Introduction

within the era during which we have a tendency to live, the attention that physical activity plays a
central role in maintaining and sick an honest state of health and also the relative and social functions of
the individual is more and more widespread (D'Elia et al , 2020), additionally to favouring motor learning
mechanisms (Di Domenico et al., 2019; 987 Raiola 2017, 2015, 2013) that favours the acquisition and
consolidation of many skills, as well as techniques ones (Ceruso et al, 2019ab).Regular lightintensity
physical activity interprets into important health edges like in elite contestant (Altavilla, 2020, D’Isanto,
2020, 2016, Sannicandro 2020, 2011, Sannicandro et al, 2015, 2017, 987 2008), furthermore as football
game athletes like for the football player (D’Elia et al, 2019, Izzo et al, 2020abc, 2019ab) whereas a
inactive mode and alternative risk factors contribute to the event of chronic chronic diseases,
significantly vessel (Altavilla et al, 2018; each et al ., 2017) however conjointly for additional use of
smartphone (Aliberti 987 et al, 2020).Motor activity, aimed toward safeguarding and promoting
psychophysical welfare, is to be thought of as a world intervention strategy that ends up in the
acquisition of lifestyles and activity skills that guide the individual to require responsibility towards
safeguarding their own health and collective.Sporting activity, on the opposite hand, aims at up the
athlete's performance skills determined by hereditary or nonheritable factors (D'Isanto et al., 2019) with
wellstructured and periodization of coaching programs.The SARSCOVID nineteen pandemic, that has hit
the earth in recent times, has conjointly negative repercussions on indoor exercise and sports, because
of social restrictions to contend with the contagion.In fact, closed environments favor the unfold of the
coronavirus and promote super disseminative events (Nishiura et al., 2020). this example generates
general concern regarding the negative health implications of inactivity and inactive behaviour (Hall et
al., 2020).It is thus of elementary importance that the specialists in physical and sports activities (D’Elia,
2020) develop more and more innovative, partaking and effective coaching ways and practices to retort
to clear desires for improvement and maintenance of health and performance as an alternate to the
standard ones disbursed at interior of indoor gyms.The coaching of execs, within the motor and sports
fields, should be bound towards the event of curricula (D’Elia, 2019) that area unit additional specific
and applicable to historical contexts.Outdoor coaching, referred to as outside coaching, may be a
terribly widespread coaching follow in recent times that, because of desires obligatory by the
epidemiologic context of COVID nineteen that has affected the complete planet, is developing in
associate more and more organized manner.Various studies make sure that active physical or sporting
activity outdoors will bring social, psychological and physiological advantages (Manferdelli et al., 2019;
Eigenschenk et al., 2019). The out of doors setting provides a practical setting for social
interaction(Leavell et al. 2019) and provides several advantages not obtainable in controlled indoor
environments (Brymer et al.,2014). activities in closed gyms, however enable out of doors coaching in
compliance with precise rules of social distancing, as well as sports competitions while not the presence
of the general public. As a primary response to the current modification within the social habits of active
physical activity inside in gyms, the professionals of physical activities and sports have developed
innovative and original style concepts for out of doors training by proposing completely different
physical disciplines for various categories of users. In our country, as in many others, the follow of out of
doors coaching has begun to unfold terribly quickly, however this follow has not shown the same level
of participation all told contexts. the explanations may well be numerous: from the dearth of safe
equipped areas for coaching, the ignorance of the trainers, the concern of users. Knowledge of the
development at a national level is beneficial for analysing the evolution of general adaptations, however
information|the info|the information} can not be wont to contend with the analysis of native data.
Therefore, it's a lot of helpful to have the precise knowledge concerning one territory to grasp native
trends and opinions, as they disagree from territory to territory.The problem is cognitive content of the
state of the art inherent within the variations and opinions of customers of physical activity and sports
gyms as a results of the closure of indoor gyms. this information, however, differs from territory to
territory by variety of social and environmental context, that the drawback is restricted to the world of
interest and towards that the eye of indoor gyms is directed. The chosen space is that of the
municipality of Fisciano within the province of Salerno wherever the users of the Studio Zen gymnasium,
that has concerning one hundred customers, square measure affected. Aim is to quantify the extent of
participation in out of doors coaching activities organized in compliance with anti-COVID laws.
specifically, the main target of the survey is concentrated on the definition of the potential population of
practitioners of the reference physical activities of the territory, the amount of motor and sports activity
before the pandemic and, finally, the results of the anti-COVID social restrictions on motor and sports
activity.

