The study is based on the body mass index of students between the ages of 10 and 14. The body mass index of5043 students was tested in order to bring out the fact that the degree of obesity is not as high as health representatives claim. By means of this research we found that a percentage of 49% of the tested children were normal weight and only 2.31% were obese. The causes of obesity in these subjects may be metabolic disorders.

An exploratory and comparative assessment of the tourist circulation at the level of some countries of the South-Eastern European union in the current pandemic context

The coronavirus epidemic (COVID19) has affected the global economy and the services sector. Quarantine measures related to travel restrictions have led to an unprecedented decline in the tourism industry with repercussions on tourism service providers, transport companies and state budgets. Travel is necessary for tourism, therefore, any factor that prevents travel can have a profound impact on the tourism industry. In the current pandemic context, the forecast in the field of tourist travel has played an important role in supporting the revival of this sector. In this study, econometric and interpretive methods were combined to predict the demand. In this study we approached a prediction model that is based on the seasonal stationary and adjustment of observed and FFT data. Experimental results show that the proposed prediction model has demonstrated a good medium-term forecast and can be used successfully in short and medium periods of time. For a certification of the exploratory evaluation of tourism forecasts there were comparatively analyzed the results obtained for three countries in south-eastern Central Europe, countries with similar natural and anthropic tourist resources (Bulgaria, Croatia and Romania)

Study regarding the use of movement games in order to improve coordination abilities in primary school pupils

The purpose of the research, performed during the school year 2015 – 2016, was to observe the role of movement games during the PE class, carried out with primary school pupils. The aim of the present paper is to present the way in which we influenced the coordination skill manifestation indicators so that they are suited to the pupils’ age possibilities. The games were combined and we used two games during each practical PE class. In order to achieve this, we changed the working method at the structure level of the lesson. Thus, in the second part of the lesson, which includes types of walking and running in order to engage the body in the effort, we used movement games. As an assessment test, we used the trial “Throw at a vertical target”. This trial tests the coordination skill (the dexterity) within the school assessment system. The results obtained in the trials were statistically processed by means of the SPSS 23.0 program. The results indicated a significant progress for the group of girls and an insignificant progress for the groups of boys

Study on learning acrobatic elements with groups of girls using programmed instruction in gymnasium

This paper presents a part of an extensive research which was conducted with students of class VI in secondary school. In this research were developed several learning strategies with acrobatic elements that are specified in the curriculum for this age level. The paper aims to outline the results achieved in the experiment groups of girls. Also, the paper presents the model proposed for the realization of teaching strategies based on programmed instruction method. Three of acrobatic elements whom were applied these teaching strategies were common elements (performed by girls and boys) and one had a character specific to girls. Through the results obtained we can say that the effectiveness of applied strategies was proved by practice, thus achieving the learning unit objectives

Study regarding the use of physical exercise in order to prevent school-age children from being overweight

In the present study, we aimed at applying a physical training program with simple exercises, focused on two aspects: on the one hand, we intended to lower body mass index and, on the other hand, to increase the level of physical fitness. We considered that both directions converge towards the formation of a healthy lifestyle

Study regarding the use of gymnastics - related alternative methods during the physical education class

The improvement of motor qualities and skills represents the main concern of the Physical Education lesson. In the present paper we present a general motor exercise training routine, designed as an alternative to the traditional approach of the PE lessons. The routine was divided into three components, namely a cross fit exercise routine, an aerobics routine and an acrosport routine. This routine was implemented in the 5th grade syllabus. The test group was represented by 207 pupils, out of which 114 girls (55.07%) and 93 boys (44.93%). Most participants came from rural areas (66.18%) and 33.82% came from urban areas. The routine was implemented during the first semester of the current school year (2017-2018) in one of the two compulsory lessons. The topics from the traditional PE lesson were replaced by the proposed routines and used alternatively. The assessment consisted of 4 tests from the national assessment system. The results showed significant progress obtained in the final tests for all the 4 trials used (p < 0,001)

An investigation into the neuromuscular control at the level of the upper limbs of junior handball girls players

In this paper we want to present the development of upper limb muscle control in sportswomen handball. Thus at the beginning and end of championship players girls were tested with one MOVE 1 DU device type, then centralized data obtained and analyzed statistically. Handball players’ were 10 girls subjected search with the average age of 12.5 years, the average height of 165.5 cm. and an average weight of 57.7 kg. By centralizing data obtained we have seen an increase in upper limb neuromuscular control in final testing of statistically p <.05. Statistical analysis confirms the hypothesis that the means to improve neuromuscular control if applied properly and psychomotor functional somatic features specific age increases the competitive performance
