How Fit Are Young Teens?

 

Studies show that kids or young teens aren't getting enough exercise. This may be caused by all of the modern day technology that young teens in America have like I Pads,I Phones,Playstations,and the X Box .What causes this problem? The things that cause this is when teens don't get their hour of exercise. What also causes this is when schools cut part of recess for learning or when teens over eat. Studies show that schools that have longer recesses might have more students passing. This problem works when young teens eat way to much fast food and don't work it off. It also works when teens have a lack of exercise and unhealthy habits.The points of view on this is the kids who think their hygene isn't important , and schools point of view that time at school should be spent learning not playing.This is changing over time when more technology comes out and kids want to stay indoors and unactive.Teens should make sure they get enough exercise and have healthy eating habits. I asked a PE coach on this and she said kids arent getting enough excercise because yhe dont eat right and they dont exercise. She thinks our day should be extended for 20 minutes so kids can get more recess put into their day and potintaly get their hour of play at school.
