15. Healthy habits and lifestyles: a look from physical activity, science and technology

Abstract

In Cuban universities, the practice of physical activity has as a fundamental objective to contribute to the integral formation of the future professional. Currently, there is a need to train professionals whose modes of action have a positive impact on society. On the other hand, Covid-19 has imposed changes in habits and lifestyles, modifying the ways of acting, bringing with it a greater use of technologies, causing people to assume prolonged and sedentary postures. In the present work, an assessment of the social importance of healthy habits and lifestyles in university environments is carried out.
