Abstract
Several researches and different international institutions recognize the fundamental role that Physical Education can play in promoting an active and healthy lifestyle, as well as fostering a positive attitude towards the practice of physical-sports activity. Research shows that the rate of sedentarism in the child and adolescent population is high and worrisome, issues that are more accentuated in the case of girls and female adolescents. If a quality physical education is to respond specifically to the needs of each and every person who receives it, taking into account the above evidence, an analysis of gender, physical education and its influence is needed on this part of the population, given that it seems to have neither the same meaning nor the same influence as in the case of boys and male adolescents.