coaching frequency. what is more, the coaching activities most practiced throughout the closing amount
of the gyms are known. The sample in question is depicted by seventy six subjects United Nations
agency typically use the Studio Zen gymnasium to pursuevarious objectives: psycho-physical well-being,
competitive performance, non-competitiveperformance, postural and purposeful rebalancing, etc

Procedure

The sample was projected to participate within the outside coaching activities organized by the
structure. These activities were organized following the request by the gymnasium studio to the
Municipality of Fisciano to be able to use the municipal areas for the follow of physical and sporting
activities outdoors in compliance with current laws. The "Outdoor Workout" project approved by an
equivalent, that granted free public areas from twenty one Gregorian calendar month to fifteen
Gregorian calendar month 2020, was thus bestowed to the offices of the municipality of Fisciano. The
project enclosed courses in musical fitness, cross coaching, circuit coaching, Pilates and coaching for

with Google Forms.
Results

The analysis of the form responses provided necessary knowledge on the composition of the sample and
the levels of participation in outside coaching. Overall, the study sample (n = 76) consisted of sixty fourth
females and three hundred and sixty five days males. As shown in Figure one, the most delineate people
is formed from those between thirty and forty five years mature, equivalent to three hundred and sixty
five days, followed by the over forty five and eighteen to thirty age teams, severally representing the
twenty five.3% and pure gold of the sample; finally, the range between fourteen and eighteen years
mature represents fourteen.7%. The data pertaining to the profession area unit terribly heterogeneous.
an outsized a part of interviewees is formed from students, over 22%, housewives, 13.2%, and
workplace staff, 10.5%, the remaining half is formed from look assistants, freelancers, educators and
sports technicians. 97.4% of the interviewees, at the time of the questionnaire reply, area unit within
the Campania region, the remaining two.6% area unit within the Lazio region. The data show that
respondents attach nice importance to the construct of well-being. On a scale of zero to five, 73.7% of
the sample answered five. quite sixty seven of the interviewees think about themselves traditional
weight, 30.3% consider themselves overweight, the rest think about themselves weedy. The second
section of the form, regarding the amount of motor and / or sports activity before the closing of the
gyms, provides info on the habits of the topics interviewed within the amount preceding the pandemic.
As shown in figure two, before the closure of the gyms, ninety six of the interviewees practiced motor or
sport activities frequently, distributed as follows: fifty one.3% administered motor activity for well-
being, 31.6% carried out non-competitive sporting activities (sporting activity that doesn't involve
participation in federalcompetitions ), 13.2% administered competitive sporting activity (sporting activity
that involves participation infederal competitions) and three.9% didn't apply any motor or sport activity
frequently.

The weekly coaching frequency may be thought-about a crucial indicator of the extent of motor and
sports activity. Figure three shows that forty seventh of the interviewees, before the containment
measures, exercised 3-4 times per week, 32%carried out activities 1-2 times per week and, finally, 17
November trained for five or a lot of times per week. The third section of the form targeted on the
amount of apply of motor and sports coaching whenthe closure of the gyms. As shown within the graph
in Figure three, the closure of the gyms has modified habits concerning the levels of apply and therefore
the objectives of motor and sports activity. the info shown by the figure four demonstratethat, at the
closure of the gyms, the proportion of active physical or sporting activities fell to about eighty six (before
closing, the practitioners delineate ninety six of the sample). These subjects have organized themselves
in numerous ways: reception or outdoors severally, reception or outdoors below the supervising of
qualified technicians. there's a preference for activities administered reception, that settles at sixty
eight, of that less than [*fr1] with the assistance of on-line platforms and below the steerage of a
certified technician; thirty five.2% of the sample carried out coaching sessions outdoors, with a larger
preference for activities crystal rectifier by qualified trainers, about 23%; 13.2% didn't perform any
coaching activity when the gyms closed. Motor activities for well-being were most popular by seventy
one of the sample, before the internment this percentage reached fifty one. the info conjointly show a
decrease in interest in competitive and non-competitive sports: 12.2% of the sample administered
competitive sports throughout the closing amount of the gyms, down from the thirteen.2% recorded
before the closure ; just one.4% of the sample turned to non-competitive sports activities. This
percentage, within the amount before the closing, reached 31.6% An important knowledge is that with
reference to the weekly coaching frequency.

