Trump Revives Presidential Fitness Test in Schools
President Donald Trump has signed an executive order reinstating the original Presidential Fitness Test in American public schools, replacing the less competitive, health-focused approach introduced in 2012. The revived test includes a one-mile run, pull-ups or push-ups, sit-ups, shuttle runs, and flexibility drills, aiming to combat declining youth fitness and rising obesity rates. At the White House signing ceremony, Trump was joined by Bryson DeChambeau, Harrison Butker, Lawrence Taylor, and WWE executive Triple H, who will help lead an expanded President’s Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition. The initiative will reward top-performing students with a Presidential Fitness Award, reviving a mid-20th century tradition. The move has sparked debate, with supporters emphasizing discipline and improved health, while critics warn of potential undue pressure on children. The policy comes as the U.S. prepares for upcoming major international sporting events.
