Notes
| In these documents it is possible to observe the characteristics of weekly frequency, duration, and intensity of physical activities during leisure-time, according to sociodemographic characteristics. Women reported doing more physical activity lasting between 30 and 59 minutes, with light/moderate intensity compared to men (figure_1_sex). Elderly people had a higher weekly frequency for physical activity in relation to adults and, in turn, were more likely to practice activities of longer duration and intensity (figure_2_age). Subjects without a partner reported practicing physical activity more frequently and with greater intensity than their peers (figure_3_marital_status). Participants with higher levels of education performed practices with longer durations, however, there were no significant differences in frequency and intensity in those with less education (figure_4_education). It was also found that, for all regions of Brazil, most subjects reported practicing physical activity one to four times a week, especially in the Southeast and South, lasting ≥60 minutes and with light/moderate intensity (figure_5_regions_of_brazil). |
