Formålet med indeværende casestudie er at undersøge mulighederne og begrænsningerne ift. motivationen for deltagelse i en ny implementeret motionsordning hos Institut for Byggeri og Anlæg ved Aalborg Universitet. På baggrund af organisationskultur, de ansattes opfattelse af sundhed og motivationsteori i form af Self-Determination Theory og Health Belief Theory er det forsøgt at afdække de faktorer der spiller ind ift. hvorfor ordningen benyttes eller ej. High-intensity Interval Training blev anvendt i motionsordningen, da denne komplementerer den mest brugt årsag til ikke at være fysisk aktiv – mangel på tid. HIT tager 10 min at udføre, og dette udføres tre gange ugentligt. HIT er videnskabeligt bevist at kunne medføre sundhedseffekter, så som at kunne forebygge type2 diabets, hjertekar-sygdomme og forbedre den aerobe kapacitet. Alle 156 ansatte på instituttet blev til-budt at deltage i motionsordningen, hvoraf 30% valgte at benytte motionsordningen mindste en gang under den fire ugers interventionsperiode. Motionsordningen har haft et både mulighedsskabende og begrænsende potentiale på de ansattes motivation til at dyrke mere motion, men og på trods af mange mulighedsskabende tendenser, viste det sig at motionsordning ikke blev benyttet i særlig høj grad.

The aim of this case study is to investigate the possibilities and limitations in relation to motivation in participation in a new workplace exercise program implemented at the Department of Civil Engi-neering at Aalborg University. On the theoretical basis of organizational culture, employee percep-tions of health and the motivation theories Self-Determination Theory and Health Belief Theory it’s attempted to identify the factors that determines whether the workplace exercise program is used or not. Exercise High-intensity Interval Training was implemented in the workplace exercise program, as this seems like an ideal way to break down the most common barrier in not being physically ac-tive - the lack of time. It only takes 10 minutes to perform a single set of HIT, and this is only has to be performed three times a week. HIT has been scientifically proven to cause beneficial health ef-fects as helping to prevent Type-2 diabetes, a number of cardiovascular diseases and to help improve the aerobic capacity. All 156 employees at the institute were invited to participate in the exercise regime, of which 30% chose to use workplace exercise program at least once during the four-week intervention period. The workplace exercise program has had a both enabling and constraining potential on the employees' motivation to exercise more, but in spite of many enabling trends, it turned out that workplace exercise program was not used to a great extent.
