  Abstract:  In this dissertation the aim of the applied pedagogic test is the examination of the state of health, the physical activity level and healthkeeping behaviour of the Spanish seconday school and high school attendants. We are looking for connections between the results of the components of the life quality (SF-36), physical (PCS) and mental (MCS) self evaluation questionnaires, and the level of moderate and vigorous physical activities (IPAQ), divided on age-groups. During the 2008-2009 academic year the standard questionnaires were filled in by 3012 (1445 boys and 1521 girls, avarage age ±15,81) Granadian secondary and high school students. The frequency by age-groups and the distribution of the evaluated persons is 5,64% reprezentativ. As a first approach we may declaire that the evaluated Granadian student’s state of health is adequate, and their level of physical activity is medium sufficient. The state of health of the students from the first cycle of the secondary school is better. During the three evaluated school cycles, the results show a continuously decrease tendency by the increasing of age. Dividing the students by gender, the men’s state of health is significantly better, and they exercise more than women. In order to achieve an ideal body weight, state of health, maintainence of physical strength of the age dependent increasing cycle, children and teenagers need at least a 60 minutes moderate or vigorous physical activity.

Keywords: physical strength, mental health, life quality, moderate and vigorous physical activity
