Setting health training objectives based on the assessment of preferred areas of health behavior in a group of active women with chronic back pain: a pilot study of the cross-sectional research

Summary/Abstract: Background: The systematicity of health training (HT) for a participant with back pain still remains a challenge, while the regularity of exercises is an important objective of HT. Aim of the study: Getting to know the health determinants of active women with chronic back pain (ChBP), assessing the degree of variation in the hierarchy of health criteria, and their areas according to the length of HT. Material and methods: Women (n=159; 19–76 years old) were divided into three groups according to their length of training: A – less than 2 years and/or unsystematic, B – systematic 2–4 years; C – systematic for more than 4 years. List of Health Criteria Questionnaire by Zygfryd Juczyński. Results: Women from group A place health in the area related to the maintenance of the condition. The ladies from group B are focused on a specific health outcome. The women from group C understand that health is the need to follow a specific process and to work towards a defined goal. Conclusions: Attendance during the entire training cycle can be used to assess a participant’s understanding of HT goals. The motives for HT depend on the length of training. In the beginners’ group, other educational arguments should be used to build awareness of the long-term goals of HT.Keywords: health training, health criteria, goal setting, women with ChBP
