Physical activity and health in teachers. A review


Abstract:

Most university teachers have sedentary lifestyles, a product of their own work. A documental and bibliographic review of scientific articles published from January 1999 to February 2016 was performed in order to update existing knowledge of physical activity on the health of teachers at international level. The databases searched were Medline, Scopus and Scielo. The search was performed using PubMed, and classified by 2 search targets. The following keywords were used: physical activity, physical exercise, and teachers; in English and Spanish (actividad física, ejercicio físico, docentes). Those studies implementing physical activity, at international level, of any kind to teachers were selected. Eight studies were found, all applied at different levels of experimentation (pre, quasi, and experimental) that demonstrated the benefits of physical activity in populations of teachers and future teachers.
