Objectives and research hypothesis Physical inactivity is a major health concern that has been linked to a variety of chronic diseases, including obesity, diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, and mental disorders. Recent studies have shown that regular physical activity can decrease the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection, and severe COVID-19 illnesses, as well as improve antibody response to vaccine. As such, the adoption of a physically active lifestyle carries potential health benefits and has even been referred to as a "miracle cure" by the Academy of Royal Medical Colleges. Despite the implementation of policies that aimed to encourage regular physical activity, the prevalence of insufficient physical activity in high-income countries has increased since 2001 (32% in 2001 vs. 37% in 2018). Given the limited impact of health policies on physical activity engagement, it is essential to explore other avenues of research that can contribute to understanding this high level of inactivity and driving innovative strategies for encouraging physical activity. In this context, the automatic attraction of individuals toward activities associated with low-effort exertion is thought to play a key role in physical inactivity. Physical activity involves exerting physical effort, i.e., intensifying physical energy to achieve certain goals, such as increasing the force to lift a heavy object. This physical intensification is associated with the phenomenological experience of energy exerti…
