Abstract: Labor that lasts too long can increase the risk of complications for the mother and fetus, but this risk can be minimized through physical activity which can affect the body's aerobic and cardiorespiratory capabilities, resulting in a maximum increase in maximum oxygen intake which can then increase energy supply. This energy supply is important to support myometrial muscle contractions during labor, especially in the early stages. This research aims to determine the relationship between physical activity and the duration of the active phase of first stage of labor in primiparous mothers.
