The purpose of this study was to determine if requiring multiple credits of high school physical education for graduation has an impact on promoting physical activity in young adults. Participants in this study (N=361) were surveyed concerning their high school physical education experiences and current performance of physical activity. Results indicated that graduates of states with greater credit requirements reported significantly higher levels of cardio respiratory endurance activity, indicating that mandating multiple credits may have a positive impact on increasing physical activity levels of young adults.
