Background of the Study
Physical states places particular value on our society. The characteristics
of external factors such as inadequate nutrition and an abusive environment
influences physical changes. Many biological physical changes take place during
adolescent years, such as increases in height, acquisition of muscle mass, the
distribution of body fat. Physical dissatisfaction relates to negative evaluations of
body size, shape, height and weight, and it usually involves awareness of
discrepancy between a person's assessment of his or her body and his or her
ideal body. (Grogan, 2016)
Home quarantine consequences is a change in lifestyle, leading to a
Physical changes of the body. Many people do not use fitness centers for fear of
transmission of virus leading them to weight gain. (Hasanzadeh et al., 2020)
people deal with stress and depression leading to unhealthy diet and reduced
physical activity. Together with the unhealthy food and diet, the reduction of
physical activity will contribute to weight loss or gain during quarantine. (Mattioli
et al., 2020). Quarantine is regularly an unpleasant encounter loss of opportunity,
vulnerability over infection status, and fatigue can make sensational impacts.

The differentiation of boys and girls in dominance of obesity. It's intended
to evaluate different result centered to gender. Where the self-regulation is also
affecting girls and boys in terms of weight. Having low of self regulation in boys
will cause the high tolerance of gaining weight. To girls that has high of self
regulation the obesity decreases. (Anderson,2018).
Studies in general populations subject to similar constraints have
investigated the effect of self-quarantine on weight-related behaviors. Within a
group of adults participating in an ongoing study who were over the acceptable
weight range and were faced with the additional challenge of attempting to self-
manage their weight during this time, they had the opportunity to discuss these
problems. Many of the concerns posed by our participants were comparable to
those concerns highlighted in the general population as well as obesity patients
with reports of high levels of 'stress eating' and 'eating out of boredom,'
accompanied by 'higher food intake" more food options' and 'higher junk food
consumption.' The 'absence of access to facilities' and the 'loss of social
exercise' were the most common effects of exercise recorded in this study.
Anxiety, depression, fear, lack of motivation and lost social life have been the
most experienced. Although less frequently reported, some positive effects such
as 'longer' were mentioned in this study,' home-cooked food" modified exercise
routine," less stress'. Only when the diet and activity environments are changed
to be more tolerant of healthy eating and active living in a variety of conditions
would negative responses to lifestyle pressures such as social distance
lockdowns be attenuated. (Ramachandran et al.,2020)
Home Quarantine is a prime factor of changes in physical aspects. In
which, each people changes lifestyle during the quarantine enable to stay at
home. Things that are excessively made are done such as; different eating habits
that sometimes response for stress, time of rest. There were significant
relationships between predictor variables hours of sleep per night and physical
activity time on reported weight gain. By gaining weight, there were important
associations between hours of sleep per night predictor variables and physical
activity. Insufficient sleep, snacking after dinner, lack of dietary restraint, eating in
response to stress, and decreased physical activity are risk factors for weight
gain during self-quarantine. Those are instances that actually affect lifestyle, in
terms of physique. (Zachary et al.,2020).
