Forte Freitas Junior Medicina women women obesity obesity climateric Objective: The aim of this study was to compare the differences in the levels of physical activity practiced during the weekdays and weekends in obese postmenopausal women. Method: 117 post-menopausal women aged between 50 and 79 were evaluated. To estimate the per- centage of body fat the Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry was used. The assessment of physical activity level was obtained using a tri-axial accelerometer. Results: There was a significant increase in physical activity-light and a significant decrease in physical activity moderate, vigorous, moderate–vigorous and overall number of counts at the weekend compared to the weekdays. The physical activity moderate–vigorous reduced by an average of 38.6% ( p < 0.001) at the weekend compared to the weekdays. Conclusion: Obese post-menopausal women presented decreasing physical activity moderate, vigorous, moderate–vigorous and overall number of counts at the weekends compared to the weekdays and an increase in physical activity light. 2017 artículo científico 1888-7546 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=323350682004 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3233 Revista Andaluza de Medicina del Deporte application/pdf Junta de Andalucía Revista Andaluza de Medicina del Deporte (España) Num.2 Vol.10 |
