To examine resistance training (RT) barriers among college-aged women.
Female college students (n = 223) from a Midwestern university.
Data were collected in September 2014. Participants completed a survey assessing demographics, current and past RT habits, and barriers to resistance training. Descriptive statistics were used to examine barrier agreement. Differences between current and past RT participation, residency, and class standing were analyzed.
A majority of participants were Caucasian (78.9%) and, on average, 19.7 ± 1.5 years of age; 52% participated in RT and 46.6% met RT recommendations. Women who did not report current RT participation reported significantly higher mean agreement with all barriers, compared to those who do RT. Highest agreement was observed within socially based barriers.
A majority of college-aged women are not meeting RT recommendations. Providing educational programs and avenues for finding same-sex RT partners may be most beneficial for overcoming common RT barriers.
调查大学生女性进行抗阻训练的障碍因素。
来自美国中西部一所大学的 223 名女性大学生。
数据于 2014 年 9 月收集。参与者完成了一项调查，评估了人口统计学特征、当前和过去的抗阻训练习惯，以及抗阻训练的障碍因素。使用描述性统计来检验障碍因素的一致性。分析了当前和过去的抗阻训练参与情况、居住地点和年级差异。
大多数参与者为白种人（78.9%），平均年龄为 19.7 ± 1.5 岁；52%的参与者进行了抗阻训练，46.6%的参与者达到了抗阻训练的推荐标准。与进行抗阻训练的女性相比，未报告当前抗阻训练参与的女性报告的所有障碍因素的平均一致性显著更高。在基于社会的障碍因素中，观察到的一致性最高。
大多数大学生女性没有达到抗阻训练的推荐标准。提供教育项目和寻找同性抗阻训练伙伴的途径可能最有利于克服常见的抗阻训练障碍。
