Abstract

The theoretical review addresses the virtual physical education established in Mexico based on social confine-ment by COVID-19, based on the problem, already existing in Mexico, of sedentary lifestyle and childhood obesi-ty in primary school children, in whom, derived from social confinement, an increase in body mass is estimated, which carries greater health risks. When analyzing the recent bibliography, which relates COVID-19 with physi-cal education and physical activity, the opportunity for physical education teachers to conduct virtual schemes in the contents of the educational program is identified, in this way, to contribute to the decrease in sedentary lifestyle in primary school students, prioritizing physical literacy.
