Full textAbstract:
Research suggests that individuals who have increased fitness knowledge via health education are more likely to be physically active and fit. In addition, an individual’s health literacy is suggested to play a substantial role towards the acquisition of health knowledge. However, literature delineating the relationship between health knowledge, health literacy, and the components of health-related physical fitness is scarce and inconsistent. The Canadian Physical Activity, Fitness and Lifestyle Approach (CPAFLA) represents a series of standardized fitness testing procedures developed by the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology. In addition, the CPAFLA provides important health-related information to individuals intended to promote healthy lifestyle activities. To-date, the influence of the CPAFLA on health-related physical fitness knowledge and the components of the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) regarding physical activity has yet to be examined. One large study examining two distinct sub-questions was conducted. The first question examined objectively the relationship between health-related physical fitness knowledge, health literacy, and health-related physical fitness in 34 participants (18 F, 16 M; 19-49 years). Knowledge was examined using the FitSmart, while health literacy and physical fitness were assessed via the Newest
Vital Sign and the CPAFLA, respectively. Results indicated that knowledge was a

From late of 2019, human is struggling with a new and mutated virus by the name of Covid-19. The speed of prevalence and death caused by it has been very high. It became a trigger to make this area the first and most important issue at this time. Since physical activity can improve immune system, the purpose of this study is the study of the correlation between the number of health/fitness club members and health/fitness numbers with Covid-19 prevalence and death. We assessed 31 European countries from 4 aspects including the number of members of health/fitness clubs, health/fitness club numbers, Covid-19 prevalence, and Covid-19 death. All of the numbers were evaluated per 1 million individuals. To examine the correlation, Person correlation and Linear Regression were used. The results of this study showed that, statistically, there is no relationship between the number of health/fitness club members and Covid-19 prevalence. Also, there is no relationship between the number of clubs and Covid-19 prevalence. However, there was a negative correlation between the number of health/fitness club members and health fitness club numbers with Covid-19 death. In conclusion, based on the results of this study, although physical activity cannot decrease Covid-19 prevalence dramatically, it can surely reduce the number of death caused by Covid-19.

Potentially, health clubs can be rejuvenating and pleasant places. Unfortunately, many clubs in Boston are merely monotonous rooms stuffed into any available space downtown. Or, they are overwhelming, disorienting facilities sprawled out in suburban locales accessible only by car. The proposed site locates a facility at a T-stop. The health experience can be made more varied yet comprehensive by increasing users' awareness of sensory experiences in their surroundings. Movements, actions are grouped into a section according to what the body senses while engaged in an activity. These associations or common denominators assign particular qualities and characteristics to each section and make them distinguishable and different from one another. These juxtaposed differences provide contrast and variety needed to increase sensory awareness and stimulate the human body and mind.

