Previous research found that people who participate in physical activity (PA) are less likely to get screened due perception of having low risk. However, health organizations have lowered the age to initiate screening as more cases are being reported among younger U.S. residents.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"j_jom-2025-0094_abs_001\">\n                    <jats:title>Objectives<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study aimed to examine the association between colon cancer screening and self-reported health status for individuals meeting aerobic PA guidelines among individuals aged 45\u201354.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"j_jom-2025-0094_abs_003\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of the 2023 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data. We included all participants between the ages of 45 and 54 who responded to the questionnaire regarding colonoscopy and sigmoidoscopy examinations, and the supplementary module that features PA and sedentary behaviors.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"j_jom-2025-0094_abs_004\">\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Among 1118 respondents, 503 (45.5\u202f%) reported having undergone colon cancer screening via colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy, whereas 615 (54.5\u202f%) had not. Screening prevalence differed by insurance status (p=0.002), with higher rates among insured individuals (483\/1034; 47.2\u202f%) compared with uninsured individuals (11\/65; 19.2\u202f%). Screening also varied by race\/ethnicity (p=0.022); rates were highest among White respondents (353\/732; 49.9\u202f%) and lowest among Asian respondents (16\/60; 27.3\u202f%). Screening did not significantly differ by education, sex, overweight\/obesity status, transportation access, place of residence, or PA status (all p&gt;0.05). Among respondents meeting aerobic PA guidelines (n=1048), 489 (47.0\u202f%) reported screening. Neither cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]=1.22, 95\u202f% confidence interval [CI]: 0.87\u20131.70) nor self-reported good health (AOR=0.89, 95\u202f% CI: 0.52\u20131.51) was associated with screening. Among those meeting both aerobic and strength training guidelines (n=541), 255 (48.8\u202f%) reported screening. In this group, reporting good or better health was associated with lower odds of screening (AOR=0.37, 95\u202f% CI: 0.15\u20130.90), while CVD risk remained nonsignificant (AOR=1.33, 95\u202f% CI: 0.80\u20132.23).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"j_jom-2025-0094_abs_005\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our analysis found no link between colon cancer screening and self-reported health status for those meeting aerobic guidelines, but those who met both aerobic and strength training guidelines were less likely to get screened.
