Abstract: We examined how vigorous and moderate exercise, daily steps, sitting, perceived stress, and somatic symptoms contributed to 216 American college students’ exercise satisfaction.

Time 1 somatic symptoms were a significant unique predictor of changes in exercise satisfaction longitudinally.