Full textAbstract:
In a series of studies, lifestyle activities, mental health and aerobic fitness were investigated in relation to mean RT and response time variability (trial-to-trial variability in RT performance) obtained from a battery of cognitive measures in 257 healthy adults aged 50 to 90 years (M = 63.60). Cognition was assessed across four domains; psychomotor performance, executive function, visual search and word recognition. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses and structural equation modelling (SEM) were used to explore associations between age and outcome measures in a mediated-moderator analysis. The dedifferentiation of cognition and the dissociation between the outcome measures of mean RT and response time variability was also explored. Additionally, the neural correlates of response time variability were investigated using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The findings indicated that poor mental health was associated with greater within-person (WP) variability and slower mean RTs and that this effect was greater in older adults. Higher lifestyle activity scores and higher aerobic fitness (VO2max) attenuated negative age gradients in WP variability and mean RT. Analyses suggested that the above effects were mediated by executive function. There was no evidence of dedifferentiation across cognitive domains and there was selective dissociation between the measures of mean RT and WP variability. The fMRI results suggested that WP variability was associated with fluctuations in executive control and, relatedly, attentional lapses. Overall, the findings suggest that executive function mediates a substantial portion of age-related variance in cognition and that this association is influenced by moderators such as an active lifestyle, aerobic fitness and mental health. The findings underline the potential benefits and importance of interventions to help maintain and promote mental health, and active lifestyles, in old age.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this thesis was to investigate the impacts of physical activity (PA), cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), body composition and lifestyle education on cardiometabolic (CM) risk in 10-11 year old children. This broad aim was approached using three studies. Studies 1 and 2 were cross sectional observational studies, and study 3 was a clustered randomised control trial, with intervention effects assessed at post intervention and again at 8 to 10 weeks after the intervention. Initially, in the first cross sectional study (Chapter 4) the relationships between non- invasive (LV Mass, E/A, E'/A', E/E', trunk fat mass, whole body fat mass) and invasive CM risk markers (CRP, HOMA-IR, adiponectin, TC: HDL-C), and between all risk markers and CRF (V02 peak), time spent sedentary, moderate to vigorous intensity PA (MVPA) and vigorous PA (VPA) were investigated in 10-11 year old children (n=62). The key findings were significant but generally weak relationships present between some of the non- invasive and invasive markers of CM risk and risk markers also had significant correlations with measures of CRF and PA. CRP was significantly positively correlated with whole body fat in boys (rho = 0.486, p < 0.05) and girls (rho = 0.485 , p < O.Ol) and with trunk fat mass in boys (rho = 0.384, p < 0.05) and girls (rho =0.489, p < O.Ol). Adiponectin was negatively correlated with whole body fat (rho = -0.446, p < 0.05, and R=-0.697, p < O.Ol) and trunk fat mass (rho = -0.614, p < O.Ol; rho = -0.475, p < O.Ol) in boys and girls respectively, and in girls adiponectin also correlated positively with E'/A' (r=0.356, p < 0.05). In boys only, TC:HDL-C was positively correlated with whole body fat (rho =0.407, p < 0.01) and trunk fat mass (rho =0.391, p < 0.05). ; V02Peakwas negatively correlated with CRPin boys (Rho = -0.492, p < 0.05) and HOMA-IR in girls (Rho =-0.522, p < 0.01). V02Peak was also negatively correlated with whole body fat (rho =-0.515, p < 0.01; r=-0.697, p < O.Ol) and trunk fat mass (rho=-0.494, p < 0.05; rho =-0.706, p < 0.01) in boys and girls respectively. Both MVPA and VPA correlated negatively with TC: HDL-C in girls (rho= -0.396, p < 0.05; rho =-0.428, p < 0.05) and MVPA correlated with whole body fat (rho= -0.602, p < O.Ol) and trunk fat mass (rho=-0.65, p < 0.01) in boys. VPA also correlated with whole body fat in girls (rho= - 0.544, p < O.Ol) and with trunk fat mass in both boys (rho= -0.428, p < 0.05) and girls (rho= - 0.468, p < 0.01). Time spent sedentary had a positive correlation with whole body fat in boys (rho = 0.429, p < 0.05). This study demonstrated that risk factors clustered in individuals and that relationships were present between invasive and non-invasive markers of cardiometabolic risk, and provided preliminary evidence to investigate this phenomenon further. The correlations described in this study suggest a clustered risk score which includes both invasive and non-invasive measures may add value to predicting overall risk. The second cross sectional study (Chapter 5) investigated clustered CM risk, by combining invasive markers with non-invasive 'pre-clinical' markers of CM risk into a clustered risk score, in a different cohort of 10 - 11 year old children. Clustered risk scores were negatively correlated with CRFand PA. V02 peakshowed a moderate negative correlation with CRSA (r=-0.57, p < 0.01) and CRS B (r= -0.60, p < O.Ol) VPA showed a moderate negative correlation with CRSA (r= -0.51, p= 0.01) and CRSB (r= -0.50, p=O.Ol). MVPA showed a moderate negative correlation with CRSA (r= -0.44, p= 0.03) and CRSB (r= -0.41, p=0.04). Sedentary time showed a moderate positive correlatcorrelation with CRSA (r= 0.414, p= 0.049). The evidence provided by these two observational studies, Study 1 (Chapter 4) and Study 2 (Chapter 5), along with other literature, as discussed throughout this thesis, gave rationale for an intervention with the aim to reduce negative lifestyle behaviours, of low levels of PA, high levels of sedentary behaviour and poor nutritional balance, increase CRF and maintain a healthy body weight.

