We examined the effect on motivation of with or without a choice of exercise environment over a continuous task of exercising four times a week for two weeks. We found that the continuous choice is beneficial for maintaining higher intrinsic motivation than the no-choice. The results suggested that continuous choice facilitates the improvement of exercise habits.
