Abstract	Introducao: O sobrepeso e a obesidade tem sido um problema mundial, causado por fatores geneticos, habitos alimentares e ausencia de atividade fisica, que influencia nas mudancas fisicas, psicologicas e sociais, elevando cada vez mais o nivel de prevalencia de obesidade em criancas e adolescentes. Objetivo: Verificar a prevalencia de sobrepeso e obesidade e os fatores de risco associados em adolescentes. Materiais e Metodos: Foi realizado um estudo descritivo com um delineamento transversal, com 70 adolescentes de ambos os sexos, do ensino medio de uma escola publica da cidade de Tocantins-MG, no segundo semestre de 2016. Aplicou-se o Questionario Internacional de Atividade Fisica e para o calculo de sobrepeso e obesidade, foi utilizado o indice de massa corporal (IMC). A pressao arterial foi obtida por meio do metodo auscultatorio. Resultados: Do total de avaliados, 22,9% foram considerados com sobrepeso e 1,4% obesos. Com relacao ao nivel de atividade fisica, 15,7% dos avaliados foram considerados muito ativos e 27,1% ativos; entretanto 41,4% eram insuficientemente ativos A, 12,9% insuficientemente ativo B e 2,9% sedentarios. Nao houve diferenca estatistica entre sobrepeso/obesidade segundo o nivel de atividade fisica (p>0,05), assim como tambem nao houve associacao do sobrepeso/obesidade com a pressao arterial. No entanto, verificou-se uma associacao do sexo com o sobrepeso/obesidade, com os homens estando com um fator de protecao. Conclusao: A prevalencia de sobrepeso/obesidade encontrada no estudo foi considerada elevada, apresentando associacao apenas com o sexo.

Aim: To verify the prevalence of overweight and obesity and the associated risk factors in adolescents. Materials and Methods: A descriptive study with a cross-sectional design was carried out, with 70 adolescents of both sexes, of the high school of a public school in the city of Tocantins-MG, in the second half of 2016. Was used The International Physical Activity Questionnaire and the body mass index (BMI). Blood pressure was obtained through the auscultatory method. Results: Of the total, 22.9% were considered overweight and 1.4% obese. Regarding the level of physical activity, 15.7% of the evaluated ones were considered very active and 27.1% active; However 41.4% were insufficiently active A, 12.9% were insufficiently active B and 2.9% were sedentary. There was no statistical difference between overweight/obesity according to the level of physical activity (p> 0.05), nor was there any association between overweight/obesity and blood pressure. However, there was an association between gender and overweight/obesity, with men having a protective factor. Conclusion: The prevalence of overweight/obesity found in the study was considered high, presenting only association with gender.
