Resumo

Introduction: Although physical activity (PA) promotion has been identified by the Brazilian Ministry of Health as an important strategy for health promotion, there is no evidence whether physical activity promotion has been included in the agenda of primary health care units (PHC), in Brazil. Objectives: The aim of the present study was to describe PA intervention and its characteristics in health care settings in Brazil.
