""We're bringing it back," Trump said at an Oval Office ceremony alongside children and professional athletes. "My administration is working very hard to defend America's cherished athletic traditions and pass our values of excellence and competitiveness to the next generation.""
""We need young, strong, healthy Americans, whether you serve in the military or any other aspect of your life," Hegseth said. "The idea that competition is bad is the beginning of decline of a nation.""
President Trump has reinstated the Presidential Physical Fitness Award, aiming to reintroduce the fitness test in schools. This initiative reverses the previous administration's focus on minimizing competition. The test, which includes exercises like a 1-mile run and sit-ups, will be mandatory for students at 161 military schools. Trump emphasized the importance of instilling values of excellence and competitiveness in the next generation. Details of the revived test are yet to be announced, but the initiative seeks to promote health and athleticism among youth.
