Abstract

The article is written to provide accurate and thorough information regarding the present level of physical fitness among secondary students in Hanoi suburbs. The researcher has employed conventional scientific research methods in the field of physical education to determine 12 criteria to assess the physical fitness of secondary school students in the suburbs of Hanoi through 03 factors: morphological traits (4 criteria), physical strength (7 criteria), and physical functions (1 criterion). In terms of morphological indicators, stamina, and agility, the results show that the students in Hanoi suburbs appear healthier than other Vietnamese students of the same age and sex in 2001; they are superior in speed and agility at some ages, and nearly equivalent in endurance and physical functions. This provides the foundation for suggesting strategies to increase the efficacy of physical education in today's schools.
