According to the law of physical development of adolescents, 6-14 years old is a sensitive period for the development of endurance quality. This period of exercise is mainly based on endurance exercise. Generally speaking, after children learn to walk independently, they can exercise endurance. According to research, the fastest runners in the world for children under the age of 14 can run a marathon in less than 3 hours. Therefore, the training of endurance quality is conducive to the growth and development of children, enabling them to reach a higher level of exercise. However, minors under the age of 14 should not do strength training too early, because the development of the human cardiovascular system cannot be completed until after the age of 14. If you train too much strength before the age of 14, it is easy to cause damage to the cardiovascular system and affect the future. unfavorable growth and development.

14-28 years old is a special age group because this is the growth and development period of the human body. The skeletal and muscular system of the entire body is in the process of gradual strengthening. At this time, if the body is given corresponding benign stimulation, the growth and development of the human body will be faster, and the strength will become stronger and stronger. Therefore, for young athletes at this stage, there is no need to limit exercise.
