Regular physical activity provides health benefits, including the reduction in risks of coronary heart disease, hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, obesity, colon cancer, and premature mortality. Despite this information, most women are physically inactive. Research findings shed light on the gender differences in physiological responses to physical activity. Patterns and predictors of physical activity vary significantly by gender. Further study is needed of the benefits, barriers, and personally meaningful outcomes of physical activity for women, specifically including the frequently unspoken correlates of urinary incontinence, depression and mood disorders, and obesity.
规律的体育活动对健康有益,包括降低冠心病、高血压、2型糖尿病、肥胖症、结肠癌和过早死亡的风险。尽管有这些信息,但大多数女性缺乏体育活动。研究结果揭示了身体活动生理反应中的性别差异。体育活动的模式和预测因素因性别而异。需要进一步研究体育活动对女性的益处、障碍和个人有意义的结果,特别是包括尿失禁、抑郁症和情绪障碍以及肥胖症等经常未被提及的关联因素。