Figure five shows that with the closure of the gyms, fifty one of the interviewees practiced coaching
activities with a frequency of 1-2 times per week, a frequency that, before closing, was 34.2%; on the
opposite hand, the proportion pertaining to attending 3-4 times a week shriveled from forty seven.4%
found within the pre-closure amount to thirty one.1% found within the closure amount. The changesfor
frequencies of five or a lot of times per week don't seem to be relevant. The activities most practiced as
a part of the outside workout project were Pilates yoga, that was attended by thirty seventh of subjects,
followed by bodyweight coaching, 26%, and athletic and sports coaching, about 16%. Finally, the
explanation why not all interviewees joined the project is asked. The responses showed that, though
ninety three.7% of respondents knew what outside coaching was, 17.3% chose to not participate during
this apply for numerous reasons. V-day of them say that the cause is to be attributed to their worry of
contagion and twenty fifth say they are doing not like coaching outdoors, the remaining half already
didn't train regularly before the gyms closed.

Discussion

The results show that, though the majority of the themes continuing to coach through completely
different ways after the closure of the gyms, solely thirty fifth of them did outside coaching. the rest of
the sample used alternative methods to coach or didn't train the least bit throughout the internment.
various ways to outside coaching square measure represented by freelance coaching reception and on-
line coaching. Among the explanations that diode the themes to not choose the follow of outside
coaching as a legitimate various to coaching within the athletic facility or to not train the least bit, the
nonpreference towards this sort of follow emerges, as even before the coronavirus emergency they
didn't use, and the feeling of worry of a attainable contagion. the information show a bigger preference
for activities aimed toward well-being, less stern than sports activities, for numerous reasons which will
be psychological featuresupply and structure. In fact, a lot of low-impact activities square measure
chosen while not the employment of tools like Pilates and yoga, followed by freebody activities, running
and walking, finally, grooming activities for competitive and non-competitive sportsmen and girls. cross
coaching. an extra vital undeniable fact that emerged within the analysis is that the tendency of
subjects, throughout the lock down, to like motor activities to the damage of sports activities.

Conclusions

It is believed that the target has been achieved, because the levels of effectiveness of different
proposals have been quantified within the territory beneath examination to satisfy the necessity to be
able to train when the closure of the gyms to contain COVID nineteen. The out of doors coaching
proposal within the context of this study failed to have a high level of participation, most of the sample
used home coaching as an alternate, either severally or with the guidance of a certified technician
mistreatment numerous video career platforms or videoconference, the questionable "smart fitness"
(Raiola et al., 2020). This trend may well be reversed by movement professionals, through the event of
progressively safe and interesting coaching programs that cause larger participation in out of doors
coaching programs. an extra knowledge to be investigated and addressed following this study is that in
regard to the decrease in the tendency to apply competitive and non-competitive sports. A motivation
may well be found within the completely different level of commitment between the 2 varieties of
activities. Motor activity, geared toward achieving a suitable level of psycho-physical well-being, is a
smaller amount stringent than sports activity. Furthermore, the study arranged the foundations for
more investigations additionally on the national territory, in order to realize AN progressively effective
action to adequately answer the growing demand for motor and sporting activity in traditional and
emergency conditions.
