En los últimos años, las aplicaciones móviles de fitness han surgido como herramientas accesibles que apoyan la actividad física y el cambio de comportamiento hacia la salud. Este estudio tuvo como objetivo determinar la relación entre la exposición a aplicaciones móviles de fitness físico y la motivación de los estudiantes-atletas para mantener un estilo de vida saludable. Se empleó un diseño de investigación descriptivo-correlacional, con la participación de 86 estudiantes-atletas de la Universidad Estatal de Batangas, La Universidad Nacional de Ingeniería, Campus JPLPC-Malvar, durante el año académico 2024–2025. Los datos fueron recolectados mediante un cuestionario validado que evaluaba tanto el uso de las aplicaciones como la motivación (intrínseca y extrínseca), complementado con observaciones de condición física. Se utilizaron estadísticas descriptivas y el coeficiente de correlación de Pearson para analizar los datos. Los resultados mostraron que los participantes estaban moderadamente expuestos a aplicaciones móviles de fitness (M = 3.10) y presentaban altos niveles de motivación intrínseca (M = 3.81) y motivación extrínseca moderada (M = 3.38). Se encontró una relación positiva, estadísticamente significativa y fuerte (r = 0.614, p = 0.000) entre la exposición a las aplicaciones y la motivación. Los hallazgos sugieren que un mayor uso de las aplicaciones de fitness contribuye a una mayor motivación para adoptar y mantener un estilo de vida saludable. El estudio resalta el valor de integrar la tecnología móvil de fitness en los programas de entrenamiento atlético y bienestar para reforzar la motivación y los comportamientos saludables entre los estudiantes-atletas.