Chronic diseases pose public health concerns globally with an increasing trend in developing countries. The development of interventions to minimize or prevent the burden associated with chronic diseases has therefore become a necessity. In 2002 the School of Public Health of the University of the Western Cape developed a health club intervention in Khayelitsha. This intervention focused on promoting healthy lifestyles, particularly improved diet and physical activity. The objectives of this study was to determine whether members were more physically active than non-members and to determine whether members made healthier dietary choices than non-members.

Full textAbstract:
The study of critical service incidents has been extensively investigated in service marketing, however, very little attention has been paid to the role that these incidents have in the building, development and maintenance of marketing relationships. This thesis sought to address the deficiency in knowledge on the subject by exploring the critical service incident from a relational exchange perspective, with the members and management of a health and fitness club providing the central focus of the buyer-seller relationship. This investigation adopted a pragmatic philosophy in methodological design, arguing that the research had to be conducted within real time business constraints. Action research was used as an umbrella strategy for this investigation which incorporated a multi-method research design that consisted of; participant observation, in-depth interviews, a management group discussion and a telephone survey to investigate the questions of each research cycle. Whilst existing service marketing literature implies that positive and negative critical service incidents result in the bi-polar outcomes of buyer loyalty or switching respectively, the findings of this research demonstrated that the critical service incident may not be that critical to the development and maintenance of the relationship. The thesis makes an original contribution to knowledge by developing existing relationship marketing theory and making explicit the influence of the critical service incident on the buyer-seller relationship that is implied in service marketing literature. This thesis proposes that the critical service incident, produces buyer inferences, effects and consequences that result in a tendency toward loyalty or switching and that when the duration of the buyer-seller relationship is considered, these evaluative buyer judgements produce a phenomenon termed 'relationship elasticity'.

Associated with physical inactivity and obesity are numerous other health risks which have become a major health concern. A steady decrease in the levels of physical activity during childhood and adolescents have been noted in various parts of the world. The picture of low physical activity levels in developed countries is no different in developing countries. Children spend the majority of their day at school therefore a school setting is ideal to conduct physical activity intervention studies The primary aim of this study was to measure the effect of an intervention programme on the physical activity participation levels among school going children and adolescents. The study was carried out at an urban independent Catholic school. The sample, which was conveniently selected, which included 100 learners from grade 5 to 7 with parental consent. A quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design was used in this study. Baseline data included levels of physical activity participation, Body Mass Index (BMI), hip-waist ratio, and socio-demographic variables. Physical activity was assessed with the Modifiable Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents. The Promoting Lifestyle activity for Youth (PLAY) programme was implemented at the school. This process-oriented programme shifts the focus from fitness toward regular participation in daily physical activity, and it is not intended to replace a comprehensive physical education programme.

