Abstract
This study aims to determine differences in body mass index, sedentary lifestyle, and physical activity of junior high school students in mountainous and coastal areas. This study used a cross-sectional design with 97 junior high school students as reasearch subjects who were living in coastal areas (CoA) and mountainous areas (MoA). Anthropometric measurements of subjects were performed to determine nutritional status based on BMI. The level of physical activity was measured using the IPAQ short form instrument and the Sedentary Lifestyle using the ASAQ instrument. Data were analyzed by descriptive test, percentage, and Mann Whitney test. The results showed a normal BMI category with a mean MoA (19.35±2.78) and CoA (20.25±4.00). For PA also showed a moderate results with a mean MoA (1970±2633.16) and CoA (1388.12±2290.20). While SL showed low mean results, namely MoA (187.85±217.62) and CoA (121.12±87.85). The results of the Mann Whitney test stated that the P value> 0.05 in BMI, PA, and SL. The conclusion is that there is no significant difference in nutritional status, physical activity, and sedentary lifestyle between students living in mountanious areas and coastal areas.
