Author Name : Sandeep Sangwan, Jagat Singh

ABSTRACT In this manuscript, the authors have described the need & significance of health & physical education programs in India. At the moment, it looks like we’re losing the fight against inactivity and obesity in our young people. We are raising the most sedentary and unhealthy generation in Indian history: Its members may have the dubious distinction of being the first generation not to outlive their parents. Meaningful, high-quality health and physical education is one of the best strategies we have to reverse this trend. And, not only does good HPE increase the chances that our young people will live healthier, more productive lifespan, it pays off in the classroom, as well. Let’s look at some of the reasons we’re in our current physical condition, and how and why we can start changing attitudes, in both the younger and older populations, about healthy living and exercise.
