The provided line chart demonstrates data on Europeans in different age groups who entered the gym at least once a month from 1990 to 2010.
Overall, the percentage of all people in different age groups who entered the gym at least once a month increased. Remarkably, the group between 18-24 witnessed the most significant change over the shown period.
In 1990, the age groups between 18-24 and 25-34 exhibited similar patterns with approximately 8%; both increased significantly from 1990 to 1994. Noticeably, in 1998, the proportion of the 18-24 age group started overcoming the 25-34 one. From 2002 onwards, this figure reached the highest position, increasing from 43% in 2002 to roughly 60% in the last year. While the age group from 25 to 34 slightly increased from 2002 to 2010, it held the second position throughout this period.
The percentage of the age group between 35 and 44 started at 4%, the same as the 45 and over age group. This figure increased slightly from 1994 to 2002. Subsequently, in 2006, its proportion started increasing sharply from 23% to 40% in 2010. Whereas the percentage of the 45 and over age group slightly increased from 1994 to 2002, it had a significant increased from 2006 to 2010, reaching 22%. This shows this figure did not have a tendency for gyming.
