Introduction: This study investigates smoking habits and physical activity levels among students at the Faculty of Health Studies, University of Rijeka. Given the early onset of smoking in Croatia and its potential health risks, understanding these habits among future healthcare professionals is crucial. Materials and Methods: The study included 80 students, with 48% enrolled in Physiotherapy, 31% in Nursing, and the remainder in Midwifery and Radiological Technology. Data on smoking habits and physical activity levels were collected using a questionnaire, including the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) for activity assessment. Results: A significant majority (79%) of students reported smoking before enrolling in the university, with cigarettes being the most common product (61%), followed by e-cigarettes (31%). Daily cigarette consumption varied, with 75% of smokers consuming up to 10 cigarettes, and only 4% smoking more than 20 cigarettes per day. Contrary to the hypothesis, 66% of students who smoked engaged in high levels of physical activity, with no significant difference between male and female smokers. Conclusion: The findings reveal a concerning prevalence of smoking among health studies students, with a substantial number also engaging in regular physical activity. These results challenge the assumption that smoking is associated with lower physical activity levels. However, the study's limitations, including a small sample size and focus on a single institution, suggest that further research is needed to generalize these findings and to explore the complex relationship between smoking and physical activity among young adults.
