Most research on relapse from exercise has investigated one relapse episode following a structured program. The present study examined the patterns and determinants of the lifetime history of relapse from exercise in a community population. Subjects were 1.811 randomly selected residents of San Diego, California who completed an extensive mailed survey. Subjects reported the number of times over their lifetime that they had exercised vigorously for at least six months and then stopped exercising for at least three months. Approximately 60% of subjects reported zero relapses, 20% reported one or two relapses, and 20% reported three or more relapses. Relapse histories of current exercisers and current nonexercisers were virtually identical. The most commonly reported reason for the last relapse was injuries for both nonexecisers and exercisers. Multiple regression analyses were used to identify correlates of exercise relapse history. These data indicate that cross-sectional surveys of exercise behavior are inadequate to characterize exercise behavior in a population, and injuries are probably a major cause of relapse.
大多数关于运动复发的研究都调查了在一个结构化项目之后的一次复发情况。本研究考察了社区人群中运动终生复发史的模式和决定因素。研究对象是从加利福尼亚州圣地亚哥随机选取的1811名居民，他们完成了一份内容广泛的邮寄调查问卷。研究对象报告了他们一生中进行至少六个月剧烈运动然后停止运动至少三个月的次数。大约60%的研究对象报告零次复发，20%报告一到两次复发，20%报告三次或更多次复发。当前运动者和当前非运动者的复发史几乎相同。对于非运动者和运动者来说，上次复发最常报告的原因都是受伤。多元回归分析被用于确定运动复发史的相关因素。这些数据表明，运动行为的横断面调查不足以描述人群中的运动行为，并且受伤可能是复发的一个主要原因。