Full textAbstract:
Health and fitness are two controversial and not easily defined topics that affect people in our modern society every day. We believe that we can find a link between individualism, globalization and the stress concerning weight and appearance ideals. Our bodies have turned into a popular subject for the media, and there is no indication that the interest will decline. As the world gets more artificial, "natural" ideals are getting more attention, such as the concept of a strong and healthy body. But there is also a downside, for example with health issues such as cardiovascular disease increasing following the birth of high-fat diets. The potential risks with these ideals and diets may be great and even be counterproductive. In this essay, we seek out to learn how newspaper and periodicals Aftonbladet, Tara and Iform defines the concept of health and in which way it is described. Our results indicate that health to a large extent is described in terms of sickness and disease, rather than ideals. The results contradicts our hypothesis and we discuss why this might be the case.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The prevalence of overweight and obesity among adolescents has increased worldwide at the population-level, reflecting inactive lifestyle and excessive energy intake. The comorbidities of obesity, e.g. impaired glucose tolerance and high blood pressure increase the risk for cardiovascular diseases. The first manifestation of cardiovascular diseases can be detected in young adulthood, and prevention should be focused to those at highest risk. This study was aimed to evaluate the changes in body weight and body composition, physical fitness and cardiometabolic risk factors, associated with physical exercise during military service. Furthermore, this study investigated the association of antenatal and lifestyle factors with the body composition and physical fitness among young men. The material of this study consisted of 1046 men (mean age 19.2 years) who began their compulsory military service in the Sodankylä Jaeger Brigade in 2005. The conscripts’ cardiometabolic risk factors, body weight, body composition, fitness, and lifestyle habits were evaluated at baseline and after 6–12 months military service. The data on the participants’ mothers’ antenatal and participants’ childhood period was available for 508 offsprings, who belonged to the 1986 Northern Finland Birth Cohort. During the military service the prevalence of metabolic syndrome decreased in the overall cohort from 6.1% to 3.6%, and the reduction was present among overweight and obese conscripts. The reduction in metabolic syndrome was associated with the reduction in waist circumference, weight loss and improvement in muscle fitness. Some lifestyle factors e.g. maternal smoking during pregnancy and conscripts’ smoking, alcohol consumption and binge drinking were associated with the conscripts’ body composition and fitness test results. Military service was especially beneficial for those reporting weekly binge drinking, who showed the greatest reduction in body weight and fat, and improvements in physical fitness and lifestyle habits. This study shows that unbeneficial lifestyle habits can be seen as detrimental to the body composition and fitness levels of young men. Furthermore, the physical exercise is in important role for reducing the metabolic syndrome, already present in young men. Maternal smoking during pregnancy was associated with reduced aerobic fitness in the subjects, underlining its long-standing consequences on offspring’s healthTiivistelmä Väestötutkimusten perusteella nuorten ylipaino ja lihavuus ovat yleistyneet, liittyen inaktiiviseen elämäntapaan ja liialliseen energiansaantiin. Lihavuuden liitännäissairaudet, kuten heikentynyt sokerinsieto ja kohonnut verenpaine lisäävät riskiä sydän- ja verisuonisairauksille. Sydän- ja verisuonisairauksien ensimmäiset ilmentymät voidaan havaita nuorella aikuisiällä ja sairauden ehkäisystrategiat tulisi kohdentaa riskiryhmiin. Tässä tutkimuksessa arvioitiin varusmiespalvelukseen liittyvän liikunnan aikaansaamia muutoksia kehonpainossa, kehonkoostumuksessa, fyysisessä kunnossa sekä sydän- ja verisuonisairauksien riskitekijöissä. Lisäksi tutkimus arvioi äidin raskausaikaan liittyvien tekijöiden ja elintapojen yhteyttä nuorten miesten kehonkoostumukseen ja fyysiseen kuntoon. Tutkimusaineisto koostui 1046 miehestä (keski-ikä 19.2 vuotta), jotka astuivat varusmiespalvelukseen Sodankylän Jääkäriprikaatissa vuonna 2005. Varusmiesten sydän- ja verisuonisairauksien riskitekijät, kehonpaino, kehonkoostumus, kunto ja elintavat arvioitiin palveluksen alussa ja lopussa (seuranta-aika 6–12 kk). Varusmiesten äitien raskaudenaikaiset ja varusmiesten varhaislapsuuden tiedot olivat käytettävissä 508:lta tutkittavalta, jotka kuuluivat Pohjois-Suomen syntymäkohorttiin 1986. Varusmiespalveluksen aikana metabolisen oireyhtymän vallitsevuus väheni koko aineistossa 6.1 %:sta 3.6 %:iin, ja väheneminen oli havaittavissa ylipainoisten ja lihavien joukossa. Metabolisen oireyhtymän väheneminen oli yhteydessä vyötärönympäryksen ja painon laskuun sekä lihaskunnon paranemiseen. Elintavat, kuten äidin raskaudenaikainen tupakointi ja varusmiehen ruokavalio, tupakointi, alkoholin kulutus ja humalahakuinen juominen olivat yhteydessä varusmiehen kehonkoostumukseen ja fyysiseen kuntoon. Varusmiespalveluksesta hyötyivät erityisesti ne, jotka raportoivat viikoittaista humalahakuista juomista; heillä havaittiin myönteisiä muutoksia kehonkoostumuksessa, fyysisessä kunnossa ja elintavoissa. Tämän tutkimuksen perusteella voidaan myös todeta, että äidin raskaudenaikainen tupakointi vaikuttaa jälkeläisen heikompaan aerobiseen kuntoon. Tutkimus osoittaa epäterveellisten elämäntapojen vaikutukset epäedulliseen kehonkoostumukseen ja heikompaan fyysiseen kuntoon nuorilla miehillä. Lisäksi liikunnan merkitys nuorten miesten sydän- ja verisuonisairauksien riskitekjöiden hoidossa on oleellista

