Influence of same-sex and mixed-sex exercise settings on the social physique anxiety and exercise intentions of males and females

Article Abstract:

Situational social physique anxiety (SPA) and immediate exercise intentions in male and female fitness club members were examined in response to all-female, all-male and mixed-sex exercise setting scenarios. The presence of men in an exercise setting stimulates physique anxiety in women, and that exercising in an all-female environment may have the least negative impact on the exercise behavior of women.
