Without national fitness
, there would be no comprehensive well-off

Fitness for the whole people, health for the whole people, and a well-off society in an all-round way, the three rely on and support each other.
National fitness is a way and a way to achieve national health, an important manifestation of national health, and a powerful way to promote national health.
National health is the purpose and orientation of national fitness, and is the starting point and goal of the national fitness strategy.
National fitness and national health are internalized in the goal of a comprehensive well-off society, and together constitute an important support for achieving a comprehensive well-off society.
Since the reform and opening up, especially since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the party and the government have attached great importance to sports work, promoted the reform and development of sports, and extensively carried out national fitness programs.

As the shooting champion at the second National Games in 1965, He Qinglei, 76 this year, talked about surroundings. The changes in national fitness facilities are filled with emotion.
"At that time, there was no professional shooting clothes. In order to avoid the impact of heartbeat on shooting accuracy, we would wear cotton-padded clothes for training regardless of summer or winter. We practiced shooting for 8 hours a day. Except for lunch and a short rest, we were motionless. It is common for the arms to be tightened with straps. In the evening, we have to run 10 kilometers to practice our physical fitness."
He Qinglei, who has faded out of the sports circle for many years, still maintains good exercise habits and goes to the fitness corridor along the Weihe River in Baoji, Shaanxi to exercise almost every day.

National fitness integrated into daily life
The "Proposals of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Formulating the Fourteenth Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development and Long-Term Goals for 2035" adopted by the Fifth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee clearly stated that by 2035, "build a strong sports country and a healthy China".

"Document 46" clearly stated that it is necessary to actively expand the supply of sports products and services, promote the sports industry to become an important force in economic transformation and upgrading, and promote the overall development of mass sports and competitive sports. my country's mass sports ushered in a period of rapid development.
With the support of national policies, my country's mass sports has not only continued to increase in the number of participants, but also in rich and diverse forms.
From various forms of urban and rural sports games to nationwide mass sports events, mass sports shows a spurt of growth.
Now, whether it is "outdoor" or "at home", the concept and consciousness of national fitness have been integrated into people's daily life.

The people's expectations for a better life are constantly escalating.

In recent years, my country has made great achievements in the construction of a public service system for national fitness.
However, compared with the people’s expectations for a better life, there is still a certain gap-there is a contradiction between the supply of sports services and the people’s ever-increasing individual and diversified needs, the imbalance of national fitness infrastructure among different regions, The problem of insufficient development still exists.
