Establishing the Congressional Fitness Challenge, and for other purposes.
This bill establishes the Congressional Fitness Challenge, a national program promoting physical fitness for students aged 6-17 in public, private, or home schools. It requires five standardized fitness tests (1-mile run, pull-ups, curl-ups, shuttle run, and sit-and-reach) administered by certified fitness professionals, with performance benchmarks set by age and gender. Participants meeting these benchmarks receive a certificate signed by congressional leaders, with recognition levels (Bronze, Silver, Gold) based on percentile performance relative to peers. The program is funded through existing congressional allowances for Members of Congress to organize local events, overseen by the House Administration and Senate Rules committees.
