Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: In contemporary society, obesity has emerged as a global public health challenge, particularly with its rising prevalence among younger populations. As the backbone of youth demographics, college students’ health directly impacts national development. However, many obese students demonstrate low engagement in physical activities, which not only jeopardizes their physical well-being but may also adversely affect psychological resilience and social adaptability. Therefore, it is imperative to investigate the root causes behind this low exercise participation among obese college students and develop effective countermeasures.
