Abstract

Abstract

The overall development of adolescents is important for achieving the long-range goals for 2035 and the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. Since "physical and mental health" is fundamental for individual comprehensive development, it is necessary to pay attention to the physical and mental health of adolescents to promote their overall development. As far as the current situation is concerned, the development of the physical and mental health of Chinese adolescents shows positive improvement but still faces many challenges. The outbreak and spread of COVID-19 has changed the lifestyle, learning habits and social interactions of adolescents to a great extent, exerting negative impacts on physical and mental development. In the context of the normalization of epidemic prevention and control, it is necessary to further investigate the association between physical fitness with mental health, and to explore the various factors influencing this relationship. It is of great value to understand the importance of physical and mental health promotion of adolescents under the new conditions, in the maintenance and improvement of overall youth development at present and in the future.
