Full textThe aim of this MPH thesis is to describe the experience of elderly people who have completed an eight-week intervention walking project. The insight and knowledge acquired in this study have been very useful with regard to the planning of walking for the elderly people who would not otherwise have ventured outside. A qualitative method has been used. The population consists of the eleven projectparticipants who completed the eight-week intervention period. The theme-based interviews have been transcribed in full and analyzed in accordance with a qualitative thematic analysis inspired by Giorgi’s guidelines and Husserl ́s philosophy. The project participants` comments demonstrate that walking as intervention gave them the experience of doing something, especially for their own wellbeing. Other important results were a sense of increasing mastery of their situation ,improved physical fitness, moreenergy, higher spirits a sense of fellowship, and some knowledge of the surroundings and nature. The project includes a new dimension: People who would not otherwise have ventured outside now do so because they get support either by walking alone and experiencing the "obligation" of walking or by walking with a companion. Offering walks to elderly people who would not otherwise have ventured outside seems to be a good decision in a public health care perspective because these elderly peoplepresumably live longer with a better health.

Full textAssociated with physical inactivity and obesity are numerous other health risks which have become a major health concern. A steady decrease in the levels of physical activity during childhood and adolescents have been noted in various parts of the world. The picture of low physical activity levels in developed countries is no different in developing countries. Children spend the majority of their day at school therefore a school setting is ideal to conduct physical activity intervention studies The primary aim of this study was to measure the effect of an intervention programme on the physical activity participation levels among school going children and adolescents. The study was carried out at an urban independent Catholic school. The sample, which was conveniently selected, which included 100 learners from grade 5 to 7 with parental consent. A quantitative approach using a quasi-experimental design was used in this study. Baseline data included levels of physical activity participation, Body Mass Index (BMI), hip-waist ratio, and socio-demographic variables. Physical activity was assessed with the Modifiable Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents. The Promoting Lifestyle activity for Youth (PLAY) programme was implemented at the school. This process-oriented programme shifts the focus from fitness toward regular participation in daily physical activity, and it is not intended to replace a comprehensive physical education programme.

Full textO Brasil caminha rumo a um perfil demográfico cada vez mais envelhecido. Indivíduos com mais de 65 anos superam a casa dos 13 milhões, correspondendo a 10,2% do total da população brasileira. Apesar de a atividade física contribuir para a autonomia e a independência dos idosos, ainda é elevado o nível de sedentarismo nessa população. Tendo em vista a complexidade da adesão à prática de atividades físicas e sua continuidade, este trabalho teve como objetivo analisar os efeitos de duas diferentes intervenções, voltadas à mudança de comportamento sedentário de idosos no momento de lazer. A variável desfecho foi a mudança na média de minutos semanais utilizados para a prática de atividades físicas no lazer. Para tanto, foi realizado um estudo quasi-experimental com integrantes de uma coorte populacional de idosos residentes em zona urbana (projeto EPIDOSO) classificados como sedentários no domínio lazer, de acordo com o Questionário Internacional de Atividade Física (IPAQ), ou seja, não atingiam dez minutos nas referidas práticas. A amostra foi constituída por 121 idosos, subdivididos em três grupos: grupo aulas práticas(GA), grupo estímulo (GE) e grupo controle (GC). Aos grupos GA e GE, foram aplicadas duas diferentes intervenções durante um período de três meses. Os integrantes do GA participaram de aulas realizadas duas vezes por semana, com duração de sessenta minutos cada, contendo atividades aeróbicas e exercícios de flexibilidade, equilíbrio e fortalecimento muscular. Os idosos do GE receberam um folheto explicativo contendo questões a respeito dos benefícios da prática de atividades físicas e informações de como realizá-las; e foram acompanhados através de chamadas telefônicas pelo mesmo período. As avaliações foram realizadas através da reaplicação do IPAQ, ao término das intervenções (T90) e três meses após as mesmas (T180). O grupo controle foi apenas reavaliado após 180 dias (T180). A análise de variância com medidas repetidas (T90 e T180) com um fator categórico de três níveis (Aulas, Estímulo e Controle) mostrou que, ao término das intervenções (T90 dias), os idosos no GA tiveram um aumento significativamente maior na média de minutos semanais de atividades físicas, quando comparada aos do GE (111,1 min/sem e 42,7 min/sem, respectivamente). No entanto, na avaliação realizada três meses depois de cessadas as intervenções (T180), as médias de minutos semanais dos dois grupos foram semelhantes (71,5 min/sem. e 71,8 min/sem), e superiores às verificadas no grupo controle (43,3 min/sem). Dessa forma, concluímos que as estratégias de proporcionar aulas ou entregar folheto explicativo com orientações sobre práticas de atividades físicas, seguidas de acompanhamento telefônico, contribuem para a redução significativa dos índices de sedentarismo no tempo de lazer dos idosos.
