O Ingresso na Universidade proporciona uma grande alteração nos hábitos de vida dos estudantes. Os estudantes de Medicina são duas vezes mais inativos tendo alto nível de estresse acadêmico. Este projeto visa avaliar o nível de atividade física e capacidade aeróbia de estudantes universitários. A população alvo foram estudantes do 1º e 5º ano do curso de medicina entre os 18 e 30 anos. Foi teita a amostragem aleatória e estratificada, com afetação proporcional (n=87). Entre fevereiro e abril de 2013, o nível de atividade física referido foi avaliado através do 7-days physical activity recall, o PAR-Q foi usado para a triagem dos estudantes avaliados através do Rockport Walk Test a capacidade aeróbia. Para o estudo descritivo dos dados recolhidos foram utilizados a média, a média aparada, a percentagem, a percentagem válida e a análise das frequências. De entre os estudantes, 21.8% e 51.7% não fazem qualquer tipo de atividade física moderada e intensa, respectivamente. Os estudantes do 5º ano praticam mais atividade física que os do 1º ano. O sexo feminino refere a metade da atividade física intensa semanal que o sexo masculino. Cerca de 85% dos estudantes referem não fazer alongamentos e 73.6% não efectuavam exercícios de força. O VO2max estimado através do RWT foi em média de 51.2ml·kg-1·min-1 para o sexo masculino e de 44.2ml·kg-1·min-1 para o sexo feminino. Os dados sugerem que os alunos do 1º ano e o sexo feminino são os mais propensos a níveis de atividade física regular inferior ao recomendado.
ABSTRACT - Join the University offers a major change in lifestyle of students. Medical students are twice as inactive and having a high level of academic stress. This project aims to assess the level of physical activity and aerobic capacity of college students. The target population were students of the 1st and 5th year of medical school between 18 and 30 years. Was made and stratified random sampling with proportional affectation (n=87). Between february and april 2013, the level of physical activity that was assessed through physical activity 7Day Recall, the PAR-Q was used for screening of students assessed by Rockport Walk Test aerobic capacity. For the descriptive study of the collected data were used to average the trimmed mean, in percentage, the percentage valid and analysis of the frequencies. Of the students, 21.8% and 51.7% do not make any kind of moderate and intense physical activity respectively. The 5th grade students have more physical activity than those in the 1st year.The female half of the states intense physical activity weekly males. About 85% of students report not do stretching and 73.6% did not exercise power. The VO2max by RWT was 51.2ml.kg-1.min-1 for males and 44.2ml.kg-1.min-1 for females. The data suggest that students of 1st year and females are more prone to physical activity levels lower than recommended.
