Abstract
La actividad física es esencial para mantener una vida
saludable y activa, definiéndose como cualquier forma
de movimiento del cuerpo que requiere un gasto de
energía y aumenta la frecuencia cardíaca. Engloba una
amplia variedad de actividades, desde caminar y correr
hasta practicar deportes y realizar ejercicios de fuerza,
ayudando a fortalecer el sistema cardiovascular, reducir
el riesgo de enfermedades crónicas como la diabetes
y las enfermedades cardíacas, controlar el peso corporal, mejorar la salud mental y aumentar la resistencia y
la fuerza muscular, mejorando la calidad de vida. Para
la medición y la identificación de los hábitos de actividad física, se aplican distintos cuestionarios para poder
realizar la recomendación de actividad física acorde con
las características de cada persona. El objetivo de esta
revisión exploratoria es identificar aquellos que más se
aplican y en la población escogida, además de proporcionar información a los futuros investigadores acerca de
las tendencias de publicación de este campo de conocimiento. Para la recopilación de artículos, se accedió a las
bases de datos de WOS, Scopus y EBSCO, siguiendo un
riguroso procedimiento para eliminar cualquier tipo de
sesgo, con un total de 53 artículos, encontrando que los
cuestionarios más aplicados son el IPAQ y el GPAQ
Physical activity is essential for maintaining a healthy and active lifestyle. It refers to any form of body movement that requires energy expenditure and increases heart rate. It encompasses a wide variety of activities, ranging from walking and running to sports and strength training. Regular participation in physical activity has numerous health benefits. It helps strengthen the cardiovascular system, reduce the risk of chronic diseases, such as diabetes and heart disease, control body weight, improve mental health, and increase muscular endurance and strength. In addition, physical activity promotes better sleep quality, increases energy consumption, and improves cognitive ability. For the measurement and identification of physical activity habits, different questionnaires were applied to make recommendations for physical activity according to the characteristics of each person. The aim of this exploratory review is to identify those that are most commonly applied in the chosen population, as well as to provide information to future researchers about publication trends in this field of knowledge
