The objective of the study was to determine the relationship between physical activity, work stress and nutritional status with cardiovascular risk in a sample of 300 police officers from an Operative Unit, Lima 2020. The research was descriptive correlational, quantitative approach, type basic, and non-experimental design. The physical activity questionnaires (GPAQ) and the McCreary & Thompson work stress questionnaire were applied, the nutritional status was evaluated with the body mass index (BMI) and cardiovascular risk with the abdominal perimeter (PAB). It was analyzed with the statistical program SPSS version 25, using frequency tables and Spearman's correlation test. The results showed that 86% performed a high level of physical activity; 69.67% did not show police work stress; 59.33% overweight, 28.67% obesity; 40.67% showed increased cardiovascular risk and 22.67% high risk. There is a relationship between nutritional status and cardiovascular risk (Rho=0.63; p=0.033), there is a relationship between organizational work stress and cardiovascular risk (Rho=0.156; p=0.007). There is no significant relationship between physical activity, work stress and cardiovascular risk (Rho=0.92; p=0.058), (Rho=0.218; p=0.055). Physical activity at work is not related to cardiovascular risk (Rho=0.022, p>0.05). concluded that there is a non-significant relationship between physical activity, work stress and nutritional status with cardiovascular risk.
