“…Being physically fit means contributing to children's overall development and health 1 . As PA is a potentially modifiable lifestyle behavior, it is of interest to know the nature of the relationship of PA with physical fitness and body composition 3,45 . The results of the present study indicate that PA patterns at kindergarten age have longitudinal impact, thus leaving important imprints to children's body composition and fitness measures at school age.…”

Physical activity (PA) and physical fitness are essential for normal growth, development and general health in childhood, and are important mediators of the enhancement of health-related quality of life and cognition. 1 Childhood obesity is increasing in prevalence all over the world, 2 and as related to accompanying psychological and cardiorespiratory complications, has become a major health, psychosocial, and economic concern. 3 It has been proposed that a high level of physical fitness in childhood and adolescence is associated with lower risks of future overweight, fatness, and metabolic syndrome. 4 Physical fitness has been considered to counteract some of the adverse effects of adiposity on health. 5 Observing associations of PA and physical fitness with body composition during childhood would explain the determinants of PA and physical fitness in preadolescence. Accompanying the transition from early to middle childhood are substantial changes in children's educational and recreational circumstances which may affect PA levels. 6,7 It is likely that the preschool environment influences the

“…Additionally, varied amounts of PA create varied health outcomes while following the guidelines (Piercy et al, 2018). However, some schools do not implement this policy; therefore, a strategy like enough PA time improves implementation and increases PA among students (Nathan et al, 2018), body composition, mental health, and well-being (Riso & Jürimäe, 2018) as long as it is age-appropriate (Liu et al, 2020).…”

Physical education (PE) develops students’ motor skills, knowledge, and behaviors for active living. As such, individuals need to participate in various physical activities (PA) which contribute to a healthy lifestyle. But many PE programs fail to bring the actual value of a lifetime PA and fitness. Therefore, there should be extended scientific research that promotes participation level as a health intervention that will promote health and wellness. Through this, an exploratory- sequential mixed method inquiry was utilized to gather insights of senior high school PE teachers towards the development of physical activity plan (PAP). Likewise, the remaining senior high school PE teachers in the province assessed the degree of alignment of the PAP in the most essential learning competencies in PE, and the degree of the practical application of the developed PAP in PE instruction. The qualitative results summarized the general ideas of PE teachers regarding the PAP. They have specific suggestions on what topics, PA, and classroom assessment tools should be included in the plan related to the competencies in PE 1, PE 2, PE 3, and PE 4. As such, a series of performance rubrics have been attached to the plan. Moreover, the quantitative results revealed that the developed PAP has a high degree of alignment with the current competencies in the senior high school PE curriculum. Likewise, the developed PAP has a high degree of practical application in PE instruction. Integrating the data in the two phases of the data collection, showed that the developed PAP can be implemented in the senior high school PE curriculum. As such, the PAP may be utilized as the baseline for PE teachers for implementation. Moreover, future researchers may address the limitations of the conducted study.

“…Over the last 30 years, childhood obesity has reached epidemic proportions worldwide (Abarca-Gómez et al, 2017;WHO, 2018). Therefore, the importance of encouraging children to remain physically active is increasing (Reisberg et al, 2020;Riso & Jürimäe, 2018). Physical activity (PA) and physical fitness (PF) are significant instruments for enhancing the quality of life for people with health conditions as well as the cognitive aspect of development in children (Donnelly et al, 2016).…”

This systematic review aimed to investigate the effect of school-based physical activity interventions on physical fitness and psychological responses in children and young people. Studies were conducted from Web of Science, Scopus and PubMed databases between 1 January 2017 and 1 December 2022 according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) checklist. For the research to be conducted in the databases, "School-Based Intervention", "physical fitness ", "Psychology", School-based intervention, physical fitness and psychological responses were used in the title and abstract. The database review revealed seventy-four (74) studies. However, after eliminating seventeen (17) duplicate studies, fifty-five (57) studies remained. Subsequently, seventeen (17) studies were eliminated after reviewing the abstracts. After forty (40) studies were thoroughly analysed, eighteen (18) publications not involving psychological factors, five (5) publications involving research methods and six (6) review studies were excluded. The remaining eleven (11) studies were used after review. The results of the present systematic review showed that school-based physical activity interventions contribute positively to children's physical fitness and psychological health while ensuring a healthy life for years to come.
