Emotional Reflexivity and Lifelong Leisure Time Physical Activity: Managing 'Successful Womanhood' for Busy Middle-Class Women
This article examines leisure time physical activity (LTPA) for middle-class women as relational, intricately linked with societal understandings of personal responsibility to work, to family and to health and entangled with the emotion management of 'successful' middle-class womanhood. We focus on middle-class Danish women who engage in routinised participation in LTPA. We illuminate through our qualitative study how emotional reflexivity involv…
Middle Aged Men in Lycra and the Performative Irony of Watching Tour de France
Middle Aged Man in Lycra (MAMIL) is a cultural phenomenon associated with a gendered and conspicuous practice that can be inclusive by attracting individuals not previously engaged in physical activities as well as exclusive due to its gender and socio-economic conformity. Inspired by the works of Linda Hutcheon and Judith Butler, we argue that the MAMIL is an ironic figure constituting a complex and multifaceted character deeply embedded in a pa…
Exercise in the time bind of work and family. Emotion management of personal leisure time among middle-aged Danish women
The aim of the present study was to illuminate how middle-aged women in Denmark manage, practically and emotionally, exercise in personal leisure time within the constraints of an ongoing time bind related to the societal obligations of work and family. The study was inspired by the micro sociological perspective of Arlie Hochschild, and findings are based on empirical material from focus groups of middle-aged Danish women who completed a three m…
Qualitative research in sports studies: Challenges, Possibilities and the Current State of Play
Qualitative social scientific research in sport, exercise and other contemporary forms of physical movement has made considerable strides in recent years, such that it is not an unreasonable claim
Football Fitness - for the sake of one’s health? The perspectives of female players
The aim of the article is to understand the potential of football in health initiatives for women – a topic relatively underrepresented in research. Specifically, this article examines the case of ‘Football Fitness’, a new ‘sport for all’ programme carried out in associative sport clubs in Denmark. The article is based on six focus group interviews with white, middle-class female participants (N = 32, aged 27–56). The study shows that while healt…
The rationalization of leisure time – the scarcity of emotional excitement in a health-promoting exercise intervention for women
The aim of this article is to understand how the established biomedical perspective on the body enables and constrains participation in physical activity. Based on a sociological standpoint, an exercise intervention with middle-aged women is analysed through empirical material from observation (N = 57), focus groups (N = 51) and individual follow-up interviews (N = 21). The article finds that spinning is a highly routinized and structured activit…
Football Fitness: Constraining and Enabling Possibilities for the Management of Leisure Time for Women
The aim of the article is to identify constraining and enabling aspects for the management of leisure time for women participating in 'Football Fitness', a new 'sport for all programme' carried out in associative sport clubs in Denmark. The article is based on six focus group interviews with white, middle-class female participants (N = 32, aged 27-56). An analysis combining Hochschild's conceptualization of the second and third shift [1989. The S…
