Abstract

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, school-aged kids are not engaging in normal physical activities per usual, such as physical education class and team sports. This paper addresses the health concerns and community perspectives of decreased physical activity in pre teens and teens during this pandemic. Further, it provides recommendations to stay active for 60 minutes a day of moderate to vigorous exercise.
