“…Most users consider their PA level active or very active (Del Campo et al, 2016;Mathias, Filho, Szkudlarek, Gallo, Fermino & Silveira Gomes, 2018;Mora,2012), regardless of the use of the OGs.…”

“…According to the different studies, using OGs represents only a supplementary activity and most people use OGs to supplement main activities and are active when they commute to the OGs (Chow, 2013(Chow, , 2017Ibiapina et al, 2017;Iepsen & Silva, 2015;Mathias et al, 2018;Mora, 2012;Mora et al,2017;Nałęcz et al, 2018;Pinheiro & Coelho Filho, 2017;Salin, Virtuoso, Noronha Nepomuceno, Weiers & Mazo, 2014;Silva, Fermino, Alberico & Reis, 2016Souza, Fermino, Rodriguez-Añez. & Reis, ,2014).…”

The outdoor gyms have risen exponentially during the last years as a way of revitalizing public areas to enhance the practice of physical activity by insufficiently active older people. However, little is known about their use patterns that might help to maximize its benefits. To know the outdoor gyms profile, an exhaustive scientific literature review was made on research databases (WOS, Scopus, SportDiscus, CINAHL, Cochrane Library Plus, PubMed, Proquest Dissertations and Theses, and Google Scholar). Only 24 studies met the selection criteria of the 17,035 gathered. In general, outdoor gyms were used 3-5 days per week. They are 10-20 min away from users' home and distance was between 500 and 2007 m. Most activities on outdoor gyms were a supplement of other main PA. More rigorous study designs (intervention programs) are needed. It is necessary to operate in a community setting with local government. Current studies have indicated the existence of potential safety risks due to inappropriate usage behaviours. The most demanded improvements were more instructors, benches, variety devices, small roofs over the equipment, toilets, maintenance, lighting the area, security city guards, better promotion and placing information signs. The average number of devices per outdoor gym was 4,6. The dimensions were between 100-200 m 2 .

“…The human aging process involves physiological changes that cause a decline in physical capacities, which can result in a reduction in the overall functionality of older adults 1,2 . To ensure active and healthy population aging, public policies aimed at the practice of physical exercises have been implemented in Brazil [3][4][5] .…”

Objective: the present study aimed to construct, validate and verify the reliability of a protocol for assessing the cardiorespiratory capacity of older adults attending the Rio ao Ar Livre (Open Air Rio, or RAL) project entitled the “Outdoor Circuit Test” (OCT). Method: validity and reliability tests were carried out to assess the accuracy of the OCT, with 50 older adults (70.6 ± 6.3 years) of both sexes who regularly attended the RAL. Validity was tested by collecting VO2max data under maximal cardiopulmonary exercise test conditions, and the OCT variables: a) Circuit Execution Time; b) Heart Rate; c) Subjective Perception of Exertion; d) Average Heart Rate (HRméd). Reliability was tested through the reproducibility of the measurements of the OCT variables, expressed by the Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC). The predictive capacity of VO2max was given by multiple linear regression and the final stability of the model by the analysis of the residues and the calculation of Cook’s distances, with a value of P≤ 0.05 adopted for statistical significance. Results: the predictive model based on age, sex, waist circumference, BMI and circuit execution time explained 41% of VO2max variance, with a standard error of estimate of 18.5%. Conclusion: the OCT exhibited satisfactory reproducibility (0.62 to 0.93), and proved to be valid, reliable, and specific for predicting the cardiorespiratory fitness of older adults attending RAL, demonstrating adequate reproducibility and a positive association with the physical fitness of older adults.

“…Estudos realizados no Brasil indicam que a maioria dos usuários das AAL é adulto (entre 40 a 59 anos), do sexo feminino, com ensino médio ou ensino superior completos [8][9][10][11][12][13] . Alguns estudos evidenciam que a maioria dos usuários tem sobrepeso ou obesidade 9,11,13,14 e é considerada suficientemente ativa no lazer 9,10,14 . Com relação à utilização das AAL, as diferentes estratégias adotadas para obtenção de dados nos estudos dificultam estabelecer um padrão, porém verifica-se que há considerável utilização das AAL nos dias durante a semana 8,11,12 e que o número de dias de utilização por semana pode variar de acordo com o Município estudado, sendo utilizada de 5 a 7 dias em Florianópolis, Santa Catarina 10 e Boa Vista, Roraima 13 e mais de 3 dias por semana em Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul 15 ; Curitiba, Parana 12 ; Teresina, Piaui 11 e Paranaguá, Parana 14 .…”

O objetivo foi analisar o perfil, nível de atividade física dos usuários e o padrão de uso das Academias ao Ar Livre (AAL) de Uberaba, Minas Gerais, Brasil. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de entrevista “in loco” com usuários de nove AAL. Foram entrevistados 148 usuários. Os usuários das AAL de Uberaba, Minas Gerais são na maioria mulher, adulto, casado, com ensino médio completo, percebem a saúde como boa e são ativos fisicamente. A proporção de usuários com renda até 2 salários mínimos foi de 53,4%. A maioria frequenta o espaço há mais de 1 mês, utiliza a AAL durante os dias de semana, mais de 3 vezes na semana com duração superior a 30 minutos. Os usuários consideram o local acessível, próximo à sua residência, e realizam deslocamento até o local caminhando. A grande maioria percebe a AAL como local seguro (93,9%), embora em três AAL não foram observados usuários nos dias da coleta. A maioria dos usuários não vai acompanhado, mas às vezes encontra pessoas que conhece e não possui acompanhamento de um profissional de educação física. Esses resultados devem ser considerados pelos gestores do município com a finalidade de promover maior utilização das AAL nos finais de semana e maior utilização de homens, jovens adultos e idosos e indivíduos de menor escolaridade.
