Physical Activity and Health

The Activities and Assessment Manual provides a practical framework for students to individually apply the concepts outlined in Physical Activity and Health: An Interactive Approach, Third Edition. An important step in applying this knowledge is starting with a basline assessment of your current health, fitness status, and daily habits. To assist, the author has put together more than 70 science-based health and fitness activities and assessments that examine each students' current status and measure what he or she is doing now. Completing each activity and assessment will help students identify the aspects of their personal behavior that with modification can improve their overall health.
