About this Research Topic
While sport and physical activity research have predominantly focused on male subjects, it is imperative to prioritize studies on women’s participation to build comprehensive knowledge in this domain. Understanding the unique physiological mechanisms, training loads, recovery patterns, and performance contexts specific to women will provide valuable insights for practitioners. Additionally, investigating the evolutionary basis of sex differences in sports interest and motivation can inform policy and program design.
This Research Topic offers an opportunity to publish high-quality research centered on physical activity and exercise for women across various age groups, including children, adults, and older adults. We are particularly interested in innovative intervention research in school settings, community-based programs, or sports environments aimed at promoting women's physical activity and fitness levels. Additionally, studies exploring the impact of exercise on injury prevention and treatment are highly welcome.
All submissions will be peer-reviewed by experts in the field, ensuring the highest quality of research dissemination.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Implementation and impact of physical activity interventions.
- Continuous monitoring systems for physical activity across different age groups of women.
- Individualized physical activity programs to meet specific needs.
- Health-promoting interventions and their effects.
- Assessment of physical fitness as an indicator of health.
- Evolutionary perspectives on sex differences in sports interest and motivation.
We invite original research, systematic reviews, case studies, clinical trials, and reviews addressing these themes to contribute to this critical and growing field.
