A new accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy has shown that physical activity and exercise are 'contagious' accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy of social media. Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) discovered that people who post accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy of their exercise patterns and achievements on social media sites motivate and encourage accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy people to be more active. Researchers tracked the exercise accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy of 1.1 million runners over a accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy of five years. They looked at the geographic accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy of the runners, their social network use, distance, time, pace and the accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy they burned. The researchers concluded that sharing personal exercise accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy via social media can inspire others to exercise more, exercise harder and do so more accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy.

The accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy 'Nature Communications' has published the research. The study includes detailed accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy of how inspiring it can be to read about a friend's physical activity. Researchers said: "On accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy, an additional kilometre run by friends can inspire someone to run an accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy three-tenths of a kilometre, and an additional ten minutes run by friends can inspire accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy to run three minutes accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy." The study said social media improved the accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy of runners who had been a little slower or less in accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy, and of those who were showing signs of overtaking a friend's performance. Researcher Sinan Aral said: "In accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy, if you run more, it is likely that you can cause your friends to run accountsadditionalaveragebecausecaloriescompetitivelydatadetailsgeneraljournallocationlongermoreotherperformanceperiodroutinesshapesomeonestudy."
