Objective: to evaluate the effect of the type of physical activity on the caloric expenditure of elderly. Materials and methods: the sample was 121 older adults of both sexes who attend the EsSalud Primary Care Center (CAP) III. The variables that were taken into account for the study were: caloric expenditure, physical activity and nutritional status. A descriptive-correlational analysis (Chi-square and ANOVA) and multiple linear regression were used. Results: when evaluating the nutritional status of the patients, according to the Mini-Nutritional Assessment test, 83.9% were normal and 16.1% showed a low risk of malnutrition. The Body Mass Index (BMI) was normal (36.4%) and overweight (36.4%). Practicing more hours per week of dance (R2=0...
