Recently, researchers conducted a survey to investigate what motivates young adults to exercise. The study might shed light on why so few college students exercise and why many stop their exercise workouts after they graduate. Researchers analyzed responses from 937 randomly selected college students at a leading U.S. university. What the research team found was that 39% of the male students and 26% of the female students exercised at least three days a week for 20 minutes at a time. These exercise patterns were fairly similar to those in surveys at other universities. The survey also revealed some critical factors which motivate college students to exercise.
Men who exercised regularly reported that their friends provided considerable support for them to do so. Those who exercised only occasionally had moderate support from their friends, while those who did not exercise at all had little or no support from friends. For women, however, the crucial motivating factor seemed to come from family members rather than from friends. Women who exercised regularly had a great deal of positive support to do so from their families. However, women who exercised only occasionally received moderate levels of encouragement from their families, while those who did not work out at all received little or no support from their families. Since college students often live far from home, women students are likely to have a weaker support system than do their male counterparts.
A medical professor, upon seeing the results of the study, remarked that generally there is not so much emphasis on body performance among girls and young women. “It’s a macho thing to be able to run faster or lift weights,” he said. “However,” he continued, “for the younger generation, this gender gap appears to be getting smaller.”

It is not difficult for me to imagine how life used to be in the past. My grandfather used to tell me people and things of his generation. According to what he said, life in the Vietnamese traditional village was very peaceful. Although there weren't any convenient means of communication such as telephone email, people still kept in touch and interacted with each other. They were very happy their stories with their family and neighbors. Sometimes, they even regarded their neighbors as relatives and always supported others. It was very common in those days for villagers to gather up in the house to watch TV or listen to radio together because there was often only one or two televisions in a small village. My grandfather said that he preferred life in the past to the modern life because people were friendlier and more .
