Physical education, or gym class, isn’t required for all high school students. In some schools, it isn’t

offered for some different reasons. But should high school students have physical education?

The answer

is certainly “yes”.

Today many people don’t do sports. But as is known to all, doing sports is very important for an adult.

Teaching

teens

the

importance

of

a

healthy

lifestyle

and

making

fitness

plans

now

can

help

teens

put

exercise in the first place as an adult.

High school isn’t that easy. Many students are under a lot of stress. Stress can be harmful to a student’s

studies and life. Doing sports can help them deal with

stress better, helping them live a

happier life at

school.

The

American

Heart

Association

says

that

10

million

kids

and

teens

suffer

from

obesity(

肥胖症

).

Teens should get 60 minutes of physical activity per day to control their weight and to help their bones get

stronger. The increase in activities

that don’t get teens to move around, such as video games and computer

activities, means many teens don’t get their required exercise.

Physical education classes act as a public

health measure to encourage activity and help teens have healthy weights.

Ina

ctivity increases teens’ risk of developing many diseases. An active lifestyle offers a good way of

protection

from

these

health

problems.

As

much

as

75

percent

of

health-care

spending

goes

toward

treating medical conditions that can behinderedby lifestyle changes, according to the American College of

Sports Medicine.

Fitness,

Sports

and

Nutrition

(PCFSN),

performed

five

hours

of

physical

activity

each
