description At present, despite the emphasis given to empirical studies on the benefits linked to the promotion of healthy lifestyle habits, there are shortcomings when it comes to relating levels of physical activity with the reasons for practicing, especially in the university context. The aim was to analyse the relationships between the motives for physical activity and the levels of sports practice of university students according to gender and areas of study. The sample consisted of 1.524 first-year university students from different degrees at the University of Extremadura (Spain). The instruments used were the Motives for Physical Activity Measure-Revised (MPAM-R) and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). The most significant findings reveal significant differences in different variables according to gender in favour of men in the enjoyment dimension, in the social dimension, in competence, in the intensity of activity and in the self-determination index (p < .001). There are also significant differences in the branches of knowledge, related to enjoyment, health and in the self-determination index with p < .001, but also in competence (p < .05). El objetivo fue analizar las relaciones entre los motivos de práctica de actividad física y los niveles de práctica deportiva de los estudiantes universitarios en función del género y las áreas de estudio. La muestra estuvo formada por 1.524 estudiantes universitarios de primer curso de diferentes titulaciones de la Universidad de Extremadura (España). Los instrumentos utilizados fueron el Motives for Physical Activity Measure-Revised (MPAM-R) y el International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Los hallazgos más significativos revelan diferencias significativas en distintas variables en función del género a favor de los hombres en la dimensión disfrute, en la dimensión social, en la competencia, en la intensidad de realización de la actividad y en el índice de autodeterminación (p < .001).
