Abstract
Numerous preventive measures of social distancing and lockdowns have been imposed by governments and health authorities in order to reduce severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) transmission. This, in turn, has significantly impacted upon physical activity levels and other healthy habits in different countries around the globe, which may precipitate several negative sequalae on the health of the world population. Here, we briefly discuss the current scientific evidence on the subject and propose relevant recommendations moving forwards.
