description Introduction: Physical activity is an important determinant of health-related lifestyle and its regular practice is associated with reduction of chronic diseases. Objectives: To describe the amount of physical activity in different domains (occupational, displacement and free time), and assess the Body Mass Index and body fat percentage of students. Methodology: An analytic, cross-sectional study was carried out in college students of a faculty of physical culture, sport and recreation. Physical activity was determined by Global Physical Activity Questionnaire. Physical activity in the occupational, displacement and free time domains, was assessed. Results: The prevalence of overweight was 21.0% and of obesity 3.6% according to body mass index. 12.6% had excess total body fat. 98.8% of students were physically active and comply with the recommendations of the World Health Organization on physical activity for health. Stratified analysis of excess weight, physical activity and sedentary behavior by semester, evidenced higher percentage overweight or obesity in sixth to tenth semester students than those from first to fifth semester. Conclusions: Most students analyzed were physically active. Students who were enrolled in the second half of the race had higher percentages of excess weight. To assess the level of physical activity in students of physical culture is important because they represent a group of future professionals focused on promoting healthy lifestyles related to adequate levels of physical activity.

Objetivos: Describir la cantidad de actividad física en los diferentes dominios (ocupacional, desplazamiento y tiempo libre), y establecer el índice de masa corporal y el porcentaje de grasa corporal de los estudiantes. Metodología: Estudio analítico, corte transversal realizado en estudiantes de pregrado de una facultad de cultura física, deporte y recreación. La actividad física fue determinada mediante Cuestionario Mundial de Actividad Física. Se evaluó la actividad física en los dominios ocupacional, desplazamiento y tiempo libre. Resultados: El 21.0% presentó sobrepeso y 3.6% obesidad, según índice de masa corporal. El 12.6% presentó exceso de grasa total corporal. El 98.8% de los estudiantes es activo físicamente y cumple con las recomendaciones de la Organización Mundial de la Salud sobre actividad física para la salud. El análisis estratificado del exceso de peso, actividad física y conducta sedentaria por semestre académico, evidencia mayor porcentaje sobrepeso u obesidad en los estudiantes que cursaban de sexto a décimo semestre. Conclusiones: La mayoría de estudiantes analizados son físicamente activos. Los estudiantes que se encontraban cursando la segunda mitad de la carrera presentan mayores porcentajes de exceso de peso. Evaluar el nivel de actividad física en estudiantes de cultura física resulta importante dado que representan un grupo de futuros profesionales enfocados hacia la promoción de estilos de vida saludables relacionados con adecuados niveles de actividad física.application/pdftext/htmlspaUniversidad Industrial de Santanderhttps://revistas.uis.edu.co/index.php/revistasaluduis/article/view/5134/5474https://revistas.uis.edu.co/index.php/revistasaluduis/article/view/5134/5980Salud UIS; Vol. 47 Núm. 3 (2015): Revista Salud UISSalud UIS; Vol. 47 No. 3 (2015): Revista Salud UISSalud UIS; v. 47 n. 3 (2015): Revista Salud UIS2145-84640121-0807physical activitybody compositionstudentsmetabolic equivalentsportactividad físicacomposición corporalestudiantesequivalente metabólicodeportePhysical activity and body composition among college students of physical culture, sport and recreationActividad física y composición corporal en estudiantes universitarios de cultura física, deporte y recreacióninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85http://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1Rangel Caballero, Luis GabrielRojas Sánchez, Lida ZorayaGamboa Delgado, Edna Magaly20.500.14071/8825oai:noesis.uis.edu.co:20.500.14071/88252022-03-16 12:40:28.417metadata.onlyhttps://noesis.uis.edu.coDSpace at UISnoesis@uis.edu.co
