How the training goes
Children's fitness for kids involves active activities in a playful way. Thus, children dance and perform simple physical exercises to specially selected songs from cartoons or classical music.
Modern fitness centers offer many options for children's training. Here are the most popular ones:
- Logo aerobics. The essence of this direction is the combination of physical exercises with the recitation of poems and unrhymed phrases. The main goal of the classes is to develop coordination.
- Step by step. At such trainings, instructors teach children to walk correctly, develop the ability to maintain body balance, and develop fine motor skills.
- Fit Ball. Active physical exercises using large inflatable balls. Classes help develop the child’s musculoskeletal system.
- Yoga for children. Training has positive impact not only on physical development, but also on the emotional sphere of children.
- Children's training in the pool. Swimming with elements of aqua aerobics. An excellent choice for hyperactive guys.
Classes intended for children aged 3 to 7 years should not last longer than half an hour. Training is carried out in specially equipped rooms with good ventilation and the absence of traumatic objects.
The frequency of visits to the gym depends on the age of the baby:
- Children up to three years usually train no more than 1-2 times a week (30 minutes);
- 3-6 year olds can study three times during the same period of time;
- It is recommended that teenagers train the same amount, but the duration of their stay in gym increases from half an hour to 40-45 minutes.
Which form of fitness is best? Everything here is individual and depends on age. So, preschoolers are more suitable for dance and play activities, but for primary and secondary school students, more complex ones should be selected training programs, think through physical exercises that purposefully develop their musculoskeletal system.
Experts' opinions regarding strength training(i.e. weight training) for teenagers varies. But most of them agree on one thing: incorrect execution basic exercises(barbell squats,) can affect the health of the guys and significantly affect the subsequent formation of their musculoskeletal system.
It is better for girls and boys under the age of 16 to replace strength training training with own weight(horizontal bar, push-ups, fitness aerobics) and cardio exercises - running, jumping, etc.
A set of exercises for children at home
Let's consider a simple option home workout for a child:
- Starting position – feet stand shoulder width apart. The left (after – right) leg bent at the knee should be raised and touch it to the elbow of the right (after – left) hand. The exercise is repeated six times for each side.
- Hands on the waist, feet positioned wider than shoulder level. The right leg slowly bends at the knee, the body weight is transferred to it, while left leg stands on the toe. After returning the case to starting position The exercise is repeated on the other side. Number of repetitions: five times on the right and left legs.
- Starting position – lying on your stomach, arms extended forward. It is necessary to simultaneously tear off the upper and lower limbs, fix the position of the body at the maximum point of lifting for several seconds. Optimal quantity reps for this exercise- six times.
- Feet stand shoulder-width apart, hands on waist. With your feet turned outward and your back straight, you should sit on your toes and stretch your arms forward. Next you need to return to the starting position. The exercise is repeated six to eight times.
- Feet shoulder-width apart, back straight, in hands - gymnastic stick. You should step over one by one sports equipment each foot, while trying to keep the stick as close to the ends as possible. The optimal number of repetitions for this exercise is 10 times for each leg.

This form of training has nothing to do with professional sports, its goal is to strengthen the health of children and promote their comprehensive development (including psycho-emotional).
