While the clear majority said that exercising was essential to them, they nevertheless failed to exercise for the recommended number of hours each week. Although people are aware of the benefits of doing exercise and have the right attitude about it, they have lately had trouble actually exercising out.

However, the lack of time, energy, and inspiration to exercise were the most generally acknowledged factors in the demotivation to exercise. People who were overweight had several consequences, such as desires for fast food and urges to indulge in it. A majority of the respondents said that they spend money on inexpensive meals at least twice or three times every day. Since they lead busy lives, those aged 15 to 26 are significantly tougher to approach. People might be informed about the value of physical exercise via a tailored intervention.
