B Unstandardized beta coefficient; Std. E Standard error; ß Standardized beta coefficients; R² R square change; BAS-2 Body appreciation scale-2; CNS Connectedness with nature scale; SCS Self-compassion scale, short-form. Fitness center = frequency in which fitness center is used to be physically active. Nature = frequency in which the nature is used to be physically active. *Correlations are set as statistically significant at a p-value of ≤ 0.05. Statistically significant p values are presented in bold
