INTRODUCTION: The non-medicated treatment for arterial hypertension involves changes in lifestyle. Physical activity (PA) and physical exercise (PE) regularly practiced can control arterial hypertension, decreasing global cardiovascular risk. However, the assiduity of hypertensive older people in PE programs and PA still look reduced. The variables that can explain this issue are not yet known. OBJECTIVE: To verify if the adequate practice of exercise and physical activity are associated with nutritional status, health risk behaviors, and eating habits in older hypertensive adults. METHODS: older hypertensive adults (n=10.789) with a mean age of 70.9±7.4 years old from the database of study of surveillance of risk and protection factors for chronic diseases by telephone survey -VIGITEL were classified as practicians (1) or not-practicians (0) of PE and if they were sufficiently actives (1) insufficiently actives (0). Binary logistic regression tested the odds ratio (OR) between the dependent variables (PE practice and PA classification) to be associated with the independent variables (nutritional status with body mass index [BMI], health risk behaviors with screen time ≥3 hours/day, alcohol, and tobacco consumption; both answered in a dichotomous way [yes/no] and eating habits [consumption of minimally processed and ultra-processed food scores]. RESULTS: the probability of practicing PE and achieving sufficient levels of PA are increased for each score derived from minimally processed food consumed (OREF=16.8%; ORAF=13.2%, respectively; p<0.05). The same probabilities are reduced when they are higher nutritional status (ORPE=-2.1%; ORPA=-2.7%), screen time (ORAF=-10.2%), alcohol (ORPE=-29.4%; ORPA=-31.1%) and tobacco (ORPE=-53.2%; ORPA=-38.4%) consumption are confirmed and for each score consumed more of ultra-processed food (ORPE=-11.2%; ORPA=-10.1%). CONCLUSION: The practice of PE and being sufficiently active in older hypertensive adults seems to be related to an adequate nutritional status, less frequency of health risk behaviors, and eating habits inadequate. Objective strategies in an attempt to modify the behavioral risk factors that interfere with the control of arterial hypertension in older adults can be adopted to improve the assiduity of hypertensive older people in body movements.
