Abstract
Exercise refers to any intentional activity aimed to promote or maintains physical fitness and overall wellness. Regular exercise is crucial in maintaining healthy well-being. There is a growing concern that most middle-aged adults commit less to physical exercise. The primary purpose of this study is to examine the attitudes of middle-aged adults towards regular exercise based on religious commitment. One hundred and six middle-aged adults within the age range of 40-49 (M = 45.04, SD = 2.37) comprising males and females were mainly pooled from the Kogi state civil service between January and March, 2021. A cross-sectional design was adopted. It was hypothesized that religious commitment would significantly account for the variance in adults attitude towards regular exercise. However, the linear regression analysis conducted on the data revealed no statistically significant effect of religious commitment on attitude towards regular exercise. The study concludes that religious belief does not account for the variation in attitude towards regular exercise among the middle-aged adults in Nigeria.
