Abstract

Identifying profiles of fitness center users in terms of motivation and attitudes toward fitness training can serve as a behavioral strategy for enhancing exercise performance. This study explores the relationship between motivation, attitude, and performance in fitness training, aiming to elucidate the influence of motivation and attitude on the performance of fitness center users. Forty fitness center members participated in this correlational research, which examines the relationship between multiple variables. The researchers tested the hypotheses using the simple Pearson Product Mo-ment Correlation Technique and the multiple correlation test. The research yielded two key results: (1) a significant relationship between motivation, attitude, and performance (p < 0.001), and (2) a strong simultaneous relationship between motivation, attitude, and performance (r = 0.621, p < 0.001). In summary, motivation and attitude exert a tangible impact on training performance, with higher le-vels of motivation and positive attitude corresponding to improved performance. By understanding and reinforcing the interplay between motivation and attitude in fitness training, individuals can esta-blish a solid foundation for attaining their fitness objectives and sustaining a healthy, active lifestyle. © 2024, DJ Studio.
