Objective of the study was to assess the physical activity of mature women living in urban and rural areas of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).
Methods and structure of the study. An international questionnaire for assessing physical activity (International Questionnaire on Physical Activity - IPAQ), developed by international WHO experts, was used, taking into account the types of physical activity performed by a person during the last week. Currently, the IPAQ, as well as its improved version (GPAQ), as an internationally comparable indicator for assessing the level of physical activity of the population, is used in more than 130 countries around the world [12, 13].
The survey was conducted using Google Forms (https://forms.gle/wm84Lcvn6A7qmUbU8) with the participation of 736 women living in the central regions of Yakutia.
Results and conclusions. Based on the results of the study, a deficit in physical activity was identified among women living in urban and rural areas of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia):
– 71.4% of women aged 18-39 years and 29.7% of women aged 40 to 65 years living in urban areas;
– in 67.9% of women aged 18-39 years, in 35.2% aged 40-65 years, and also in 25% of women over 65 years old living in rural areas.
