Abstract

The aim of the present study was to compare the perception of Current Body Image (CI) and CI intended to have with Body Mass Index (BMI), Fat Percentage and Physical Activity Practice of Physical Education students. To this end, the present study conducted a quantitative and qualitative research, collecting data on BMI, fat percentage, level of physical activity and HF perception. The data were reported using descriptive statistics and show that these physical education students do not present CI perception compatible with the data presented by the BMI and fat percentage evaluation. The intended HF may be under the influence of sociocultural issues involving aesthetics, the myth of the “healthy body” and the image of an “athlete” or “very trained” person. In general, the data found in this study suggest that Physical Education students practice physical activity regularly and this practice is associated with an expectation around the CI, influencing the intended CI. and this practice is associated with an expectation around the BI, influencing the intended BI.
