Effects of exercise intervention on the physical fitness of slightly retarded children
The authors selected 30 slightly retarded children ages 5~6 as their research subjects, implement 6-week exercise intervention on the experiment group, and revealed the following finding: an exercise intervention program can effectively improve the level of physical fitness of slightly retarded children, which means that exercise intervention can play a positive role in improving the physical shapes, functions and capacities of retarded children. The authors suggested that in physical activities done in special schools henceforward, exercise times, frequencies and intensities be designed in a scientific and rational way, so as to boost the development of physical health of retarded children.
