Abstract [sv]

It is scientifically proved that physical activity is one of the most important factors for a healthy life. It is also known that diseases and illness can be traced to physical inactivity. Because of this it is of great importance to get the Swedish people to become more active. According to the LIV90 survey only 50 percent of the 20-35 years olds and 35 percent of the 36-50 year olds in Sweden were physically active. This means that more than half of the Swedish inhabitants are too inactive and are at risk of being taken ill or dying prematurely. To overcome this problem the Swedish Government has appointed the year 2001 to become a physical activity year with the goal to influence more people to become active maintain their exercise habits. The purpose of study was to examine what has influenced adults to exercise. The method was qualitative and interviews were made with five woman and four men. All the nine informants were betwen 25 and 45 years old and exercised at the time at a gym in the south of Sweden. The results show what has influenced the informants to exercise. These factors have led to a model that contains the following parts: physical education, sports in an association or spontaneously, entrances, inner and outer factors and investment values.
