Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The practical part will be complemented by meetings and lectures for the respondents and their parents (in the case of children) regarding the importance of physical activity, diet and physical fitness in the quality of life and its importance in various periods of ontogenetic development.
The study of a given group will be completed with a follow-up study 6 months after the end of the research project The ongoing research project will allow the development of physioprophylactic programs with elements of medical training to counteract lifestyle diseases.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Pediatric group
Pediatric group - children aged 0-3 years old, participating in physiotherapeutic visits carried out as part of the assessment of the child's psychomotor development
psychoprophylactic program aimed at improving physical fitness
Based on the assessment of physical fitness, a 12-week physiotherapy program will be carried out, adapted to the age and gender of the participants. The program will be carried out twice a week for 30 to 60 minutes (depending on the group). The basis of the program will be the implementation of exercises aimed at improving physical fitness, with particular emphasis on impaired motor skills. The classes will be conducted using functional training, resistance and stretching exercises, strengthening all muscle groups. In the case of children, special attention will be paid to the strength of the upper limbs, in the case of seniors, balance and coordination exercises will be introduced to improve time and space orientation. In all groups, the main goal is to improve functional fitness The project will include theoretical classes for parents, children and seniors on the importance of physical activity in the quality of life, in the process of maturation and aging.
assessment of body posture using the Kasperczyk method
The Kasperczyk method was used to assess body posture, including physiotherapeutic assessment in both standing and sitting positions. The symmetry of the head, shoulders, spine curvatures, knee joints and foot positioning were assessed. The symmetry of the head position was examined in all three planes and in all movements, i.e. flexion - extension, right turn - left turn, rotation and combined movements. The lateral curvatures of the spine (scoliosis) and their physiological curvatures, their deepening or shallowing in all sections of the spine, as well as the mobility of the spine in all physiological planes of movement were assessed. The position of the shoulder and hip girdle was assessed, as well as the position of the upper limbs at the level of the knees and feet. The mobility of the lower and upper limbs was examined.
Pediatric older group
Pediatric older group - Children aged 3-6 years recruited as part of pre-school education
psychoprophylactic program aimed at normalizing body weight through medical training
Based on the assessment of body weight and composition, a 12-week physiophylactic program will be carried out, adapted to the age and gender of the subjects. The program will be carried out twice a week for 30 to 60 minutes (depending on the group). The basis of the program will be the implementation of exercises that reduce fat mass, increase the flexibility and productivity of muscle mass. The classes will be conducted as part of medical training with a training load increasing to at least 85% of HR Max.
The project will include theoretical classes for parents, children and seniors on eating habits, a proper age-appropriate diet, diet changes depending on the subject's health condition and physical activity, and the impact of diet on the process of puberty, adulthood and aging.
