Abstract

This study is aimed at producing an increase of the assessment indicators for the level of physical training and for the sensory-motor ability of 18-22 year-old teenagers (students), by applying specific training programs to fight a sedentary life – aerobic gymnastics (girls) and bodybuilding (boys) . Sedentary, as well as stress are nowadays known as the „diseases of the 21st century", that generate most of the illnesses which shorten a person's life in the contemporary society, even though they cannot be medically defined as diseases. It is obvious that modern life encourages sedentary through its attractive offers of a comfortable lifestyle, but the striking decline of the amount of exercise leads in most of the cases to the occurrence or aggravation of diseases produced by the lack of physical movement, such as: joint diseases, cardiovascular diseases, spine conditions, respiratory diseases, obesity and overweight, digestive disorders, diabetes, cellulite, infertility, susceptibility to infections, high level of blood cholesterol and others.
It is alarming that the sedentary lifestyle has started affecting preschoolers too, due to their chaotic program, where they spend hours in front of the computer or the TV, not willing to play outside anymore, to interact with other children.
Therefore, it is of utmost importance to form the habit of doing physical activities every day, to have a varied diet, according to the amount of effort made in order to combat sedentary and obesity, that is associated most of the time with a sedentary lifestyle, but also with the occurrence of other disorders which destroy the bodies of millions of people.
