Abstract. | This study aims to highlight the Educational Science Faculty Students physical fitness development level. The level of PF tends to track low to moderately from adolescence into adulthood and tends to degenerate gradually after adolescence. Results demonstrate that for two tests that assess coordination and flexibility students did good, for a single test that assess balance students did sufficient and for the other two test that assess cardiovascular endurance and abdominal strength students did very poor and poor. These findings highlight a low PF development. |
