- have stronger muscles and bones
- have a leaner body
- be less likely to become overweight
- decrease the risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes
- lower blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels

Besides enjoying the health benefits of regular exercise, kids who are physically fit sleep better. They're also better able to handle physical and emotional challenges — from running to catch a bus to studying for a test.
