Abstract

Introduction: Obesity and physical inactivity are more prevalent among women. Evidences have suggested that the severity of obesity might be associated with the lifestyle. Objectives: To compare the level of physical activity between women in grade 2 and grade 3 obesity. Methods: We assessed 29 women (47 ± 10 years; 109 ± 16 kg; 1.60 ± 0.06 m) in grade 2 (n = 8) and grade 3 (n = 21) obesity, who were admitted to a public health service reference in obesity treatment. The level of physical activity was estimated using the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire. Results: Woman in grade 2 obesity reported longer periods in moderate intensity activities than grade 3 (1338 ± 921 cf. 501 ± 473 min·wk-1, p < 0.001), while no differences were observed for vigorous intensity activities (p = 0.29) and total time of moderate to vigorous activities (p = 0.06). Considering the questionnaire domains, woman in grade 2 obesity reported longer periods in recreational activities than grade 3 (411 ± 410 cf. 156 ± 189 min·wk-1, p = 0.01), but no differences were observed in occupational activities (p = 0.13), active transportation (p = 0.49) and sedentary behavior (p = 0.20). Conclusion: Woman in grade 2 were more physically active than grade 3.
