According to Lovely Joy Gonzales Romel Impuesto, Jay G. Tagimbis, Pepito O Mosquito
(2021), The coping mechanism among Fitness gym-goers was based on descriptive data on
resilience and coping with stressful life experiences. This study was conducted to determine the
coping mechanisms among fitness gym-goers in Buenavista and Nasipit Agusan del Norte
municipalities. Based on the result, most of the gym-goers aged sixteen to twenty-five years old.
It was revealed in the study, and respondents implemented the nine coping mechanisms as to
cognitive reappraisal, social support, problem-solving, Religiosity, tolerance, emotional release,
Over activity, Relaxation, and substance used. Most fitness gym-goers used this coping
mechanism as a stress reliever and increased overall health of sense of well-being. But all of
these focuses on the emotional, physical, and mental aspects of the person affected by life
stressors from the environment. This study aided scholars in finding out possible strengths and
getting insights into the fitness gym behavioral tendencies and coping behavior. It was
recommended that the fitness gym-goers of Buenavista and Nasipit Agusan del Norte
municipalities continue using the nine coping mechanisms to understand better the importance of
coping with stress and improving the overall quality of life.
According to Mark Anthony P. Canious (2006) The phrase “care of the self” can be
accomplished in different ways. One can go to the gym in order to stay physically fit or have a
regular routine of exercise like jogging, hiking, or any other sports. Another way one can take
care of the self is through having that positive outlook and disposition in life in the face of
adversities and trials. One can also take care of the self by taking in healthy supplements and
healthy diet for the well being of the body and thus, for the self. Hence, the ways of taking care
of the self are so varied.
The list can go on and on. Yet the phrase “care of the self” as Michel Foucault has examined
means something more aside from staying physically, mentally or emotionally fit. The origin of
the principle of the “care of the self” dates back a long way to early civilization.
