How to make fitness a life long, positive part of yours and your childs life The statistics of Childhood Obesity, and overweight are STAGGERING and we all know the importance of daily exercise and an active lifestyle, but how much exercise should a child get and what kind? To answer this question, the first comprehensive exercise guidelines for kids were published by the National Association for Sport & Physical Education. The guidelines, illustrated much like the familiar Food Guide Pyramid, recommend a hierarchy of essential daily activities for children. The total time of activity should be at least 60 minutes per day, but ideally children should exercise up to several hours. As long as your children have adequate rest and are enjoying themselves, more is definitely better. So, its ESSENTIAL to have your children involved in activities that focus on keeping them moving, and arent overly susceptible to being boring quickly! The Black Belt Success program at Martial Arts and More is organized with this FIRMLY in mind! Our curriculum is segmented so that students are consistently exposed to new, and more and more exciting, motivating material, that never gets boring! Were VERY proud to say that this is the reason we have students whove been with us for MANY years, and who have made a fit healthily lifestyle, part of their every-day life!
