Self-compassion facilitates health behavior self-regulation; few studies have examined self-compassion and exercise. This online, cross-sectional study investigated self-compassion's relationship with exercise self-regulation of an exercise setback. Adults (N = 105) who had experienced an exercise setback within the last 6 months completed baseline measures, recalled an exercise setback, and completed questionnaires assessing self-regulation in this context. Self-compassion associated with self-determined motivations and exercise goal reengagement, and negatively related to extrinsic motivations, state rumination, and negative affect. Self-compassion predicted unique variance, beyond self-esteem, in exercise goal reengagement, external regulation, state rumination, and negative affect experienced after an exercise setback. Self-compassion and self-esteem had unique relationships with goal reengagement, state rumination, and situational motivation, while having a complementary relationship with negative affect. This research adds to the few studies that examine the role of self-compassion in exercise self-regulation by examining how self-compassion and self-esteem relate to reactions to a recalled exercise setback.
自我同情有助于健康行为的自我调节；很少有研究探讨自我同情与运动的关系。这项在线横断面研究调查了自我同情与运动挫折的运动自我调节之间的关系。在过去6个月内经历过运动挫折的成年人（N = 105）完成了基线测量，回忆了一次运动挫折，并完成了在此背景下评估自我调节的问卷。自我同情与自主动机和运动目标重新参与相关，与外在动机、状态反刍和消极情绪呈负相关。自我同情预测了运动挫折后运动目标重新参与、外部调节、状态反刍和消极情绪中超出自尊的独特方差。自我同情和自尊与目标重新参与、状态反刍和情境动机有独特的关系，而与消极情绪有互补关系。这项研究通过考察自我同情和自尊如何与回忆起的运动挫折的反应相关，为少数研究自我同情在运动自我调节中的作用的研究增添了内容。
