Abstract

Practicing physical activity correctly and regularly by adolescents can have positive effects on body image. In addition, it promotes the development of a positive relationship with your own body and improves your emotional well-being. In this sense, the objectives of this study were to carry out a systematic review of research that implemented interventions to evaluate the effects of physical activity on body image in adolescents, as well as to describe and analyze them. In order to achieve these purposes, a systematic review was conducted that examined research related to physical activity and body image in adolescents. To carry out this review, the PRISMA Statement was used. The results obtained demonstrate that the incorporation of regular physical activity in adolescents provides significant improvements in the perception of body image and physical self-perception. Furthermore, an improvement in the enjoyment of physical activity is highlighted, which is relevant to promote adherence to it. In this way, the review of the articles reflects a general agreement on the positive benefits on body image of including physical exercise in adolescents. However, the need to carry out future research that provides more current and established results, specifically aimed at the young population, is highlighted.
