Abstract

This study examined the physical activity abilities of contemporary college students by assessing muscle strength, muscle endurance, and body stability. The research examined aspects of their physical exercise behavior such as exercise frequency, focus, duration, and type. The results showed that the participants were predominantly female, freshmen, and medical students. Overall, college students scored at an average level in physical activity abilities; freshmen scored higher in muscle strength, while senior students scored higher in endurance. Additionally, senior students excelled in certain types of exercises. The study also found a negative correlation between muscle strength/body stability and exercise frequency, indicating a decrease in these abilities with increased exercise frequency. Conversely, other indicators showed a positive correlation with exercise frequency, suggesting an increase in exercise levels with higher physical activity levels as this can result in a page being rejected by search engines. Ensure that your abstract reads well and is grammatically correct.
