Abstract
Las actividades físicas en el medio natural han experimentado un auge considerable
en la última década hasta el día de hoy. A esto hay que sumarle la función de distensión que puede
producir en personas inmersas en las imposiciones actuales de nuestra sociedad. La muestra del
presente estudio se compone de 43 mujeres, todas ellas participantes del programa de Actividad
Física para Mayores de la provincia de Málaga, con edades comprendidas entre los 60 y 79 años y
que pertenecen a tres poblaciones inferiores a 3.000 habitantes, en una comarca denominada Sierra
de las Nieves. Las participantes cumplimentaron un cuestionario sociodemográfico sobre la
participación en el citado programa y realizaron todas las pruebas físicas de las que se compone el
Senior Fitness Test (Rikli and Jones, 1999). Los resultados obtenidos muestran diversas
correlaciones negativas entre diferentes variables de la condición física de las participantes con
determinadas características sociodemográficas y muy pocas relaciones positivas entre las mismas
variables.

To this we must add the function of relaxation that can occur in people immersed in the current constraints of our society. The sample of this study consists of 43 women, all program participants Physical Activity for Older province of Málaga, aged between 60 and 79 years and belongs to three populations less than 3.000 inhabitants, in a region called Sierra de las Nieves. The participants completed a sociodemographic questionnaire on participation in that program and performed all the physical tests which include the Senior Fitness Test (Rikli and Jones, 1999).
