Document Summary
Defining the boundaries of the psychology of human movement science. Four domains we look at: sport, exercise, health, rehabilitation. Understanding sport behaviour (tendency and behaviour followthrough) Excessive amounts of each can lead to negative effects. Going to look at the bene ts of exercise and how it can reduce mental health issues. How exercise can help ppl get off cigarettes/addictions. Understood that exercise is good for both physical and mental health. Yet still most ppl don"t do= problem. Recreational exercise- purposely need to pay more attention to then exercise in the gym. (household choirs, walking to work, gardening) Even if we work out, sitting to much can cause serious problems. Working out and inactive behaviour do not counter balance each other. How ppl go about moving throughout the day- can be measured through a written or online survey- questionnaire. Motion sensor system that actually measure free living activity.
