The relationship between social media, exercise motivation and exercise behaviour in physically active men
Fitness-based social media is growing in popularity, however its effects on exercise motivation and behaviour are underexplored in men. A cross-sectional design was used to investigate this in 224 male social media users (M Age = 32.76, range = 18-50, 81.8% White) in the UK. Questionnaires on social media use, (Overall, Platform and Fitness Social Media Use) and exercise (Motivation, Frequency and History) were completed. Results showed that Fitn…
Active and passive social media use
Little is known about how different types of engagement with social media (active vs passive) relate to body image in men.

A questionnaire containing measures of body image (appearance valence, appearance salience), drive for muscularity, and social media use was completed by 224 men aged 18–50 years. Re…

As anxious participants also self-reported directing greater attention toward movement, this suggests that fall-related anxiety may disrupt the visual control of gait through increased conscious movement processing
