Abstract: In December 2019, 27 cases of pneumonia were reported in Wuhan. In 2020, the caus- 15 ative agent was identified as a virus called SARS-CoV-2. The disease was called 'coronavirus dis- 16 ease 2019' (COVID-19) and was determined a Public Health Emergency. The main measures taken 17 included a state of lockdown. The aim of this study was to assess how the unhealthy lifestyles that 18 ensued influenced different parameters. 19 A prospective study was carried out on 6236 workers in a Spanish population between March 20 2019 and March 2021. Anthropometric, clinical, and analytical measurements were performed, 21 revealing differences in the mean values of anthropometric and clinical parameters before and 22 after lockdown due to the pandemic: increased body weight (41.1 ± 9.9 - 43.1 ± 9.9), BMI 23 (25.1 ± 4.7 - 25.9 ± 4.7), and percentage of body fat(24.5 ± 9.1 - 26.9 ± 8.8); higher total 24 cholesterol levels, with a statistically significantincrease in LDL levels and a reduction in HDL; and 25 worse glucose levels (90.5 ± 16.4 - 95.4 ± 15.8). Lockdown can be concluded to have had a 26 negative effect on health parameters in both sexes in all age ranges, causing a worsening of car- 27 diovascular risk factors
