(1) Physical activity is one of the most influencing factors in people' quality of life. Likewise, the costaleros of the Holy Week of Andalusia (Spain) carry out an important effort with high intensity during an extended time without any preparation. This study was the aim of knowing the intensity of the physical activity practiced by the costaleros in relation to their quality of life. (2) A transversal study was carried out with 1057 costaleros in Andalusia (Spain), where 930 were male and 127 female, between the ages of 18-61 years old (31.26 ± 7.60). For this purpose, descriptive, inferential, and correlative analyses were developed. Accelerometers (ActiGraph) were used during the procession to know the intensity of physical activity and the SF-36 test to know the self-perceived state of health and quality of life. (3) The intensity of physical activity practiced by costaleros is moderate, and it is related with their quality of life. In addition, positive associations are found between general health and physical activity. (4) Participants' quality of life is associated with physical activity and freedom from injury. In addition, the measurement by accelerometry provides real data on the intensity of the effort made.
（1）身体活动是影响人们生活质量的最重要因素之一。同样，西班牙安达卢西亚复活节的抬棺者（costaleros）在没有任何准备的情况下，长时间高强度地进行着重要的努力。这项研究旨在了解 costaleros 所进行的身体活动强度与其生活质量的关系。（2）本研究为横断研究，共纳入了西班牙安达卢西亚地区的 1057 名 costaleros，其中 930 名为男性，127 名为女性，年龄在 18-61 岁之间（31.26±7.60）。为此，进行了描述性、推断性和相关性分析。在游行过程中使用加速度计（ActiGraph）来了解身体活动的强度，以及使用 SF-36 测试来了解自我感知的健康状况和生活质量。（3）costaleros 所进行的身体活动强度为中等，并且与他们的生活质量相关。此外，还发现一般健康状况和身体活动之间存在正相关关系。（4）参与者的生活质量与身体活动和无伤害相关。此外，加速度计的测量提供了有关所做努力强度的真实数据。