Det är därför intressant att förstå hur sådan träning bör utformas för att ge störst förbättring på fysisk förmåga. Här undersöker vi hur musikgympa förbättrar fysisk förmåga hos otränade personer, och i vilken mån denna förbättring korrelerar med ett antal psykologiska faktorer relaterade till den fysiska aktiviteten. 110 personer genomförde ett testbatteri som omfattade kondition, styrka, och flexibilitet före och efter elva veckors gruppgympa två gånger i veckan. De psykologiska faktorerna omfattade deras upplevelser av ansträngning, flow, smärta, välbefinnande under träningspassen och deras uppfattning om instruktörerna. Deltagarnas fysiska förmåga förbättrades, men förbättringen var endast svagt och icke statistiskt signifikant korrelerad med de psykologiska faktorerna.Physical inactivity is a growing problem from a public health point of view. The World Health Organization recommends at least 3 hours of moderate-intensity aerobic physical activity weekly to increase health benefits and physical fitness. Group workouts where you move to music are a popular form of exercise, especially for less active people or those who start exercising after previously being inactive. Therefore, it is interesting to understand how such training should be designed to give the greatest effect on physical fitness. In this study we examine how music exercise improves physical fitness in sedentary people, and to what extent this improvement correlates with a number of psychological factors related to physical activity. 110 people completed a test battery that tested fitness, strength, and flexibility before and after eleven weeks of group exercise twice a week. The psychological factors were their experienced exertion, flow, pain, well- being during the workouts, as well as their perception of the instructors. Physical fitness increased, but the increase was only weakly- and non-significantly correlated with the psychological factors.

Mini-study project (MBA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2002.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The rise of the health and fitness club, Health and Racquet Club, in the late eighties was spectacular and it came as no surprise that the company was listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange in 1994. The two founder members, Peter Gardener and Robert Mitchell listed a company within a short period of time and were not afraid to change their strategy and expand their operations into other sectors of the leisure industry in 1995. In the late nineties, after restructuring the subsidiaries of the group, management started to look at foreign markets for expansion of the core business, namely the Health and Racquet Clubs. The group's foreign expansion accumulated a vast amount of debt on its balance sheet and in retrospect was seen as one of the main reasons for its collapse. The company was placed under liquidation in the end of the 2000 financial year. This study will evaluate the different strategies management followed, and will identify some key strategic mistakes that was made and that led to the downfall of a seemingly financially strong organization that offered above average returns to it's stakeholders. It also aims to show that a business strategy has to rely on strong corporate governance and that the last say always lies with the stakeholders within that company.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die gesondheids- en fiksheidsklub, die Health and Racquet Club, het in die laat tagtigerjare ongelooflike opgang gemaak, wat uiteindelik gelei het tot notering op die Johannesburgse Effektebeurs in 1994. Die twee stigterslede, Peter Gardener en Robert Mitchell, het die maatskappy binne 'n kort tyd genoteer, en het nie gehuiwer om hulle strategie te verander en in 1995 hulle bedrywighede uit te brei na ander sektore in die ontspanningsindustrie nie. In die laat negentigerjare, nadat die filiale van die groep geherstruktureer is, het die bestuur oorsese markte begin ondersoek met die oog op uitbreiding van die kernbesigheid, naamlik die Health and Racquet Clubs. Die groep se uitbreidingsaksie het groot skuld tot gevolg gehad - een van die hoofredes vir die ineenstorting. Die maatskappy is aan die einde van die 2000 finansiële jaar gelikwideer. Hierdie studie evalueer die verskillende strategieë wat die bestuur gevolg het, en identifiseer die belangrikste strategiese foute wat gemaak is en wat gelei het tot die ineenstorting van 'n maatskappy wat oënskynlik finansieel sterk was en bogemiddelde opbrengste aan die aandeelhouers besorg het. Die studie poog ook om aan te toon dat 'n besigheidstrategie gebaseer moet wees op stewige korporatiewe beheer en dat die laaste sê altyd by die aandeelhouers van die maatskappy lê.

