“…lower odds of engaging in SA. Also, men tend to be less active when they are losing interest in sex, showing that SA often coincides with other types of PA - Butt (1990) showed that the understanding of sexual activity as a physical activity occurs, and is positively impacting on health and wellbeing. The results confirm that the self-rated early bird people have a more active sex life and more active hobbies.…”

Hitherto empirical research provides insight on particular dimensions or aspects thereof, but analyses that include diverse determinants of the physical activity are scarcer. The aim of the research was to examine the profile of adults who engage in sport activity, using a multi-layer, socio-ecological approach. Combined database: The Social Diagnosis 2015, The Statistics Poland 2014, and the Orliki 2012 was applied. The resulting sample consists of 8,361 adult respondents aged 25–70 years. Sport activity and sport clubs’ membership were measured as dependent variables. According to the Bronfenbrenner’s layered model number of outcome variables were described. While being consistent with fundamental facts known from the literature (e.g. significance of age, education, family, social networks and cultural aspects, the results point to a heterogeneity in determining sport activity. Firstly, women and men differ qualitatively – the set of characteristics important for sport activity is different. For example, while minor health issues seem to instigate activity of women, for men they are rather negatively related. Secondly, different factors are relevant for initiating the activity than for sustaining it. Furthermore, sport activity is rather positively related to other activities related to social life or to the life-long learning. This suggests that a substitution effect, in terms of time, is less important than the general tendency to be engaged in different aspects of life. Lastly, active membership of sports clubs is not only rare, but also qualitatively differs from sports activity in terms of socio-ecological profile of the participants. The obtained results emphasize the need to create and implement nuanced and varied policies to support increase in physical activity in modern societies. Traditional, ‘hard’ measures like providing physical (facilities) or organisational (sports clubs) infrastructure seem to have limited effectiveness.

“…Regular physical activities enhance endothelial nitric-oxide synthase (eNOS) expression and function leading to increased nitric-oxide (NO) production and thereby vasodilation (Dimmeler and Zeiher 2003). This process improves the efficiency of the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to body cells and tissues, thus keeping the tissues healthy and strong (Butt 1990). …”

Is Sex Good for Your Health? A National Study on Partnered Sexuality and Cardiovascular Risk among Older Men and Women

Working from a social relationship and life course perspective, we provide generalizable population-based evidence on partnered sexuality linked to cardiovascular risk in later life using national longitudinal data from the NSHAP (N=2204). We consider characteristics of partnered sexuality of older men and women, particularly sexual activity and sexual quality, as they affect cardiovascular risk. Cardiovascular risk is defined as hypertension, rapid heart rate, elevated CRP, and general cardiovascular events. We find that older men are more likely to report being sexually active, report having sex more often and more enjoyably than are older women. Results from cross-lagged models suggest that high frequency of sex is positively related to later risk of cardiovascular events for men but not women, whereas good sexual quality seems to protect women but not men from cardiovascular risk in later life. We find no evidence that poor cardiovascular health interferes with later sexuality for either gender.

En el estudio participaron 179 estudiantes (39 mujeres sedentarias, 40 hombres sedentarios, 34 mujeres físicamente activas y 66 hombres físicamente activos); con una edad promedio de 20.4 ± 3 años. Todos los participantes completaron el IPAQ-7, el Índice de Satisfacción Sexual y la versión en español del Multidimensional Body Self Relations Questionnaire (MBSRQ). Se realizaron análisis de varianza 2 x 2 de grupos independientes (Sexo x Nivel de Actividad Física). Se encontró que no existe relación entre el nivel de actividades físicas, la imagen corporal y la satisfacción sexual en hombres y mujeres universitarios.
