E-Lifestyles are individual forms of behavior in the digital environment that reflect the values, activities, interests, and opinions of consumers. Likewise, fitness Apps are considered technological tools for promoting physical activity online. Although there are studies related to sports lifestyles, it has not been analyzed yet how e-lifestyles are related to the use of fitness Apps. Based on this, this study represents a step to clarify how e-lifestyles influence different relationships with perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, attitude, and intentions to use Fitness Apps. Therefore, the objective of the study was to analyze the relationship between the e-lifestyles of consumers of Boutique fitness centers and their relationship with the perceived ease of use, the perceived usefulness, the attitude, and the intention to use Fitness Apps. The sample was 591 customers (378 women and 213 men) of 25 Boutique fitness centers. An online questionnaire was used for data collection. Data was analyzed with confirmatory factor analysis and structural equation model. Findings provide an insight into the importance of e-lifestyles in the intention of using fitness Apps and therefore in promoting physical activity through online fitness services. The results showed positive relationships between e-lifestyles, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness and attitude toward fitness Apps. Finally, the attitude toward fitness Apps offered a very high predictive value on use intention. This study provides a better understanding of consumer´s intention to use fitness Apps. The conclusions and recommendations for sports managers of fitness centers highlight the importance of e-lifestyles as a predecessor for the use of fitness Apps.

The fitness sector has always been linked to the analysis of the loyalty of its consumers. Different studies have shown the importance of sports service and human resources for greater customer loyalty. However, few works have studied how the physical environment or servicescape influences the behavior of consumers in fitness centers based on gender and age. Therefore, the objective of the study was to analyze the relationship between servicescape and the loyalty of fitness center consumers, analyzing through the Importance-Performance Matrix Analysis (IPMA) what the aspects to improve according to gender and age are. The sample was 10,368 fitness center customers (5864 women and 4504 men). After the IPMA, it was concluded that the main improvement margins in general in fitness centers were the equipment and the facility condition, and the facility layout. In turn, in relation to gender and age, the aspects with room for improvement were to a greater extent for equipment and facility condition in women over 21 years of age, and in facility layout for women between 21 and 40 years old and 51–60 years old. Regarding men, the aspects with the highest performance margins were the equipment and facility condition in all the age groups, the facility layout in men up to 50 years old, and the signage in men up to 40 years old and from 51 to 60 years old.

La participación de deportistas con diversidad funcional está aumentando en las carreras por montaña. La dificultad para acceder a los deportes en el medio natural de este colectivo y la necesidad de que tengan mayor atención, hace necesario aumentar el número de publicaciones sobre esta temática. En este caso, se analiza la práctica de actividades en medio natural del colectivo de personas que presentan diversidad funcional visual, así como las características de las carreras por montaña que practica este colectivo.

Resumo Actualmente las herramientas tecnológicas permiten un mayor conocimiento de los consumidores en las organizaciones deportivas. En concreto la geolocalización podría ayudar a los gestores a identificar cuál es el domicilio o lugar de trabajo de sus clientes. Por ello, el objetivo de este estudio fue conocer a qué distancia se encontraban los clientes de un centro de fitness y, analizar si existen o no diferencias significativas según género, edad y permanencia en relación a dicha distancia. La muestra la componen 1080 clientes (573 mujeres y 507 hombres) registrando datos de domicilio, género, edad, fecha de alta, y permanencia. Se utilizó el programa estadístico SPSS para realizar análisis descriptivo y de diferencias significativas. Entre los principales resultados, destaca que el género no es un factor relevante con respecto a la distancia. En relación a la edad, las personas mayores buscan la cercanía como principal requisito mientras los más jóvenes prefieren centrarse en otros aspectos. Finalmente en relación a la permanencia, no resultó un factor relevante sobre la distancia en ninguno de los tres grupos. Estos hallazgos indican la necesidad de que los gestores analicen la geolocalización de sus clientes con objeto de saber dónde están situados y poder establecer acciones concretas de marketing.

Since the first Olympic Games, the figure of the athlete has roused enormous passion. One may wonder if nowadays the cultural mechanisms that produce them are analogous and perform the same functions as in the past. This article aims to answer these questions. For this purpose, we have relied on the analysis of the discourse from different actors in the 2010 European Symposium of Sports “Thinking Sports, Transforming Society: The EU in favor of citizenship for the XXI Century”. The results will provide relevant information about the responsibility of the mass media in the production of a sports spectacle, the role of the big brands and the exemplarity of the sports’ elite. In this manner, the need was conveyed of producing a different view of sports, so that in the contest between humanistic values and materialistic values, those who contribute to the welfare of the citizens could achieve glory.
