The physical capabilities of the individual will influence to have a greater chance of aging
with better quality of life. Objective: to describe the practice of physical activity and fitness
related to health of students of the sixth and ninth grade of elementary school and the first and
third year of high school in the city of Tocantinópolis/TO. Methods: It is characterized as a
descriptive, cross-sectional and school-based quantitative study. The sample was recruited by
a single-stage conglomerate, composed of 6th and 9th grade students, and the 1st and 3rd year
of high school in a public school in Tocantinópolis/TO. The instrument used was a
questionnaire structured with sociodemographic questions, physical activity practice and time
in sedentary behaviors. The following measures were performed: body mass and height for
calculating body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference (WC). The tests were applied in
an environment with predetermined times and dates with the direction of the school. Data
were tabulated in Microsoft Excel (2007) and analyzed from Stata 13.0, using descriptive
statistics and correlation analysis between physical activity time per day and waist
circumference. Results: According to the results, the sample comprised 69 male adolescents
(47.8%) and female adolescents (52.2%), who practiced 278.56 ± 78.2 minutes / day of
activity physics. Correlation analysis indicated that there was no significant correlation
between physical activity time per day and waist circumference (r = 0.13, p = 0.30).
Conclusion: does not hear a correlation between physical activity time and waist
circumference among adolescents. |
