This study was carried out to investigate the sort of food offered to their schoolchildren and their potential for physical fitness. Data was gathered from both private and public-school students. The accepted questionnaire was used to assess the specified variables of height, weight, endurance, speed, strength, and food consumption. To compare boysÂ’ and girls' physical fitness and food consumption, an independent t-test was used. The guys had much more strength, agility, and speed than the schoolgirls, according to the results. Schoolgirls, on the other hand, performed much better in terms of diet selection and physical activity than schoolboys. It was discovered that girls had better eat habits than boys, while guys have superior physical condition. It is proposed that both boys and girls improve their physical fitness, and that physical exercises be made mandatory for participation. Food consumption, physical activity engagement, and physical fitness must all be monitored in schools.
Key words: physical fitness, food intake, physical activities, schoolboys, school girls.
