Neste estudo, analiso a forma como tem se constituído o que vem a ser um estilo de vida saudável na compreensão do Conselho Federal de Educação Física. Para isso, tomo como corpus de análise algumas reportagens apresentadas pela revista do Conselho Federal de Educação Física (CONFEF), denominada ‘Revista EF’, contextualizando, sobre os modos como esta revista tem produzido determinados tipos de profissionais de educação física. Para fundamentar tal discussão, tomei como base teórica o campo dos Estudos Culturais, especialmente aqueles de inspiração pós-estruturalista. Assim, pude problematizar como a revista tem se utilizado de estratégias que visam legitimar suas compreensões acerca do que vem a ser um estilo de vida saudável, bem como marcar a indispensabilidade dos profissionais de educação física na adoção desse modo determinado como “saudável/ativo” de conduzir a vida. Exploro os textos das Revistas EF, operando, principalmente, com o conceito de governamento. A partir das compreensões apresentadas pelas publicações das Revistas EF, acerca da adoção de estilos de vida mais saudáveis/ativos e a indispensabilidade do profissional de educação física como demonstrado pela revista, foi possível realizar uma articulação entre as compreensões da Revista EF, as formas de governamento, a atividade física entendida de forma medicalizante e a importância dos especialistas, refletindo, assim, as relações de poder-saber que envolvem e legitimam a Educação Física, no contexto do CONFEF, enquanto campo de saber. / In this study, I analyze the way how it has been constituted what a healthy lifestyle is in the understanding of the “Conselho Federal de Educação Física”. For this, I take as corpus of analysis some reports presented by the magazine of the “Conselho Federal de Educação Física” (CONFEF), denominated “Revista EF”, contextualizing about the ways how this magazine has produced certain types of physical education professionals. To substantiate this discussion, I took as a theoretical basis the field of Cultural Studies, especially those with a poststructuralist inspiration. Thus, I could discuss how the magazine has been using strategies that aim to legitimize their understandings about what a healthy lifestyle is, as well as mark the indispensability of physical education professionals in the adoption of this mode determined as “healthy/active” of leading the life. I explore the texts of “Revista EF” magazines working manly with the concept of governance. From the understandings presented by “Revista EF” magazines about the adoption of healthier/active lifestyles and the indispensability of the physical education professional as demonstrated by the magazine, it was possible to make a link between the understandings of “Revista EF”, the forms of governanance, the physical education understood as a medicalized form and the importance of the specialists, thus reflecting the relations of power-knowledge that involve and legitimize the Physical Education, in the context of CONFEF, as a field of knowledge.

Objectives: The aim of the thesis is evaluating the influence of a 3 months interventional motion program on body composition parameters and a quality of life of seniors - students of U3V. Methods: The body of the thesis is consisted of quantitative and qualitative analysis. It is a quasiexperiment. Descriptive and statistical methods were used for a complete evaluation. Bioimpedance methods were used to obtain the body composition parameters and results were evaluated in a statistical program IBMSPSS Statistics 22. A maximum grip strength was determined by a handheld digital dynamometer. A subjective evaluation in a form of survey was used to assess the quality of life. Results: A specific group of seniors - students of U3V tend to lead an active lifestyle, which is reflected on the results of body composition parameters. During the three month motion program highly significant changes regarding improvement of FFM parameter were observed within a younger group of seniors. Within a older group of seniors, improvement or stagnation of regressive changes was observed, albeit the changes were deemed insignificant. In general, qualitative improvement of body composition was...

The topics of this diploma thesis are issues of a sedentary lifestyle and the influence of compensatory exercises as an instrument to compensate the muscle imbalances associated with it. In the theoretical part of my thesis, I focused on explaining and defining the basic problems of this topic and then on several already published international studies dealing with this issue for a long time. I have chosen three studies that reflect the problem on the human body and show significant problems connected with a sedentary lifestyle. For my own research I created compensation exercises for my selected reference group, that is the good specimen due to its sedentary occupation and the age between 40-51, based on the published international studies. For my research I have used the method of experiment in which I have used the testing, examination and evaluation techniques of the motor system. The plan of compensation exercises I created based on the imbalances I have studied and problems associated with a sedentary lifestyle. My research was also focused on the positive effects of physical activity in this group due to their workload and the causal link between a sedentary lifestyle and health of the respondents. The main objective of my thesis is to demonstrate the impact of this plan of compensation...