As a result of urbanization and the development of technology, citizens feel the pressure of working or life. In order to relieve stress and be health, they are attracted to .healthy clubs. Customer relationship management is importance in healthy clubs result from member system. Therefore, healthy clubs focus on the quality of equipments and service to satisfy consumers and benefit earning. There are two subjects in marketing of organizations: first, how to maintain the relationship with consumers. Second , how to attract new consumers. According to The One to One Future：Building Relationships with One Customer at A Time written by Don Peppers and Martha Rogers indicates that to find a new consumer is five times of cost of maintaining consumers. In addition, most organizations lose 25% of consumers every year. However, if firms lessen 5% of defection rate, the earning will raise 100%. In recent years, the marketing based on database may be developed due to neural network. Hence, this study attempts to examine the kinds of consumers. This study uses case study and select Gold’s Gym Health & Fitness Club as an example result form the close relationship between sport industry and consumers. The examinations of the kinds of consumers, amount of consumption, and how long they participate in the club prediction model by using discriminant analysis, neural network analysis to fine anticipative variables. Further analysis compares the differentiation rate of the three examinations to fine the variables with high differentiation rate. The results will contribute to Gold’s Gym Health & Fitness Club and provide the kinds and lifetime value of consumers.

Because of the economic development and living standard enhancement, the Taiwanese people’s life expectancy has increased. With that comes the concern for good health during the longer life. Health fitness clubs generally provide people a climate controlled facility with a variety of equipment and the availability of professional or trained personnel to facilitate safe use of facilities offered. In USA membership in health clubs increased 51% in the decade of the 1990s. In Taiwan membership in health fitness clubs is also growing. The respondents’ demographic background, decision-making, recognition, marketing preferences and willingness to participation in the health fitness clubs will be included in the survey and their relationship will also be analyzed. This study surveyed 346 respondents. The results show that respondents of different demographic background have different decision-making, recognition, marketing preferences and willingness to participation in the health fitness clubs. Moreover, the respondents’ decision-making, recognition, marketing preferences cause their willingness to participation in the health fitness clubs. The findings of this research are to be presented to people in the health fitness club business and to government agencies concerned with health, fitness and small business development.

The Study of Taiwan Health & Fitness Club Industry Abstract The purpose of this study is to investigate the current status of the Taiwan Fitness Club industry. One hundred and twelve health & fitness clubs in five different categories were selected in Taiwan. A Questionnaire was designed and sent to the 112 club managers. 6 were invalid after verifying by phone calls. Data collection was implemented through interviews and questionnaires. The valid returns were 61 (63.54 %). A test of descriptive statistics was used for data analysis. There were seven major parts of the questions including membership data, club facilities, programs and activities, operation hours, membership fee structures, personnel and marketing strategies. Majority of the Taiwan heath & fitness clubs is located in the northern region with the membership size of 500-2000, singles club, and established after 1981. The results show that: 1. Different category of club shows no differences in facilities, cardiovascular, weight and tested equipment. The equipment is diversifying, but the numbers of equipment are low. Different category of club shows no difference in programs and activities. 2. Different category of club shows no difference in the weekday and weekend operation hour, peak hours and non--peak hours operation. Different category of club shows large difference in part time, full time staff, and aerobic instructors employed, but no difference in other staff. Sales staff employed in multi-purposed clubs is more than other category clubs is. There are great differences in entry fees and deposit. Not much difference on the monthly fee. 3. There are no differences in the use of marketing strategies from different category of clubs. The top three marketing strategies are club brochure, magazine advertisement, and direct mailing. The findings may provide the government with useful guiding principles on establishing health & fitness management regulations, certifications and the design of program and curriculum modification. Key words: health & fitness, club, industry

