“…Despite not having assessed the sample's LPA by distinguishing between courses, the present study showed higher proportion of individuals classified as "very active / active" who have student link (f = 324), from the health area (f = 217) and with undergraduate / specialization level (f = 227). This is consistent with results of Silva 22 and Melo et al 23 , since among Physical Education students at a university also in northeastern Brazil, 10.6% (95% CI: 6.5-14.7) were considered to be physically inactive, while 14% of academicians at a university in southeastern Brazil were classified as physically inactive.…”

The aim of the present study was to investigate the level of physical activity and associated factors of the academic community of a Brazilian federal higher education institution. Overall, 483 students, 49 teachers and 153 administrative technicians of both genders participated in this stdy. Sociodemographic questionnaire, BMI evaluation and classification of the level of physical activity (IPAQ) were used. Statistical analysis was performed by the Pearson Chi-square test to observe possible associations between independent variables and LPA and Poisson regression analysis with 95% confidence intervals through the SPSS software version 22.0. Among the 61.8% of individuals classified as physically active, 48.90% belonged to the health area and 52.40% had Graduation / Specialization level. Of these, 45.7% showed normal BMI and 62.2% of them did not practice exercises before being admitted to the extension project. Teachers and administrative technicians were, respectively, 3.62 (95% CI = 1.11-11.82) and 2.15 (95% CI = 1.03-4.66) times more likely of having sedentary behavior when compared to the group of students. LPA was higher in undergraduate students, while teachers and technicians were more likely of being sedentary. The majority of participants had normal BMI and the largest portion of physically active individuals was composed of students of the health area. Thus, it is necessary to encourage interventions for the practice of physical activity within the academic community, as well as the implementation of internal policies to mobilize individuals to improve the worrying situation of sedentary behavior.

Este estudo teve como objetivo identificar os níveis de atividade física de estudantes do curso de Educação Física no Brasil. Metodologicamente tratou-se de uma revisão sistemática da literatura, a qual foi estruturada a partir das recomendações do Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA). As buscas foram realizadas nas bases de dados LILACS, PubMed, SciELO e SPORTDiscus. Os artigos originais incluídos foram apenas aqueles que apresentavam resultados quanto ao nível de atividade física de estudantes do curso de graduação em Educação Física, no Brasil, bem como utilizaram instrumentos validados. A partir dos critérios de inclusão, 15 estudos passaram pelas etapas de análise. A maioria das investigações ocorreram na região Sul do Brasil, utilizou o International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) para aferir a atividade física e as recomendações da Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) na avaliação do nível de prática. Todos os estudos apresentaram uma alta prevalência de estudantes fisicamente ativos, variando entre 71,5% e 100%. Pode-se concluir que os estudantes do curso de Educação Física têm se mostrado enquanto uma população predominantemente ativa no Brasil.

“…Physical activity (PA) has become an important public health issue for developed and developing countries, such as Brazil (1,2) , because its regular practice is capable of providing health and well-being benefits, leading to a reduction in mortality rates and minimizing the development of noncommunicable diseases number, such as cardiovascular diseases (3,4,5) . The World Health Organization characterizes physical inactivity (PI) as the fourth leading risk factor for mortality worldwide and over the years this mortality rate from PI increased from 1.9 million in 2005 (6) to 3.2 million in 2008 (7) and 5.3 million in 2012 (5) .…”

Background: Physical inactivity (PI) is one of the most important risk factors that contribute to the development of chronic diseases, including cardiovascular diseases. Objective: To analyze the prevalence and associated factors with PI in adults from a Basic Health Unit in the city of Uraí, state of Paraná. Methods: An observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study was performed at Basic Health Unit of Uraí, and 100 subjects of both genders were evaluated, the average age of 47.55 ± 17.13 years. The data collection was carried through an interview where information of sociodemographic characteristics, consumption of alcoholic beverages, tobacco use, level of physical activity (PA) (IPAQ-8, short version), information of anthropometric measures, waist circumference, and rest blood pressure were collected. The Chi-square and Odds Ratio test was used, considering 95% of confidence interval, using the statistical package SPSS, version 20.0, with a significance level of p <0.05. Results: The prevalence of PI on the sample studied was 66% in both genders. The factors significantly associated with the PI were: advanced age ≥ 40 years (p <0.01), overweight with BMI ≥ 25 (p <0.013), abdominal circumference above 102 cm in men and 88 cm (p <0.042) (P <0.001) and high blood pressure ≥130 / 85 mmHg (p <0.025). Conclusion: The prevalence of associated factors with PI it is high, which suggests the need of public policies and awareness of the importance of oriented-prevention physical activity practice.
