Sports Are 80 Percent Mental:
The end of
2008 brings some discouraging news about our kids' brains and brawn.
Recent results from an international math and science test show United States
students are performing near the middle of the pack compared to other
countries, while their levels of obesity continue to climb. Historically,
these two trends were studied independently with plans of action
developed for each. However, several researchers and a new book have
been making the case for linking these two problems by showing the
effects of aerobic exercise not only on a student's fitness level but
also on their test scores.
