Abstract
The purpose of this study is to increase awareness among physical education teachers by analyzing the trends in reaching exercise programs on the Google platform during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic. The exercise trends sought on the Google Trends platform between March 2020 and March 2021, when the pandemic was most intense, were examined. During this phase of the Covid-19 pandemic, it was observed that the most searched type of exercise on Google was strength training and fitness exercise. The previous exercise habits of individuals, the decisions taken by countries during the pandemic, and the technological methods applied may have been effective in searching for physical activities via Google. This study might contributes to physical education teachers in institutions that provide education for children and youths, to create the content of online or face-to-face exercise programs.
