Results: In research only with the female public, it was found that eutrophic women, overweight and obese, are mostly dissatisfied with their current body image and presented distortion in the perception of their body images. In comparative surveys between genders, women showed a tendency to have a slight distortion of their current and ideal body image and analyzing body parts, both expressed a desire for change, especially women. And that women are more active than men in terms of weekly minutes of activity. And in surveys with only the male audience only, more than half are dissatisfied with their body image because most of them have shown a desire to have more volume of lean mass.
