Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the physical activity level of male college students through a physical activity questionnaire. The differences in body composition and physical fitness factors were measured according to physical activity levels.BR The physical activity level was measured using the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) of 99 male students attending K University in the Kyungpook region. Based on the amount of physical activity, body composition (muscle mass, body fat percentage) and six items of behavior physical strength (muscle strength, muscle endurance, flexibility, power, agility, and balance) were measured. BR The mean and standard deviation of the collected data were calculated using SPSS 18.0. A One way-RG (3) ANOVA was used to analyze differences in body composition and physical fitness according to physical activity intensity. Statistically significant differences were found between the groups in body composition, muscle mass, muscle endurance, agility, and balance. These results show that the intensity of physical activity and the amount of physical activity above a certain level increases the muscle mass of male college students and results in the improvement of muscle endurance, agility and balance.
