing implications. Therefore, the aim
of this study is to conduct a systematic review of the literature on consumers' intention to use
apps related to fitness and physical activity. This systematic review addresses the need to
critically evaluate existing research on sports app usage intentions, as it is an emerging research
area. However, the limited number of scientific studies and some methodological shortcomings,
such as the risk analysis of study bias, do not allow for a more critical evaluation. These results
highlight the need for more thorough and systematic research by researchers in this field. They
also identify common factors that can better assess the use of new technologies in sports settings.
Additionally, the findings provide a set of recommendations for sports organizations and
researchers to engage in future research, allowing for a better understanding and utilization of

intensity physical activity and exercise is an essential role in health promotion to assist emerging
people in reducing the psychological, cognitive, and emotional demands of primarily sedentary
activities and mental stress (Herbert, 2022). Preliminary neuroimaging research indicates that
teenage physical activity and fitness are crucial for the brain's development, maintenance, and
health, supporting brain thriving across cultures and boundaries, and thereby promoting good
mental health in teenagers worldwide (Belcher et al., 2021). The advantages of physical activity,
a nutritious diet, and sufficient rest for young people's physical health are well known. The
advantages of these activities for mental health and wellness, including mental health disorders,
are, however, also being highlighted by new studies. These advantages are intricate and relate to
mental and cognitive growth. Improvements in young people's mental health and functioning can
be made by incorporating ongoing assessments and therapies into therapeutic practices (Hosker
