The database includes 127 medical students from Latin America, containing sociodemographic variables, physical activity data (GPAQ), sedentary time, muscle-strengthening activity, and mental health measures using PHQ-9 and GAD-7. MET-minutes and WHO 2020 activity categories were derived, along with mental health severity classifications. All data were anonymized, validated, and cleaned following epidemiological standards, enabling descriptive, comparative, clustering, and regression analyses.
