Abstract

Despite investments made around the world, whether in the academic sphere or in the deployment and implementation of public policies, physical activity levels have not increased satisfactorily. Thus, the objective of this work is to identify which factors influence participation in Community Physical Activity Programs in the Brazilian reality. To this end, using the 2019 National Health Survey, 20,014 subjects were investigated considering participation in these programs as an outcome, with independent variables divided into biological and sociodemographic factors. For data analysis, binary logistic regression was adopted, with a significance level of p < 0.05, using Jamovi® software, version 2.3.21. Females (OR = 1.54; 95% CI: 1.40 – 1.69), “older people” (OR = 1.10; 95% CI: 1.01 – 1.21), and “non-white” people (OR = 1.51; 95% CI: 1.38 – 1.66) were more likely to participate in Community Programs of Physical Activity. Individuals with an income above 5 minimum wages presented reductions of 34% in the chances of participation (OR = 0.66; 95% CI: 0.57 – 0.76) when compared to those who reported an income of up to 1 minimum wage, and individuals who lived close to public places for leisure had higher chances of participating (OR = 1.71; 95% CI: 1.52 – 1.92). In conclusion, although biological and sociodemographic aspects influenced participation in Community Programs of Physical Activity, the existence of public leisure facilities close to homes was the factor with the greatest impact.
