It included individuals with prediabetes\/diabetes who had completed an exercise intervention, which started on-site and moved to a remote home-based regime due to the COVID-19 pandemic and were advised to keep exercising at home. The outcomes were assessed by a bespoke questionnaire that was developed by the research team, the Brazilian Portuguese adapted version of the Exercise Adherence Rating scale, and the Motives for Physical Activity Measure-Revised scale. Of 15 participants (8 female, 58 \u00b1 11 years), most reported positive perceptions about their living conditions and few difficulties maintaining some physical activity at home. However, only 53.8% of them adhered to the recommended exercise. Time flexibility, no need for commuting, and a sense of autonomy were the main facilitators of home exercise, while a lack of adequate space was the main barrier. The descending order of median scores that were obtained in each reason for physical activity was fitness, enjoyment, competence, social, and appearance. Individuals with prediabetes\/diabetes maintained some physical activity during the pandemic, mainly motivated by health concerns.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph19148857","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,21]],"date-time":"2022-07-21T10:36:56Z","timestamp":1658399816000},"page":"8857","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Maintenance of Physical Activity Behavior by Individuals with Prediabetes and Diabetes during the COVID-19 Pandemic after Completing an Exercise Intervention in Brazil"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Isabela Coelho","family":"Ponciano","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Program in Rehabilitation Sciences and Physical-Functional Performance, Faculty of Physical Therapy, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Avenida Eug\u00eanio do Nascimento S\/N, Juiz de Fora 36038-330, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5088-1414","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mariana Balbi","family":"Seixas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiovascular Research Unit and Exercise Physiology, University Hospital, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Avenida Eug\u00eanio do Nascimento S\/N, Juiz de Fora 36038-330, MG, Brazil"},{"name":"Graduate Program in Physical Education, Faculty of Physical Education and Sports, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Rua Jos\u00e9 Louren\u00e7o Kelmer S\/N, Juiz de Fora 36036-900, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tiago","family":"Pe\u00e7anha","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Program in Rehabilitation Sciences and Physical-Functional Performance, Faculty of Physical Therapy, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Avenida Eug\u00eanio do Nascimento S\/N, Juiz de Fora 36038-330, MG, Brazil"},{"name":"Department of Sport and Exercise Sciences, Musculoskeletal Science and Sports Medicine Research Centre, Faculty of Science & Engineering, Manchester Metropolitan University, 99 Oxford Road, Manchester M1 7EL, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Adriano Luiz","family":"Pereira","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Program in Rehabilitation Sciences and Physical-Functional Performance, Faculty of Physical Therapy, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Avenida Eug\u00eanio do Nascimento S\/N, Juiz de Fora 36038-330, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Patr\u00edcia Fernandes","family":"Trevizan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Cardiovascular Research Unit and Exercise Physiology, University Hospital, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Avenida Eug\u00eanio do Nascimento S\/N, Juiz de Fora 36038-330, MG, Brazil"},{"name":"Department of Physical Therapy, Federal University of Minas Gerais, Avenida Presidente Ant\u00f4nio Carlos, 6627-Pampulha, Belo Horizonte 31270-901, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Raquel Rodrigues","family":"Britto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Program in Rehabilitation Sciences and Physical-Functional Performance, Faculty of Physical Therapy, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Avenida Eug\u00eanio do Nascimento S\/N, Juiz de Fora 36038-330, MG, Brazil"},{"name":"Department of Physical Therapy, Federal University of Minas Gerais, Avenida Presidente Ant\u00f4nio Carlos, 6627-Pampulha, Belo Horizonte 31270-901, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9352-1504","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lilian Pinto da","family":"Silva","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Program in Rehabilitation Sciences and Physical-Functional Performance, Faculty of Physical Therapy, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Avenida Eug\u00eanio do Nascimento S\/N, Juiz de Fora 36038-330, MG, Brazil"},{"name":"Cardiovascular Research Unit and Exercise Physiology, University Hospital, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Avenida Eug\u00eanio do Nascimento S\/N, Juiz de Fora 36038-330, MG, Brazil"},{"name":"Graduate Program in Physical Education, Faculty of Physical Education and Sports, Federal University of Juiz de Fora, Rua Jos\u00e9 Louren\u00e7o Kelmer S\/N, Juiz de Fora 36036-900, MG, Brazil"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"American Diabetes Association (2022). 5.
