 LESSON

Getting involved in physical activities can be attributed to personal and

environmental factors. A person may experience variety of challenges along the way.
This hinders the person to be physically active, hence, referred to as barriers.

Personal Barriers
With the current trends in technology and development, people’s lives have
become convenient and easier as well as less active. They may also have reasons or
own justifications of their inactivity that forms their attitude towards physical
movement, letting them live a sedentary life.

Some common personal barriers for resistance to sports participation are:

 Busy schedule as student, sports participation is often not a priority
Inconvenience to play sports
 Insufficient time to participate in sports
Fear of being injured or having been injured recently
Health considerations
Lack of Energy
 Lack of confidence in their ability to be physically active (low self-efficacy)
 Lack of self-management skills, such as the ability to set personal goals, monitor
progress, or reward progress toward such goals
 Lack of self-motivation - Thinking about getting more time for sports activities,
but cannot start
 Lack of skill
Lack of time
No enough money to buy for the sports equipment/supplies
Non-enjoyment, boredom of playing sports
Sports participation takes too much time away from other commitments-time,
studies, family, etc.
Too tired after school to get any sports activities

Environmental Barriers
Some may not notice but the space and the setting where people live greatly
influence a person’s participation to sports. The constant exposure and the daily
interaction with the people and things around have great impact on a person’s
preference towards bodily execution and movement.
The environment in which we live has a great influence on our level of
physical activity. Many factors in our environment affect us. These factors include
are:
Crime around the community
Lack of resources
 No access to jogging trails, swimming pools, bike paths, covered court, etc.
 Pollution
 Social Influence- None of the family members or friends like to do the sports
activities, so I do not have a chance to participate too.
Traffic
Unavailability of parks, grounds, or sports facilities
Weather conditions
