Former President Trump revives the Presidential Fitness Test for schoolchildren, aiming to boost youth fitness.

President Trump plans to revive the Presidential Fitness Test for schoolchildren, originally introduced in 1966 and discontinued in 2012. The test, to be administered by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., will include physical activities like running and sit-ups to promote a healthy lifestyle. The move coincides with the U.S. hosting major sporting events including the 2025 Ryder Cup, 2026 FIFA World Cup, and 2028 Summer Olympics. The council will also develop criteria for a Presidential Fitness Award.
