description Background and objectives: Physical inactivity contributes to the magnitude of non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and is responsible for premature deaths globally. The aim of this study was to examine physical inactivity and associated factors among community-dwelling adults in Abia State, Nigeria. Methods: A community-based cross-sectional survey was conducted among 868 adults (20 to 59 years) using multistage sampling technique. Information on sociodemographic and lifestyle characteristics was obtained using a validated questionnaire. The weight and height were measured and used to calculate the body mass index (BMI). The Global Physical Activity Questionnaire (GPAQ) was used to collect data on physical activity status. Univariate and multivariate regression were used to assess the association of physical inactivity and associated factors at a P-value of

Results: The prevalence of physical inactivity was 49.8% (48.5% in males and 51.0% in females), while combined overweight and obesity was 39.4%. Older age (OR=0.49, 95% CI: 0.34- 0.71), high BMI (OR=0.67, 95% CI: 0.49- 0.91), higher income (OR=0.65, 95% CI: 0.48- 0.89), and alcohol consumption (OR=0.67, 95% CI: 0.47- 0.97) were associated with physical inactivity. Conclusion: The high prevalence of physical inactivity among adults underscores the need for community-based physical activity interventions to reduce the burden of NCDs among adults.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0250-6807</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1421-9697</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1159/000530786</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Basel: S.
