ABSTRACT
Introduction:
The quality of Chinese college students’ physical fitness has declined. This fact has concerned the policy developed to optimize the college student system and national physical fitness, seeking innovative solutions to this new challenging scenario.
Objective:
Analyze the current fitness status of college students by gender.
Methods:
A questionnaire was designed to survey the current situation. A total of 1546 valid questionnaires were obtained, including 822 male and 724 female college students. The results of the questionnaires were sorted, optimized, and statistically analyzed.
Results:
The physical fitness of college students is not in their optimal values; the proportion of good and excellent is low; the normal BMI of female students is 87.526%, slightly higher than 76.674% of male students; the overweight BMI of male students is 13.787%, slightly higher than 8.058% of female students. In college students’ total physical health score, the failed male students accounted for 12.48%, and the female students 7.58%. Only 77.07% of male and 78.75% of female participants passed; the fraction of males with a good grade was 10.31%, and females were 11.7%; only 0.12% of males and 1.95% of females achieved excellent grades.
Conclusion:
University professors should design a targeted scientific training plan according to the student's physical condition. The training should combine sports motivation with psychological demands and promote students’ enthusiasm for the sport. University students should also be encouraged to choose some exercise to maintain active participation, improving the overall health quality of Chinese university students.
