Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are thrilled to present this Special Issue of International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health focusing on "Exercise in Living Environments: A Healthy Lifestyle". In recent years, there has been growing recognition of the intricate relationship between physical activity and the environments in which we live, work, and play. This Special Issue brings together a collection of insightful research articles that explore various aspects of this dynamic interplay.
From urban landscapes to natural settings and from workplace environments to home spaces, the ways in which our surroundings influence our exercise behaviors and outcomes are manifold. Understanding these interactions is crucial for developing effective strategies to promote physical activity and enhance public health.
The articles featured in this Special Issue delve into topics such as the impact of built environments on physical activity levels, the role of technology in facilitating active living, and the importance of designing inclusive spaces that encourage movement for all individuals. It is our hope that this collection will inspire further research, spark innovative ideas, and inform policies aimed at creating environments that support and encourage active lifestyles.
Dr. Yongsuk Seo
Guest Editor
