Abstract: Abstract: Exercise is important for maintaining physical fitness, which is the ability to do daily tasks with ease. Physical fitness can protect against many chronic diseases that are major causes of death and disability, such as cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, diabetes, and so on. The purpose of this study was to compare the motivation and adherence levels of young men and women who completed an eight-week aerobic exercise training program. Motivation is the psychological process that initiates, directs, and sustains behaviour toward a certain goal or outcome. Adherence is the extent to which a person follows or completes a prescribed course of action or behaviour. The study also examined the relationship between motivation and adherence in physical activity and exercise behaviour. Method : The study used a cross-sectional design, where 35 university students (19 females and 16 males) were included in the study after completing an eight-week structured aerobic exercise training program. The program consisted of three sessions per week, each lasting 45 minutes, at a moderate intensity of 60-70% of the maximum heart rate. The program was supervised by trained instructors and tailored to the individual fitness levels and preferences of the participants. Three weeks after completing the program, the participants’ motivation and adherence levels were assessed using two questionnaires: the Behavioural Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire-3 (BREQ-3) and the Exercise Adherence Rating Scale (EARS). The BREQ-3 measures the different types of motivation for exercise, ranging from intrinsic motivation (doing exercise for its own sake) to extrinsic motivation (doing exercise for external reasons). The EARS measures how well the participants followed or completed their prescribed exercise sessions. The results of the study showed that there was no significant difference in motivation(t = -0.57; P = 0.57) or adherence(t = 0.61; P = 0.55) levels between men and women. This means that gender did not have a significant effect on these variables. However, the results also showed that there was a strong positive correlation (P = 0.00) between motivation and adherence levels among the participants. This means that the higher the motivation level for exercise, the higher the adherence level for exercise, and vice versa. This suggests that motivation and adherence are closely related factors that influence each other in physical activity and exercise behaviour.
