缺乏身体活动和久坐不动的行为与身体和精神健康状况不佳有关。该文章旨在评估巴西参与者在2020年COVID-19疫情期间因社交距离措施而进行与其实践相关的体育活动的习惯变化。次要目的是描述他们的焦虑和抑郁水平。是次网上调查所使用的问卷包括人口统计资料、有关COVID-19对日常生活影响的自我认知问题及14项医院焦虑抑郁量表。共有1，613名成年人在2020年5月11日至15日期间完成了问卷调查。其中，79.4%的人报告说，控制这一流行病的措施对他们的体育活动产生了任何影响，许多人不得不中断或减少他们的活动频率。那些感觉隔离对其身体活动影响较大的参与者往往有更高的焦虑和抑郁症状。从事体育活动的个人报告说，社会距离对他们的做法有很大的影响。此外，这些习惯的改变与高水平的不良心理健康有关。
Physical inactivity and sedentary behavior are associated with poor physical and mental health. The article aims to assess the changes in the habits of the Brazilian participants engaged in physical activities in relation to their practices, due the measures of social distancing during the COVID-19 epidemic in 2020. The secondary objective was to describe their levels of anxiety and depression. The questionnaire used in this online survey included demographic information, questions about self-perceptions of the impact of the COVID-19 in the life routines and the 14-item Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale. A total of 1,613 adults completed the questionnaire between May 11 and 15, 2020. Of those, 79.4% reported that the measures to contain the epidemic had any impact on their physical activities, and many had to interrupt or decrease the frequency of their practices. Participants who felt a higher impact of quarantine on their physical activities tend to have higher prevalence of anxiety and depression symptoms. Individuals who practiced physical activities reported that social distance had a high influence on their practices. Furthermore, changes in these habits are associated with high levels of poor mental health.
