"These results demonstrate the likelihood that exercise dependence will develop in a climate in which comparison between exercisers prevails, as compared to a climate focused on effort and personal improvement" The study also shows that "regarding different types of motivation, the highest scores were in intrinsic regulation and identified regulation, and the lowest scores in nonself- determined forms of motivation" meaning that internal motivators are stronger than external motivators.

Additionally, male sport is financially priviledged over female sport. “Appropriate female appearance includes being soft, sexy, clean, and toned. Prevailing social codes encourage males to be competitive, assertive, strong, and muscular.” This effects what kinds of exercises men an women choose to participate in. Additionally, male sport is financially and socially privileged over female sport. “In the USA, approximately 60 percent of all school related sporting opportunities are designated for males and ⅔ of sport budgets are allocated for male sport teams.” (Beauchamp & Eys 2014).]]> 2018-03-19 23:28:03 UTC https://padlet.com/kennyce/z65ryjevw5q7/wish/243794271 kennyce https://padlet.com/kennyce/z65ryjevw5q7/wish/243794947 Counter Argument- “Past work conducted in sport and PE settings has documented a positive and direct association between perceptions of a task involving climate and self determined forms of motivation.
