The projects which the Michigan Council on Physical Fitness and Health undertook in 1978 are reported and described here. The projects and activities include: a school physical fitness program that provided assistance to public, private, and parochial schools in monitoring the physical fitness levels of all students in grades kindergarten through twelve; a cardiovascular health program focused on exercise to strengthen a youngster's heart and activities that teach a young person concepts about the circulatory system, how to take blood pressure, check heart rate, and determine the percentage of body fat; and the drafting of a position statement in support of physical education for all students in Michigan schools. Several other less prominent activities are also reported as well as projected activities and plans for the future. (DS)
