The aim of this study was to reflect on the vulnerability status and adherence of physical activity in Rio de Janeiro. The subjects were 5,457 individuals who had looked for and started physical activity in fitness centers. Additional data on the poverty in Rio de Janeiro were gathered and figures borne out by the "Human Development Index" for the city were also taken into account. In addition, seven participants were interviewed: two were obese, two had a history of heart disease and three were senior citizens. The results have pointed out that, apart from being faced with a risk factor, people could be vulnerable whenever they cannot take on physical activity.Downloads
