Learning at a higher educational institution requires effort, intense mental work. The life and study of students take place in conditions of limited motor activity and a large training load, stressful situations, as well as malnutrition.
The aim – to study and evaluate the level of physical activity of students in the first year of studies at І. Horbachevsky Ternopil State Medical University.
Material and Methods. A questionnaire was conducted for 333 students of І. Horbachevsky Ternopil State Medical University, the age of the respondents was 17–19 years. They were asked to complete a questionnaire on demographic and general physical activity. As a method of study, the International Physical Activity (IPAQ) questionnaire was used in full version.
Results. The results of the survey showed a high level of general physical activity of the students. The highest level of physical activity was demonstrated in the students during the sport, and the lowest – during domestic work. According to the study, most of the students surveyed had a normal body weight. According to the results of the study of the physical activity level, depending on the amount of free time in the surveyed students, it was proved that those who consider that they had no free time had the highest level of general physical activity, as well as in all types of physical activity (in work, at home and in sports).
Conclusions. Students have a high level of physical activity (5590.2 MET×min/week). Most of the students surveyed had a normal weight, but 6 % of the students were overweight. Students who believed that they had no free time had the highest level of general physical activity, as well as in all types of physical activity, thus, these people spent their free time more reasonably.
