摘要：Introduction. A large-scale research was performed concerning issues relating to physical activity as an important factorin a healthy lifestyle and involved observing the differences among males and females as future elites of the Ukraine.Objective. The objective of the research is to assess the physical activity of students from the Ukraine, considering suchfactors as: gender, leisure time, time spent sitting, sports performed or intended to be performed, and the BMI.Materials and method. The extended version of the IPAQ, supplemented with 3 original questions by the authors, wasapplied to a 2,125-strong student group from 12 majors of the University of Luck, Ukraine.Results. Students from Ukraine portrayed a positive picture of physical activity with significantly higher values in malestudents of both total activity and its fields, i.e. sports activity and work (studying). The male students performed better intheir fitness (condition) self-assessment and the amount of time spent sitting, whereas the female students had better BMIresults. Both genders differed considerably in their choice of sport-recreational activities.Conclusions. Females more than males demonstrated lower indices of participation in physical activity, which did notpermit the formulation of a positive assessment of their lifestyle. A positive phenomenon is the normal BMI and trace valuesof overweight in women, exactly the reverse to males.
