Abstract

Currently, adolescent health is facing major challenges such as spinal curvature, myopia, and obesity. The “Integration of Health and Physical Education” is vigorously advocates for the use of scientific exercise methods to intervene in adolescent health, advancing the health frontiers for adolescents. Wuji ball, as an emerging national fitness sport, has been incorporated into the curriculum of many universities, including Peking University and the University of Science and Technology of China. This study points out the difficulties faced in the physical and health development of adolescents and conducts an in-depth analysis of the numerous benefits of wuji ball for the physical and mental development of adolescents and the inheritance of traditional Chinese culture. From the perspective of promoting adolescent health, it emphasizes the multiple important roles that schools play in this regard, discussing the necessity and practical value of introducing wuji ball into campuses. In addition, drawing from effective models in provinces such as Jiangsu and Shandong, a series of necessary measures and strategies for implementing wuji ball into campuses are proposed. It is believed that wuji ball holds significant importance for the healthy growth of adolescents and has profound implications for achieving the goal of a healthy China strategy.
