Artículo “A Moverte con UFLO” un programa de acondicionamiento físico para personas adultas mayores(FUNGADE, Colombia, 2023) Baigún, Valeria; De Roia, GabrielaLa actividad física realizada de forma segura, eficaz y de manera regular proporciona importantes beneficios en salud a las personas adultas mayores (PAM). Programas de ejercicio físico grupales en espacios abiertos para esta población son recomendados. El propósito de este artículo es describir el programa “A MOverte con UFLO”. Este programa de ejercicio grupal para PAM en espacios públicos al aire libre, tiene el objetivo de mejorar o mantener las dimensiones de la aptitud física y así la salud de las PAM durante el período de envejecimiento. El mismo está basado en el concepto de diversidad de las PAM y cumple con los estándares de asequibilidad, seguridad y eficacia. El programa “A MOverte con UFLO” se compone de tres etapas; 1) Etapa diagnóstica, en la que nos proponemos establecer la línea de base del binomio de seguridad y eficacia para cada uno de los participantes 2) etapa de familiarización, se busca introducir a los participantes en los fundamentos del programa, este período incluye un proceso de realfabetización motriz así como de autocuidado 3) de diseño e implementación del programa a través de sesiones de actividad multicomponente en las que se desarrollan las diferentes dimensiones de la aptitud física que más se relacionan con la salud. Por último, se realiza un proceso de evaluación para revisar la ejecución del programa y valorar la efectividad del mismo al final del período.Artículo Argentina´s global matrix 4.0 report card results on physical activity for children and adolescents(Society for Physical Activity and Health, 2024-11-12) Lobo, Pablo; Holgado, Micaela; López, Laura; Baigún, Valeria; De Roia, GabrielaThe objective of the Argentine Global Matrix 4.0 Report Card was to synthesize the available national evidence on topics related to physical activity and health of children and adolescents and, based on that evidence, to assign a grade to some related indicators. Methods: The Report Card working group reviewed and compiled the best available evidence on the indicators developed by Active Healthy Kids Global Alliance. Each of the 12 grades (for 10 core and 2 optional indicators) were based on the percentage of children and adolescents meeting a benchmark established in the Global Matrix grading rubric: These grades could range from A+ (best) to F (worst), or an incomplete was assigned when evidence was insufficient or inadequate for grading. The grades were subsequently reviewed and harmonized by 2 independent Active Healthy Kids Global Alliance reviewers. Results: Overall Physical Activity, Sedentary Behavior, and Government, all received a grade of D+. Organized Sport and Physical Activity and Community and Environment each received a grade of C−. Obesity received a grade of C+. Active Play, Active Transportation, Physical Fitness, Family and Peers, School, and Sleep were graded as incomplete. Conclusions: Only half of the indicators were able to be graded, as the other half were inconclusive due to lack of evidence. This leaves a gap and thus a challenge at the national level to improve research, surveillance systems, and policies to promote physical activity during childhood and adolescence.Artículo Desigualdades en los comportamientos saludables durante el COVID-19 en niños y niñas provenientes de escuelas de gestión pública y privada de Buenos Aires(Sociedade Brasileira de Atividade Física e Saúde, Brasil, 2025) De Roia, Gabriela; Lobo, Pablo; Holgado, Micaela; Baigún, ValeriaComparar los comportamientos de actividad física (AF), tiempo de pantalla (TP) y sueño antes y durante el aislamiento social preventivo y obligatorio (ASPO) por COVID-19 de los/as niños y niñas que asisten a instituciones de gestión pública y privada de nivel primario del Gran Buenos Aires.Parte de Libro How to reduce sedentary behavior at all life domains(IntechOpen, 2021) López Torres, Olga; Lobo, Pablo; Baigún, Valeria; De Roia, GabrielaLifestyle has changed in the last century increasingly promoting sedentary behaviors. Prolonged sitting time is related to increased all-cause mortality risk. Therefore, scientific research aimed at understanding the effects of sitting on health has increased to find effective interventions that can be carried out in life domains (study, work, transport, and free time). The interaction between physical activity and sitting time plays a key role in the development of strategies to promote physical activity practice and reduce sedentary behavior. Accepting that the modern societies incite to spend long periods seated, the aim seems to find a balance between all the areas during the 24 h of the day. Maintaining sleep time, reducing screen leisure time to 3 h/day, and breaking prolonged sedentary time for 2–3 min every 30 min-1 h of sitting, as well as reaching the physical activity recommendation may help counteract the potential negative effect of too much sitting time. Governments must provide active free time options to promote active leisure time and help reduce screen time. At workplaces, managers and companies should encourage sitting breaks and work standing options, and for the special population such as children or older adults, new strategies must be considered to reduce sitting time.Póster In Argentina, evidence on physical activity is insufficient, so half of the indicators couldn´t be graded(Universidad de Flores, 2022) Lobo, Pablo; Holgado, Micaela; López, Laura; Baigún, Valeria; De Roia, GabrielaBased on the Global Matrix 4.0 initiative, Argentina's development of its first Report Card required a comprehensive review of nation-wide available evidence on the topic.Artículo Inequalities in healthy behaviors during the COVID-19 pandemic in children from public and private schools of Buenos Aires(Sociedade Brasileira de Atividade Física e Saúde, Brasil, 2025) De Roia, Gabriela; Lobo, Pablo; Holgado, Micaela; Baigún, ValeriaObjective: To compare physical activity (PA), screen time (ST), and sleep behaviors before and during the mandatory preventive social isolation (ASPO, for its acronym in Spanish) due to COVID-19 among children attending public and private primary schools in the Greater Buenos Aires metropolitan area. Methods: A total of 379 adult caregivers of children attending public and private primary schools completed an online survey on PA, ST, and sleep behaviors before and during ASPO. School type was used as an indicator of socioeconomic status, with private schools’ students considered more privileged than public schools’ students. Results: For both groups, ASPO resulted in a reduction in PA (-43%) and an increase in ST (79.9%). Children attending private schools had the worst results, since they started with better behaviors (PA pre vs during: 3.5 ± 1.3 vs 1.9 ± 2.0 days/week; ST pre vs during: 2.1 ± 0.6 vs 3.8 ± 1.0 days/week) compared to the children attending public schools (PA pre vs during: 3.1 ± 1.8 vs 1.8 ± 1.5 days/week; ST pre vs during: 2.4 ± 0.9 vs 3.6 ± 1.3 days/week). Sleep increased by 7.6% with a shift towards later bed and wake-up times, with public schools’ students being more affected. Conclusion: ASPO restrictions led to unfavorable changes in PA, ST and sleep behaviors among children attending public schools and private schools. ASPO evened out the pre-pandemic differences between public schools and private schools’ students in PA and ST behaviors.
