Abstract
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between smoking status and physical activity in order to promote healthier behaviors in Korean adults.
Methods: We selected 4,845 individuals from the 2013 Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey between the ages of 19 and 65 and compared smoking status and
physical activity levels in each gender and age group .
Results: Physical activity did not exceed 3000 MET minutes except in smokers, ex-smokers, non-smoking males between the ages of 19 and 29, and ex-smoking females between the
ages of 60 and 65.
Conclusion: There was no demonstrated association between smoking and physical activity in this study. Further studies which include various socio-demographic factors are needed in
order to encourage healthier behaviors in Korean adults who smoke.
