| Abstract (English): | Objectives In Colombia, chronic diseases represent a significant health burden. The promotion of physical activity has demonstrated effectiveness in terms of their control. The surveillance of physical activity levels in different age groups permits the design of specific interventions, monitoring and evaluation. To estimate the prevalence of global physical activity, sedentarism, physical activity for transportation and physical activity at school, among adolescent students in five Colombian cities. Materials and methods The Global School-based Health Survey was implemented in public and private schools of five Colombian cities: Bogota, Bucaramanga, Cali, Manizales y Valledupar. Students were selected through a multi-stage sampling procedure. The survey was anonymous, voluntary and self-processed by students. Statistical analysis was performed at the CDC. The results are representative for adolescent students of each city. Results The reported recommended levels of physical activity in students from 13 to 15 years ranged from 9 % to 19.8 % in the five cities, being constantly higher among males. Overall, 50.3 % of the students reported not being physically active for transportation to school. 50.3 % of the students played video or computer games or used a computer for 3 or more hours a day. Conclusion The results indicate low levels of physical activity among students of the five main cities in Colombia, pointing towards the need of interventions at different levels and the need for continuing surveillance.

| Abstract (Spanish): | Objetivo Las enfermedades crónicas representan una carga considerable de la enfermedad en Colombia. La promoción de actividad física constituye una de las intervenciones más exitosas para su control. La vigilancia de los niveles de actividad física en escolares, permitirá el diseño de programas para su promoción así como su monitoreo y evaluación. Estimar la prevalencia de actividad física global, actividad física para el transporte, sedentarismo y clases de educación física en jóvenes escolares de cinco ciudades de Colombia. Materiales y métodos Se implemento la Encuesta Mundial de Salud a Escolares en 2007, en colegios públicos y privados de Bogotá, Bucaramanga, Cali, Manizales y Valledupar. Se hizo un muestreo bietápico por conglomerados, de colegios y clases cuyos resultados son representativos por ciudades para los jóvenes escolares. La encuesta fue anónima, voluntaria y auto-diligenciada por los estudiantes. El análisis estadístico se realizó en los Centros para el Control y Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC). Resultados Los niveles de actividad física recomendada reportados por jóvenes de 13 a 15 años estuvieron entre 9 % y 19,8 % en las cinco ciudades, siendo más altos en hombres. 50,3 % de los jóvenes reportaron no realizar actividad física para su transporte al colegio y 50,3 % indicaron que pasaban tres horas o más diarias frente al televisor o pantalla de computador. Conclusión Los bajos niveles de actividad física en adolescentes de las cinco ciudades colombianas indican la necesidad de intervenciones en distintos niveles y nuevo monitoreo.
