Abstract:
The findings of this study indicate there is no significant relationship between time spent watching TV and measured muscular fitness (pullups, pushups, and situps) in 262 9- and 10-yr.-old boys and girls. Apparently, frequent TV viewing is not detrimental to the muscular fitness of children this age.
