Abstract:
Physical inactivity is closely related to the continuous decline of physical fitness, the increasingly severe obesity, myopia and other health problems, which has become a global public health issue. Physical activity promotion of children and adolescents is a common concern in sports science and public health. However, health outcomeoriented physical activity promotion model has failed to achieve expected results. Based on the concept of physical literacy, components of physical literacy, and direct and indirect evidence, this paper expounds the relationship between physical literacy and physical activity promotion of children and adolescents, and reveals the implication of physical literacy to physical activity promotion of children and adolescents. It also points out that more empirical studies are needed in the future, including the development of physical literacy assessment tools for children and adolescents of different ages and physical conditions in China; more longitudinal studies on the relationship between physical literacy, physical activity participation and health; the direct effect of physical literacy intervention on physical activity behavior and health outcomes. Promotion of physical literacy is an important element for physical activity participation and physical fitness of children and adolescents, and to reduce the public health burden caused by physical inactivity.
