Physical activity has been lately discussed around the whole world mainly because of its impact on human health. Due to huge technical development and current life style it turns out that the society is almost inactive. Physical activity is completely insufficient which brings a lot of negative effects on an individual and their health. The aim of thesis was to study the specialized literature in the field of physical activity and its impact on human health, processing of the given literature in the ´research part´ of my thesis and summary of that literature. Further parts of thesis are devoted to gathering of the necessary data, analyzing the results from IPAQ - long (International Physical Activity Questionnaire) questionnaire and monitoring the results from pedometer. To ascertain the amount of physical activity I opted for the IPAQ-long fulfilled by 120 probed people and also for the monitoring of the number of steps a day for a period of one week. The monitoring was performed on 30 individuals with the help of pedometers. The pedometers were individually set for the given person. According to the information gathered from the questionnaires and monitoring with the pedometer is obvious that some individuals miss physical activity in the field of intensive load and the number of steps in a day. Overall, it is possible to say, that according to the recommendation made by USDHHS, all respondents comply with the standard recommended for and adult individual in case of staying healthy.