Brazil has shown an increasingly older demographic profile. There are more than 13 million people over 65 years old (10.2% of the Brazilian population) in the country nowadays. Even though physical activities contribute to older adults’ autonomy and independence, their level of sedentarianism is still high. Taking into account the complexity regarding the commitment to physical activities, this study aimed at analyzing the effects of two different interventions whose intention was to change the sedentary behavior of older adults in their free time. The variable result was the change in the average of minutes used for physical activities in their free time, per week. Therefore, a quasi-experimental study was carried out with members of a cohort of older adults who live in an urban area (a project called EPIDOSO) and who have been classified as sedentary regarding their leisure activities, according to the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), i. e., they had not even spent ten minutes/week doing these activities. The sample comprised 121 older adults, divided in three groups: class (CG), stimulus (SG) and control ones. Groups CG and SG underwent two different interventions for three months. Members of CG took part in two 60-minute classes per week with aerobic activities and flexibility, balance and muscle strengthening exercises. Older adults in the SG got a folder with questions about the benefits of carrying out physical activities, besides information on how to practice them; follow-up involved phone calls during this period. Evaluation was performed by re-applying the IPAQ at the end of the interventions (T90) and three months after that (T180). The control group was reevaluated after 180 days (T180). Variance analysis of repeated measures (T90 and T180) with a categorical factor of three levels (Class, Stimulus and Control) showed that, at the end of the interventions (T90 days), the older adults in CG had significantly increased their weekly average of physical activities by comparison with the ones in the SG (111.1 min/week and 42.7 min/week, respectively). However, the evaluation that was performed three weeks after the end of the interventions (T180) showed that the average of both groups was similar (71.5 min/week and 71.8 min/week) and superior to the one collected in the control group (43.3 min/week). Therefore, I have concluded that strategies which comprise classes or handing out folders with guidelines about physical activities, followed by phone calls, have similar effects. Both contribute to decrease in sedentarianism levels of older adults’ free time by comparison with the control group.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of lifestyle intervention and exercise intervention on physical activity behaviour, cognition, and physical fitness in adults. Quasi design was utilized. A total of 60 middle-age adults, aged 30-60 (mean age 40.2 ± 7.6 years), were assigned to lifestyle, exercise, or control groups. Three months of intervention and six months of follow-up were conducted. Physical activity behaviour, cognition, and physical fitness were assessed at the beginning of the study, 3 months and again 9 months into the study. Data were analyzed by ANCOVA, Wilcoxon Signed Ranks test, and One Way ANOVA. Results were as follows: (1) physical activity in both lifestyle and exercise groups showed significant improvement compared to control group at the end of the intervention. Stage of change in both lifestyle group and exercise group also showed significant improvement; (2) cardiorespiratory endurance in exercise group showed significant improvement compared to both lifestyle and control groups; (3) physical activity in both lifestyle and exercise groups showed significant improvement compared to control group in the follow-up assessments. Stage of change was significantly enhanced in lifestyle group only. Furthermore, both exercise self-efficacy and decision balance were significantly improved in lifestyle group compared to both exercise and control groups; and (4) muscular fitness in lifestyle group showed significant improvement in the follow-up assessments compared to both exercise and control groups. The conclusions were as follows: Among middle-aged adults, (1) both lifestyle and exercise interventions are effective in enhancing physical activity behaviour and stage of change; (2) exercise intervention is effective in improving cardiorespiratory endurance; (3) both lifestyle and exercise interventions are effective in improving physical activity behaviour and stage of change at the end of the 6-month follow-up period; while self- efficacy and decision balance were enhanced only in the lifestyle intervention group; and (4) lifestyle intervention is effective in improving the muscular fitness in the follow-up assessments.
