The
obesity incidence has increased in developed, developing and under
development countries and such fact cannot be only attributed to genetic
factors since the human genes have not modified lately. Habitual
physical activities among humans are complex characteristics which are
determined by the interaction of biological and psychosocial factors as
well as the physical environment. Among the younger population, physical
activity plays an important role in normal growth, maturation and
development. In fact, physical activity is a central concept in ensuring
physical fitness towards eliminating various risks of type II diabetes,
hypertension and other chronic diseases in progressively younger
individuals including children and adolescents of various sex groups.
Hence, this study will be useful in educating students, educators,
athletes, parents, government and the society at large on the benefit of
regular exercise in enhancing heart rate reaction and reducing the risk
of chronic metabolic and cardio respiratory diseases as regular
physical activity for long periods may protect the body against the
development of chronic diseases.
