Abstract

Background: Physical inactivity is one of the major risks of morbidity and mortality associated with the development of chronic diseases. 6-10% of global mortality associated with non-communicable diseases is related to physical inactivity. Unlike in Western countries, research on the practice of physical activity by populations does not receive enough attention from the scientific community in Africa. To bridge this gap and draw people's attention to the need for physical activity, the present study is carried out. Methods: This cross-sectional analytical study conducted from April 1 to June 30, 2019 among shopkeepers in the commercial district of the city of Bouaké aims to promote physical activity among subjects exposed to NCDs due to their occupational sedentary lifestyle. Merchants were recruited on the basis of exhaustive sampling during the study period. Results: A group of 474 shopkeepers were surveyed by means of a questionnaire. 16.4% of the shopkeepers had been made aware of the need for physical activity by a health professional, and 32.5% were physically active. The positive impact of physical activity was unanimously recognized (91.6%), with benefits for the heart (70.9%), weight (66.9%), brain (31.4%) and lung (28.7%). There was a statistically significant relationship (p<0.05) between physical activity and gender, age, education and marital status. Conclusion: Recognition of the health benefits of physical activity does not automatically lead to its practice by retailers, which raises the issue of the integration necessary for the effective application of certain health-promoting practices.
