Background and aim of study: The interest in the physical activity of human mental, physical and social health is an important project for the Kingdom's 2030 vision, as it is considered one of the most important elements of the quality of life, and there is no doubt that the high rate of lack of physical activity in the Kingdom increases the importance of this and makes it a vital and essential goal to maintain the physical health of society and individuals. The study aims to know the level of health status related to physical fitness and physical components for primary school students in the Qassim region. Methodology: Physical and physical measurements were made on all students in the second semester of the academic year 1438-1439. Results and conclusion: There are relationship between increase of weight in children and many diseases, health, psychological and social problems. Great attention must be given to the quantity and quality of food that children eat. The higher the percentage of fat, the less flexibility and that makes the child will be vulnerable to diseases and injuries.

Regular exercise is known to boost immunity, increase immune response to fight infection, as well as speeding up recovery times and healing processes. This study seeks to assess if exercising regularly pre-SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) and/or BMI status has an effect on recovery time. A total of 215 people infected with COVD-19 from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia took part in this study (age 36±16 years, mass 72±15 kg, stature 166±11 cm). Only 10 patients were physically active and fulfil WHO physical activity requirement (Age 30±7 years, Mass 77±9 kg, Stature 176±1 cm). There was a significant difference in recovery time between active and inactive patients (P = 0.00) with active patients’ recovery 2.7 times faster than inactive patients. Active patients showed a lower BMI level (p = 0.043). Anthropometric measurement characteristics and the fitness level could be used in decision making scenarios for the estimation of the risk of complications in patients with COVID-19. Novelty: Covid-19 physical active patients shows faster recovery time. Active patients recorded a BMI of over 25kg/m ² , recovered faster than those inactive patients with similar BMI’s.

It is well established that physical inactivity is associated with excess weight and adverse health outcomes in middle eastern women. The aim of this study is to assess the level of inactivity among female students at al-Qassim University, KSA. Healthy 127 female students from Al-Qassim university participated in this study (Age 20±1 year, Mass 55.63±9.91 kg, Stature 157.18±5.25 cm). Smart wristband bracelet was used to track daily step counts, walking distance, level of activity, amount of sleep, resting heart rate and the daily number of calories burned. There was a significant difference between active and inactive female participants (P<0.005). Active participants steps counts were 3.5 times higher than inactive participants. The level of activity has affected positively the resting heart rate and sleeping hours on active females (p=0.00, sleeping 8.6±2.6 vs 7.6±3.6). For active participants twice the daily calories where burned compared to the inactive participation group (p=0.00). the modernised life in the KSA has had a direct impact of the level of activity among female participants. This study has shown that neither the active or inactive groups that participated in this study reach the minimum daily recommend level of exercise advocated by the WHO.,
