Summary

A tool that could be useful to eliminate the barriers of not practicing physical activity can be immersive virtual reality, which is characterized by being a technique where a person, through the use of a screen mounted on the head, receives images, sounds and tactile sensations of a simulated world.

In the area of physical exercise, evidence places immersive virtual reality as a tool that encourages healthy behaviors and the practice of physical activity, increasing adherence to exercise in the long term. In addition to the fact that performing physical activity by this means generates a high level of enjoyment in the participants, so if the use of this technology generates enjoyment in those who use it and contributes to complying with the recommendations of physical activity, it is logical to think that a physical exercise program executed through immersive virtual reality could contribute to improving parameters related to people's health. Therefore, the objective of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate the effect of a physical exercise program carried out through immersive virtual reality on health-related variables.