Customer acquisition models have received more and more attention as the competition between companies has come to a total conflicting stage. Better marketing campaign and resource allocation can be obtained if appropriate customer acquisition models can be built. The purpose of this research is to use four commonly used data mining techniques including linear discriminant analysis, backpropagation neural networks (BPN), multivariate adaptive regression splines (MARS), and support vector machine (SVM) in building the customer acquisition model with the 5-fold cross validation approach. In order to verify the feasibility of the proposed approach, 306 datasets of one health and fitness club is used in this study. Empirical results indicate that BPN provides the best classification capability in terms of the minimum expected misclassification cost criterion. Better business strategies can be designed and implemented with the obtained results.

As era of the cheap energy has become history and the consumption of natural resource keeps growing, it would be wise to conduct more actions to achieve the goal of environment protection of saving energy and reduce the carbon dioxide. People are more willing to paying higher to maintain good physical condition along with the growth of living standards. However the free time and space for people living a modern city is very limited so going to the health club (fitness gym) is a good substituted option. If gyms can take good advantage of the popular issue of environment protection of saving energy and reduce the carbon dioxide, and broadly adopt fitness equipment that generates electricity, there could be more clients who have a favor for this major trend.

It is very important to discover profitable customers for various companies. Some literatures believe that companies can retain customers for a longer period then the company would benefit from them, especially in contractual industry. But other articles didn’t agree that, they tested and verified that the relationship between customer duration and customer profitability are not highly correlated of some uncontractual companies. Based on this dilemma in the literature, the purpose of this research is trying to verify the relationship between customer duration and customer profitability of a health and fitness club-a contractual company in Taiwan. As the relationship is not obvious, we further try to classify the customers into four segments using various classification techniques with respect to the customer’s duration and profitability. In order to verify the feasibility and appropriateness of the proposed scheme, classification tasks are performed using the dataset provided by that health and fitness club. Empirical result demonstrated that the two-stage modeling procedure in integrating multivariate adaptive regression splines and artificial neural network analysis has the highest classification capability with more than 90% classification accuracy. Successful market strategies can then be properly implemented to better serve the customers that are more profitable to the company.

Studying the customer value was not only to examine the attributes of the product or service and results and objectives after using, but also further to explore the real needs and wants of the customers. Hence, the aim of this project was to go through the theory of Customer Value Hierarchy Model by Woodruff & Gardial（1996）, and the theory of Customer Value Inspection by Parasurman（1997）as the framework to examine the different types of members’ customer value among the consumption attribute, the consumption consequence and the consumption goal. Moreover, the questionnaires were adopted from memberships of Alexander Health and Fitness club. With a facilitated sampling technique, 300 target audiences were selected for this study at 86.3﹪valid rate (259 out of 300). The member joined club below one year is「first-time customer」; one to two years is 「short-term customer」; over two years is 「long-term customer」; and had left club is 「lost customer」. In addition, by means of Description Statistics, One-Way ANOVA analysis and Pearson Correlation analysis, the results was indicated that: 1. The different types of members had significant differences in customer value. About「consumption attribute」, the different types of members had significant differences in total image（F＝9.44 , p＜0.05）, sport equipment（F＝4.06 , p＜0.05）, and social contact（F＝4.98 , p＜0.05）. About 「consumption consequence」, the different types of members had significant differences in total image（F＝6.18 , p＜0.05）and healthy （F＝3.50 , p＜0.05）. About 「consumption goal」, the different types of members had significant differences in self realization（F＝5.39 , p＜0.05）. 2. The consumption attribute and the consumption consequence had positive correlation（r＝0.13 , p＜0.05）; the consumption consequence and the consumption goal had positive correlation（r＝0.72 , p＜0.05）; and the consumption attribute and the consumption goal had positive correlation（r＝0.16 , p＜0.05）.
