Doctors say that children and teenagers should spend at least one hour a day performing some physical activity. It is recommended that they should spend at least two hours a week on physical exercises and school sport, both during the school day and after school.

If this activity is not too exhaustive, it’s quite OK; however, it should be systematic.

It’s necessary to make fitness a part of your daily programme to improve bone health, muscle strength and flexibility. Exercises that are «weight-bearing» (in other words, where you are on your feet, rather than in water or on a bike) help build strong bones.
