Opis
Izvleček:The objective of this research was to analyze the practice of physical activity for health promotion in nursing students of the Universidad Nacional de Loja through the knowledge and application of educational strategies in times of COVID-19, for strengthening healthy practices. The methodology developed emphasizes a quantitative and cross-sectional study and the census method was used to determine the study unit, with the help of a built-in instrument called the global physical activity questionnaire or GPAQ to assess physical activity. For the selection of the sample, inclusion criteria were taken into account, thus achieving the participation of 145 students of the Nursing career of Universidad Nacional de Loja. After analyzing the data obtained from the application of the instrument to the corresponding sample, it was evident that the majority of the population belongs to the female sex (75.2%), predominating those students in the range of 20.08 - 23.19 years (49.7%), who dedicate only to study (59.3%), more than half of the population belong to the average socio-economic level (69%). Regarding the assessment of physical activity in the different scenarios of daily life: at work, free time and when moving, low intensity levels were presented in a large percentage (76.6%, 46.9% and 43.4% respectively) in contrast to the levels of moderate and intense physical activity, which according to the evidence show low percentages in all the evaluated scenarios. Based on the results obtained, a proposal for educational actions was designed to strengthen healthy practices in times of pandemic. In conclusion, physical activity levels in university students turned out to be relatively low, therefore, health promotion plays an important role in the lives of students, especially in times of COVID-19.
