Brief Physical Activity Program to Increase Physical Fitness in Elementary School Children
July 25, 2014 updated by: Rebecca Hayes, Marshall University
The Effects of a Brief Physical Activity Program on Elementary School Students' Physical Fitness
The investigators hypothesized that the addition of 6 minutes of exercise during the school day would increase physical fitness in elementary school students as demonstrated by longer distances run in 2 minutes and a decrease in heart rate at the end of the exercise.
