Ensuring health and well-being during this pandemic is essential according to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Physical exercise has an important role in the preservation of the immune system, which is vital to prevent infections. To promote physical exercise and maintain a healthy status, recent studies have suggested general exercise routines to be implemented during the quarantine period. However, to improve the health-related physical fitness components, any specific prescription should include intensity, volume, duration, and mode. Controversy persists about which is the best intensity of physical activity, while performing exercise at a moderate intensity could bring important benefits to asymptomatic people. High intensity or unaccustomed exercise should be restricted for older people, and for people of all ages with chronic diseases or compromised immune system, obesity, or upper respiratory tract infection with limited symptoms. Besides, physical activity guidelines should be particular to each population group, giving special consideration to those vulnerable to COVID-19 who are much more likely to suffer more self-isolation. Therefore, the present study is to provide specific physical activity recommendations for different populations during this pandemic.
根据联合国可持续发展目标，在大流行期间确保健康和福祉至关重要。体育锻炼对免疫系统的保护具有重要作用，这对于预防感染至关重要。为了促进体育锻炼和保持健康状态，最近的研究建议在隔离期间实施常规的锻炼计划。但是，要改善与健康相关的身体素质成分，任何特定的处方都应包括强度，量，持续时间和方式。关于最佳运动强度仍存在争议，而进行中等强度的运动可以为无症状人群带来重要益处。高强度或不习惯的运动应限制老年人以及所有年龄段的患有慢性疾病或免疫系统受损，肥胖或上呼吸道感染且症状有限的人使用。此外，体育活动指南应针对每个人群组，特别要考虑那些容易感染 COVID-19 的人群，这些人更容易遭受更多的自我隔离。因此，本研究旨在为大流行期间的不同人群提供特定的体育活动建议。
