Physical activity is more than just a game—it’s a vital tool for building confidence, resilience, and mental well-being in young people. On a recent episode of Fit Kids Conversations, University of Arizona Head Football Coach Brent Brennan, a proud member of the Fit Kids advisory board, shared his belief in the power of exercise to help kids “navigate their day to day”.
He points out a troubling trend: a decline in physical education participation as well as a youth sports system that often leaves out kids who need support the most. Whether you’re a parent, coach, educator, or just care about kids’ well-being, this episode offers eye-opening insights and practical solutions to help kids move more, feel better, and thrive.
