The causes for the deterioration of the constitution of teenagers are as follows: Bad dietary habit in modern life style, “staticized” life, students being overloaded with examination orientated education and homework, lacks in scholastic physical educa-tion, including too few funds and the serious lack of sports playgrounds, equipment and facilities, physical educa-tion courses being gradually “vacuumed”, and extracurricular physical exercising becoming merely a slogan. The state should exert its guiding functions, i.e. paying attention to the constitution of its citizens, guiding its citizens with institutions, deepening education reform, comprehensively boosting capacity education, and paying attention to scholastic physical education; the schools should strengthen scholastic physical education reform and promote sunlight like physical exercises, i.e. earnestly implementing the “health first” guiding ideology, and ensuring to open sufficient physical education courses, to teach physical education classes well, and to strengthen extracurricular physical exercising; the families and society should vigorously support, concern and jointly boost the health of teenagers.
