- Abstract
The main principle of the healthy life style is not to harm your health. The good habits and physical activities provide welfare, a good level of working capacity, a pleasant life for long. The healthy life style is related to physical activity, a balanced moderate diet mode, hardening procedures, etc. The level of knowledge and education is very important for understanding the benefit of active physical exercises and a healthy mode of life. Physically active persons keep a balanced adequate diet, do not have bad habits, they rarely become ill and their working capacity is high. The teacher's profession demands from the person not only the knowledge and pedagogical skills but also a good level of physical endurance, physical preparedness and physical development. It is very important that the teacher keeps to the healthy mode of life and has no bad habits. There are three student groups of the Sports and Biology speciality which take part in our investigation. The respondent group includes 27 persons. We have provided a questionnaire and after that we evaluate the data of physical activity. There are 20 positions in the questionnaire. We keep the score and before that divided all the respondents into four groups according to their physical activity level: a high level, a good level, a moderate level and a low level. The purpose of our research was to analyse and evaluate the level of physical activity of the students, the future sports and biology teachers.
