Abstract

 Background: Due to the epidemic of COVID-19, health authorities have enacted laws for social distance from people. . The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in the level of Physical Activity during social distance caused by COVID-19 in Mrkazi Province, and the impact of Physical Activity on mental welfare. Materials and methods: In this cross-sectional study, a total of 558 adult residents of Markazi Province (20-60 years old) participated in a snowball sampling strategy to answer an online questionnaire. Physical Activity was assessed using a valid 5-item questionnaire. The short Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale used for measuring mental The relationship between Physical Activity and Mental Health was studied using Pearson correlation. Results: In the study sample, 58. 42% were female and 41. 58% were male. 97% of participants indicated that they adhered to social distancing guidelines. Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, the total time of Physical Activity in January 2020 significantly decreased compared to that in March 2020 in community-dwelling adults in Mrkazi province (P=0. 001). A significant positive correlation was observed between the level of Physical Activity and mood score in men and women (r=0. 14, p=0. 001). Conclusions: In the present study of adults in Markazi Province and at the time of social distancing due to COVID-19, those who were physically active had better Mental Health. These results suggest that even light Physical Activity during the COVID-19 epidemic may help reduce the negative Mental Health effects associated with social distancing and quarantine adherence.
