IDENTIFYING THE INTENSITY OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY IN PHYSICAL EDUCATION AT SECONDARY SCHOOL DURING COVID-19

The current pandemic situation generated by COVID-19 demands the use of a mask to practise physical activity. The use of a mask requires that the intensity of such activity is not high. The Physical Education subject is essential to know how to determine the intensity of physical activity. The aim of this proposal is to teach students to identify the intensity of physical activity through the perception of their effort. This practical proposal, aimed at third-year secondary education students, consists of five activities to be carried out in eleven sessions. In conclusion, it is expected that students become aware of their own possibilities when facing physical activities with an adequate intensity. This ability to perceive and discriminate between intensities will help them to approach physical activity with a positive and healthy attitude.
