INTRODUÇÃO: A pandemia COVID-19 trouxe um impacto relativamente significativo no mundo. A Malásia implementou uma estratégia de isolamento social em todo o país para nivelar a curva da epidemia. À medida que os limites ao movimento e à interação social entraram em vigor, mais indivíduos parecem menos ativos fisicamente. OBJETIVO: Determinar as barreiras percebidas para a atividade física entre jovens adultos da Malásia durante a pandemia de Covid-19. MÉTODOS E MATERIAIS: Total de 217 participantes incluídos na faixa etária de 18 a 40 anos participaram voluntariamente deste estudo. Os participantes foram excluídos se não fossem malaios e apresentassem quaisquer problemas psicológicos e deficiência física que impedissem a atividade física. O questionário Barrier to Being Active (BBAQ) foi distribuído por várias plataformas de mídia social de janeiro de 2021 a maio de 2021. Os dados categóricos foram apresentados usando frequência simples e absoluta na distribuição de perfis sociodemográficos e respostas do BBAQ. Qui-quadrado de Pearson com nível de confiança de 95%, p <0,05 foi utilizado como nível de significância para analisar a associação entre gênero e barreiras. RESULTADOS: A barreira relatada pelos participantes foi “falta de força de vontade” 136 (62,7%), seguida de “falta de energia” 117 (53,9%), “falta de recursos” 113 (52,1%), “falta de tempo”, 109 (50,2%), “influência social” 100 (46,1%), “falta de habilidade” 48 (22,1%) e “medo de se machucar” 40 (18,4%). Não houve relação significativa entre gênero e barreira à atividade física entre jovens adultos da Malásia. CONCLUSÃO: A “falta de energia”, “falta de força de vontade” e “falta de recursos” foram as barreiras mais percebidas para a atividade física entre jovens adultos da Malásia durante o bloqueio COVID19. Não houve associação significativa entre as barreiras de atividade física e o gênero.Downloads
