Abstract

Background: People were isolated at home during the COVID-19 pandemic and were restricted from going outside, leaving them with the option of physical activity at home. The purpose of this paper is to examine how home isolation during an epidemic changes adult lifestyle and health behaviors and the role of physical activity during home isolation in improving adult dysphoria. Methods: Four major databases were searched and the 21 final included papers on home physical activity during the epidemic were evaluated. The literature was analyzed and evaluated using generalization, summarization, analysis, and evaluation methods. The findings revealed that home isolation during the epidemic changed the lifestyle and physical activity behavior of adults. Participation in physical activity varied among different levels of the population during home isolation for the epidemic. In addition, physical activity in home isolation during the epidemic helped improve adults’ poor mood. The negative impact of prolonged home isolation on the health of the global population cannot be ignored, and more encouragement should be given to diversified indoor physical activities to maintain physical and mental health. In addition, there is a need to develop more personalized technology tools for physical activity supervision regarding use.
