Introduction: Overweight is a multifaceted challenge affecting physical, psychological, and social dimensions. This study aimed to explore the lived experiences of individuals with overweight in resistance training and to develop a theoretical model for weight management through this modality.
Methods: A qualitative approach using Systematic Grounded Theory (Strauss & Corbin version) was employed. Data were collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews with 16 overweight individuals experienced in resistance training. Data analysis followed the three stages of open, axial, and selective coding.
Results: The core phenomenon identified was "Health-Oriented Identity Reconstruction through Physical-Psychological Empowerment." Findings revealed that body dissatisfaction and previous intervention failures (causal conditions), within a supportive and non-judgmental environment (contextual conditions), and influenced by coach support and neurobiological rewards (intervening factors), lead to strategies such as focusing on strength over weight and exercise self-regulation.
Conclusion: The final consequence of this process is the promotion of multidimensional health and a shift in subjectivity from a passive individual to an empowered agent. Resistance training functions as an "identity-reconstructing intervention," ensuring the sustainability of health behaviors by satisfying the need for competence.
