Abstract

Since ancient times and throughout time, man has had the need to move and test his physical abilities to survive. Nowadays, due to technological development and scientific advances, humans have limited all physical activity to a minimum. to the point of carrying out most of your activities without having to move or simply by pressing a button. This problem is such that diseases caused by low physical activity generally triggered in adulthood are increasingly seen in youth and childhood, for example sedentary lifestyle, type II diabetes and heart conditions among others. It is therefore necessary to formulate a program aimed at combating this problem in schoolchildren between the ages of 13 and 17 in cycle four (8th and 9th grade) in the public educational institutions of Bogotá based on the development of physical abilities through activities. innovative activities such as core (stabilization of the lumbo-pelvic region), step, aquagym, pilates, tae bo, pre-sports and intercourse competition activities
and complemented with the development of nutrition and health promotion workshops through physical activity. All of this seeks to establish healthy living habits in the young people of Bogotá and that in turn allow them to be replicated at the family, local and district level.
