Introduction to the literature review. The literature review aims to expand current and existing knowledge regarding physical activity in nursing and nursing students, as well as to analyze omissions. in the literature on physical activity among nursing students. An online search was carried out using databases such as Medline, Cinahl, ASSIA, EBSCO and Science Direct. The limitation of the literature period located between 2000 and 2010, using the key words: physical activity-physical exercise-nursing students-physical activity levels-students. Different combinations of the above keywords were used to enhance the analysis of the collected data and produced research papers and reports related to the topic. Literature generated includes: clinical, educational articles and a policy document on physical activity. Additionally, researchers' articles published from international sources outside the United Kingdom (UK) were considered, as their results could be compared to those in the UK. Additionally, literature based on activities, diet and other lifestyle issues among general nurses was also included to develop the knowledge base in this area. The search results generated approximately 20 articles that the researcher decided to review. Most of the literature generated focused on behavior and physical activity related to health promotion among nursing students and nurses. Although a few articles were explicitly based on physical activity among nursing students, the literature generated combined health behaviors such as physical activity, healthy eating, and physical fitness, primarily because these three indicators are relevant to a healthy lifestyle.Ana...... middle of article...main concerns of nursing students. In conclusion, the reviewed studies acknowledge various studies that analyzed PA and other health-related lifestyles among nursing students. Many of these studies conclude that it is even more vital for nursing students to improve their health behaviors in areas of health promotion such as PA. This report identified a gap in the literature regarding the amount of physical education recommended for nursing students. Since then, they have been the future healthcare providers and role models for the public. Therefore, by conducting this study, the results of this study will add knowledge to the literature and may help close the gap in nursing student participation in PA. This will justify the purpose of conducting this research. Here is the aim, theme and objectives of this study..
