“…According to WHO recommendations, young people (5-17 years old) need at least 60 minutes of sustained activity per day, and adults (18-64 years old) need 150 minutes of moderate activity per day (WHO, 2017a;WHO, 2017b). Unfortunately for pupils in the studied group, such an answer appears only in 19.30% of situations, a result also present in other studies carried out on adolescents from a high school in the county of Iasi (15.8%) who were not in the final year of high school (Albu, Onose, Negrea, Crăcană, & Hodorcă, 2015).…”

It is necessary to assess the way students spend their free time in the final years of high school due to the poor results that have appeared recently in the baccalaureate exams. The study was carried out using a group of 202 students from two high schools in the Romanian county of Botoșani. The young people filled in a questionnaire with questions about leisure activities and social relationships. The results were processed using Pearson's chi-squared test. The time allocated daily for physical activity is mostly 15-30 minutes (23.76%). The time spent watching television programs is mostly 0.5-1 hours (35.64%). Most pupils (44.05%) do not spend free time on the computer. In the majority of cases (32.4%) pupils have "one" true friend. In their free time, they go out, mostly 2-3 evenings per week (28.71%), but there are also 31.68% negative answers. Parents are less concerned about school activity ("never" answers -34.15%) and are also less concerned with the way their children spend their free time ("never" answers -34.65%). There is a series of situations that guide us towards a modest concern for the future, both from pupils and their parents.

Introduction: it is necessary to assess the way students spend their free time in the final years of high school due to the poor results that have appeared recently in the baccalaureate exams. Methods: the study was carried out using a group of 202 students from the 11th and 12th grades from a National College (117 pupils) and a High School (85 pupils) from the city of Dorohoi, Botosani County. The young people filled in a questionnaire with questions about leisure activities and social relationships. The results were processed using Pearson's chi-squared test. Results and discussions: The time allocated daily for physical activity is mostly 15-30 minutes (23.76%) with significant differences between the two schools (p˂0.05). The time spent watching TV is mostly 0.5-1 hours (35.64%) with insignificant differences between grades (p>0.05). Most students (44.05%) do not sit at the computer, the calculated differences being statistically insignificant (p>0.05). When looking at social relationships we take into account friends, where in the majority of cases (32.4%) students have „one” true friend. This is a usual result because in this period of the adolescent's life the role the group of friends plays decreases, with significant differences between school years (p˂0.05). In their free time, they go out into town, mostly 2-3 evenings per week (28.71%), but there are also 31.68% negative answers. Parents are less concerned about school activity (“never” answers – 34.15%) with significant differences between grades (p˂0.01). Parents are also less concerned with the way their children spend their free time (“never” answers – 34.65%) with significant differences between school years (p˂0.05). Conclusions: there is a series of situations that guide us towards a modest concern for the future, both from students and their parents.

“…Croatia, emphasizing that, in Zagreb, 39.6% men and 43.6% women had a sedentary lifestyle. In Romania, it is noticed that people are physically inactive from early ages, and the habit of being sedentary tends to extend throughout their lifetime (Albu et al, 2016;Neagu, 2016). Studies reveal that most adults often spend their leisure time watching TV, rented movies, listening to music (Rada, 2017), while children are attracted to electronic devices and playing computer games.…”

This paper aims to emphasize the risks of obesity and physical inactivity, knowing that an unhealthy lifestyle based on sedentariness, a chaotic rhythm of work programmes and sleeping hours, and inappropriate food ingestion in terms of quality and regularity of meals is a major factor in disturbing the individual's well-being. Evidence shows that physical activity can be used as a preventive measure or a secondary care standard for chronic health issues related to obesity, such as cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus, colon cancer and stroke. Recent studies are focused on the efficiency of different obesity management strategies in order to avoid obesity-related comorbidities. Physical activity fosters the mental and functional balance of the individual, ensures good body weight control, improves and contributes to maintaining the health status, satisfies the need for movement, responds to the need for group affiliation and social interaction, and provides contexts for personal communication. Despite the people's awareness of the statistics, their involvement in physical activity is low. Physical exercise programmes should be approached as medical prescriptions for an optimal state of health, being a medicine with no negative effect if properly applied, but with many health benefits. Changes in a person's lifestyle related to physical exercise, diet and harmful leisure result from the congruence of several political, economic, ideological and educational factors.
