A new study commissioned by Asics exploring women’s exercise levels and their mental wellbeing reveals that while woman who exercise regularly are generally happier, over 51% of them either stop exercise or are forced to reduce their regime to less than they’d like.
And while the women in the study cited practical obstacles as the reasons, 54% of men surveyed believed that women drop out of exercise because they don’t enjoy it, while only 34% of men recognized lack of time as a barrier to exercise for women, despite 74% of women citing the issue.
