dc.description.abstract | In 1986, the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sport released results showing that American youth were not in good physical condition and that schools needed to reemphasize physical education. Within the last 15 years, researchers
have obtained reliable data on the effects of physical exercise and activity on the physiological functions (including cardiorespiratory fitness) of children. As a result, basic guidelines for exercise and fitness have been developed
in the following areas: exercise prescription, alternative fitness activities (walking and aerobics), considerations for teachers
and principals, and testing. In this article, we discuss those guidelines and some of the research on which they are based. | en_US |
