Sažetak
There is an increasing number of studies indicating the importance of exercising and leisure physical activities (PA) for the purpose of improving health, as well as for reducing the risk of certain chronic diseases. The aim of this research is to determine the extent to which the Zagreb residents engage in leisure PA compared to current WHO recommendations and guidelines. The aim is also to determine whether there are differences, depending on gender and age, in the conducting of different types of leisure PA. The sample of the study consisted 446 Zagreb residents. Data were collected using a standardized survey questionnaire used in the second cycle of the European Health Interview Survey. Leisure PA consisted certain variables: 1. recreational aerobic PA ; 2. Resistance training ; 3. Walking, 4. Cycling. The results showed that 76.2% of citizens don’t conduct recreational aerobic PA, and 89.9% don’t conduct resistance training even once a week. Men were more physically active than women in recreational aerobic PA, walking and cycling (P < 0.01). Results in variables of walking, cycling and resistance training were higher among residents aged < 60 years (P < 0.001). The findings suggest an insufficient leisure PA level of the City of Zagreb residents. There is a need for more quality, science-based interventions to promote physical activity in leisure time.
