Department of
Health and Physical Education K-12
“Regular physical activity in childhood and adolescence can help control weight and reduce fat, build healthy bones and muscles and improve cardiorespiratory endurance and muscle strength. By regularly participating in physical activity, young people can develop lifelong habits that can reduce their risk of dying prematurely, dying of heart disease, and developing diabetes, high blood pressure, and colon cancer. (Centers For Disease Control and Prevention).”
