Resumo: | Introduction: Physical activity is essential for a healthy life, with benefits for physical and mental health. Sedentary lifestyle can have serious consequences on the individual's life, such as increased anxiety and worsening obesity, hypertension, and other conditions. Physical exercise is also a factor of psychological well-being, capable of relieving tension and controlling depressive feelings. However, with the entry into the university, mainly in the medical course, many students have less and less time dedicated to this practice. Objective: To identify the profile of physical activity practice of medical students at the Federal University of Alfenas (UNIFAL-MG) in relation to gender and the period studied. Methodology: Medical students were included in the sample, who answered two data collection instruments: I) Sociodemographic Questionnaire and II) International Physical Activity Questionnaire - Short Form (IPAQ-SF). These questionnaires were applied by the researchers at the beginning and end of the second and third periods of the course, totaling four surveys. Results: Data analysis did not show statistical differences in gender classifications and between each period within the same sex. However, there was a decrease in the proportion of students in the level of activity "active" in contrast to the increase in the level "Irregularly active A" at the end of the school periods. Conclusion: Although considering the challenges faced during graduation, such as accumulation of activities and curricular requirements, there was no change in the pattern of physical exercise practice. |

El estilo de vida sedentario puede tener graves consecuencias en la vida del individuo, como un aumento de la ansiedad y el empeoramiento de la obesidad, la hipertensión y otras afecciones. El ejercicio físico es también un factor de bienestar psicológico, capaz de aliviar tensiones y controlar los sentimientos depresivos. Sin embargo, con el ingreso a la universidad, principalmente en la carrera de medicina, muchos estudiantes tienen cada vez menos tiempo dedicado a esta práctica. Objetivo: Identificar el perfil de la práctica de la actividad física de los estudiantes de medicina de la Universidad Federal de Alfenas (UNIFAL-MG) en relación con el género y el período estudiado. Metodología: Los estudiantes de Medicina fueron parte de la muestra, quienes respondieron a dos instrumentos de recolección de datos: I) Cuestionario Sociodemográfico y II) Cuestionario Internacional de Actividad Física - Forma Corta (IPAQ-SF). Estos cuestionarios fueron aplicados por los investigadores al inicio y al final del segundo y tercer período del curso, totalizando cuatro encuestas. Resultados: El análisis de los datos no mostró diferencias estadísticas en las clasificaciones de género y entre cada período dentro del mismo sexo. Sin embargo, hubo una disminución en la proporción de estudiantes en el nivel de actividad "activa" en contraste con el aumento en el nivel "Irregularmente activo A" al final de los períodos escolares. Conclusión: Aunque considerando los desafíos enfrentados durante la graduación, como la acumulación de actividades y los requisitos curriculares, no hubo cambio en el patrón de práctica del ejercicio físico.Introdução: A atividade física é essencial para uma vida saudável, com benefícios para a saúde física e mental. O sedentarismo pode ter consequências graves na vida do indivíduo, como o aumento da ansiedade e o agravamento da obesidade, hipertensão, e outras condições. O exercício físico também é fator de bem-estar psicológico, capaz de aliviar tensões e controlar sentimentos depressivos. No entanto, com o ingresso na universidade, principalmente no curso de Medicina, muitos estudantes possuem cada vez menos tempo destinado a essa prática. Objetivo: Identificar o perfil de prática de atividades físicas dos estudantes do curso de Medicina da Universidade Federal de Alfenas (UNIFAL-MG) em relação ao sexo e ao período cursado. Metodologia: Fizeram parte da pesquisa estudantes do curso de medicina que responderam a dois instrumentos de coleta de dados: I) Questionário Sociodemográfico e II) Questionário Internacional de Atividade Física – Forma Curta (IPAQ-SF). Esses questionários foram aplicados pelos pesquisadores no início e final do segundo e do terceiro períodos do curso, totalizando quatro inquéritos. Resultados: A análise de dados não demonstrou diferenças estatísticas das classificações entre homens e mulheres e entre cada período dentro do mesmo sexo. No entanto, observou-se uma diminuição da proporção de alunos no nível de atividade “ativo” em contraste com o aumento no nível “Irregularmente ativo A” aos finais dos períodos letivos. Conclusão: Ainda que considerando-se os desafios enfrentados durante a graduação, como acúmulo de atividades e exigências curriculares, não foi observada mudança do padrão de prática de exercícios físicos.Research, Society and Development2021-06-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/889910.33448/rsd-v10i7.8899Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 7; e1471078899Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 7; e1471078899Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 7; e14710788992525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/8899/14637Copyright (c) 2021 Marcus Augustus Alves Ferreira; Sara Regina Alcalde Domingos; Carlos Bernardo Assis Trovão; Julia Liceras; Maria Jullia Sallum Marcos; Lithany do Monte Carmello; Flávio Bittencourt; Evelise Aline Soareshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFerreira, Marcus Augustus Alves Domingos, Sara Regina Alcalde Trovão, Carlos Bernardo Assis Liceras, JuliaMarcos, Maria Jullia Sallum Carmello, Lithany do MonteBittencourt, FlávioSoares, Evelise Aline 2021-07-18T21:07:03Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/8899Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:31:16.288867Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
