Abstract
To evaluate the consumption of junk food and self-control among gymnastic athletes and non-athletes was the core objective of this study. The study comprised of 120 participants whose age spanned from 19 to 25 years (M = 20.97, SD = 2.14). The independent t-test, simple linear regression test and descriptive test were used to analyze the data through SPSS version 22. The findings demonstrated significantly higher attitude of non-athletes towards junk food consumption in comparison to their gymnastic athlete counterparts. Moreover, gymnastic athletes showed greater levels of self-control than non-athletes. Furthermore, irrespective of their sports participation, the analysis also depicted an inverse relationship between self-control and junk food consumption. We can suggest that engagement in gymnastics holds the potential to diminish youths’ inclination towards junk food consumption and improvement in the trait of self-control. Hence, policy makers should prioritize the promotion of gymnastic sport to improve their overall well-being.
