<![CDATA[Adolescent physical inactivity is a major public-health concern, but barriers to participation may differ across school and home contexts. This study descriptively mapped students' perceived barriers to school sports extracurricular participation and home-based physical activity at SMA Negeri 1 Pagelaran, Cianjur Regency, Indonesia. A descriptive quantitative survey included 109 tenth-grade students selected from a population of 150 by simple random sampling. Responses to a four-point Likert questionnaire were summarized using item-level percentages; the analysis was descriptive and did not test causal relationships. In the school context, 55.96% of students reported low confidence in their physical ability and 55.96% reported tiring quickly during vigorous activity, while 77.07% considered school sports facilities adequate and 66.05% reported no schedule conflict. At home, 66.06% did not report full parental support, 51.38% reported inadequate nearby exercise space, and 49.54% perceived their neighbourhood as unsafe or lacking open space. Separately, 85.32% recognized obesity risk associated with inactivity, whereas 85.32% disagreed that exercise was meaningful in daily life; these were aggregate item patterns and were not cross-tabulated. Although 42.20% reported spending much free time on gadgets or social media, 73.40% did not rate digital activities as more appealing than exercise. The findings provide context-specific evidence on perceived individual, family, and environmental barriers and support further school-family assessment and multi-site research.]]>
