The current global COVID-19 Pandemic has generated extensive sociopolitical changes among the entire world community. Although restrictions differ from country to country and are not enforced simultaneously, some regulations are mandatory worldwide, i.e., home confinement, closure of cultural and social events, remote work, online schooling, restricted movement, social distancing, or restricted Physical Activity (PA). In contrast, it is believed that one who does not routinely perform physical activity and daily exercises will fall ill. If exposed to COVID-19, they may suffer more severe. During the social distancing, several studies examined the limitations of daily physical and sport activities due to physical and social restrictions at all ages and conditions. However, no articles had summarized daily physical activity and exercises across ages and countries. Therefore, this study answered this gap and aimed to explore the policy of physical and social limitations related to physical activity and daily sports. It employed a systematic literature review method subjecting 21 selected articles published in 2020 and 2021 with the authors' inclusion criteria such as the articles containing the results of quantitative, qualitative research, mixed methods, or Meta-Analysis methods. The articles selected and summarized were related to physical activities and sports at various ages, including children, adolescents, young adults, and elderly across countries in specific populations in regard with health protocols when doing daily exercises. This study concluded that daily physical and sport activities must be carried out and prioritized to maintain health despite of being restricted due to the COVID-19 Pandemic as long as people comply with health protocols. © JPES.
