Abstract
O envelhecimento é um processo inevitável do percurso de vida de um ser humano, que contribui para a deterioração da saúde e aumenta a vulnerabilidade à morte. Com o aumento da idade média da população, aumenta também o número de idosos que estão em risco de desenvolver doenças crónicas e estados de debilidade relacionados com o envelhecimento. A atividade física está fortemente relacionada com uma morbilidade e mortalidade mais baixas e, cada vez mais, se destaca o seu potencial benefício no envelhecimento e na longevidade.Contudo, a maior parte da população mundial é fisicamente inativa. De forma a combater este problema desenvolveram-se recomendações nacionais e internacionais para a atividade física. O objetivo deste trabalho é descrever o impacto da atividade física no envelhecimento e na longevidade, rever as várias recomendações existentes na área da atividade física, e propor intervenções eficazes para diminuir os níveis de sedentarismo na população, e que contribuam para aumentar a qualidade e esperança de vida humana.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
