- Abstract
Physical inactivity ranks fourth among the main risk factors for mortality worldwide. Aim to relate a change or increase in the level of physical activity with socioeconomic variables and lifestyle over a six-month period in university students in the health field. This is a longitudinal study, consisting of 167 university students in the health area in northeastern Brazil. Use the "Map of Physical Activity and Health-MAFIS" as an instrument or questionnaire. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics in the form of frequency and percentage, square test, posterior assembly of the logistic regression model. The results show that the university students who responded are “barely able” to wake up an hour earlier to perform protected physical activities by 78% (OR: 0.217; CI: 0.056-0.83) against the practice of AFLAZ compared to those who consider " quite capable ". It was concluded that the willingness to wake up 1 hour earlier is related to doing physical activity over a period of six months in health students.
