摘要:Studies of the physical activity of 17-year-old adolescents attending selected schools in Lithuania were conduc ted in 2010 with the use of the IPAQ. The adolescents di ered with respec t to the scope of leisure time possessed. Considerably more boys than girls indicated that they had a su cient amount of leisure time, but to the contrary, considerably more girls than boys declared that they possessed an insu cient amount of free time. The majority of schoolchildren were charac terized by a high level of physical activity, with the larger group being boys. Low activity was not observed among boys, and in only a few girls.Moderate e ort constituted the highest percentage of physical activity among adolescents, whereas an intensive ac tivity – the lowest. Considering the total area of ac tivity, there dominated occupational activity (education), while its smallest percentage was devoted to sports and recreation. Boys evaluated their physical e cacy in more negative terms than girls. Adolescents with a higher self-reported e cacy were characterized by higher physical activity. The majority of adolescents had a normal BMI. Girls and boys had di erent preferences concerning motor activities. Girls mainly used walks, bicycle riding, and running, while boys also chose bicycle riding and running, and played sports games. The adolescents also had new expectations – girls reported mainly horse riding, aerobics and dancing, whereas boys mentioned football and bodybuilding tness exercises
