    Kecergasan fizikal adalah kebolehan tubuh badan untuk berfungsi secara efisien dan efektif, menikmati masa kesenggangan untuk sihat, menghindari penyakit, dan untuk bertindak balas ketika keadaan kecemasan. Aktiviti fizikal berkait rapat dengan tahap kecergasan fizikal seseorang. Aktiviti fizikal adalah pergerakan badan yang dihasilkan oleh rangka otot yang akan mengakibatkan pengeluaran tenaga. Kualiti kehidupan bagi rakyat di Malaysia dipercayai akan memberi kesan terhadap pertumbuhan pembangunan fizikal di sesebuah tempat tersebut. Kawasan bandar ialah kawasan yang diwartakan serta kawasan tepu bina yang bersempadan dengannya dan gabungan kedua-dua kawasan ini mempunyai penduduk seramai 10,000 orang atau lebih semasa Banci Penduduk dan Perumahan 2000. Kawasan selainnya yang diwartakan dan mempunyai jumlah penduduk kurang daripada 10,000 orang serta kawasan yang tidak diwartakan, dikelaskan sebagai luar bandar. Perbezaan kawasan tempat tinggal di kawasan yang dibezakan oleh saiz penduduk boleh dikaitkan dengan perbezaan dalam tabiat makan, akses untuk ke tempat kemudahan sukan dan peluang untuk aktiviti fizikal, dan lain-lain lagi. Pendedahan-pendedahan ini terhadap alam sekitar juga mungkin menentukan gaya kehidupan serta risiko terhadap kardiovaskular dan ia mungkin dikaitkan dengan tahap kecergasan. Justeru, kajian ulasan ini dijalankan untuk mengenalpasti faktor yang mempengaruhi tahap kecergasan dalam kalangan remaja dan kanak-kanak di kawasan bandar dan luar bandar.

    The purpose of this study was to compare the acquisition of performing the squat technique using visual and verbal feedback among eleven years old children. Thirty standard 5 students from a semi urban primary school were recruited for this study. Each participant performed the squat without any provision of feedback in the pre-test. Their performance was assessed using the Motion Competency Screen (MCS) scale. The pre-test scores were used to divide the participants randomly into three groups (i.e., visual-, verbal-feedback and control). During the acquisition phase (two weeks), the visual group (video recordings of their performance) received feedback about the correct squat technique by a qualified trainer while the verbal feedback group received verbal instructions and feedback from the same instructor on their performance. The control group did not participate in any trials during acquisition phase. All participants were tested again in the post- and retention test a week after the post-test. A 3 group x 3 tests mixed between-within ANOVA with repeated measures on the second factor was used to measure the between and within group mean differences. There was no significant different between groups for the pre-test. However, both the visual and the verbal feedback groups were significantly better than the control group in the post test. However, in the retention test, the verbal group significantly outperformed the visual group. Again both groups were significantly better than the control group. In conclusion, both visual and verbal feedbacks were effective in learning a motor skill. Interestingly, verbal feedback showed to be more effective for long term retention (learning).
