HEALTHY LIFESTYLE IN THE CZECH REPUBLIC
The biggest problem in the Czech Republic
is the obesity. There are 52% obese people.
7% bese people are children around 7 years

FOOD
Czech cuisine is not very healthy. We eat a
lot of meat, mostly pork meat, which is fat. And
we also eat a lot of side dishes like rice, pota-
toes, pasta and dumplings.
The most popular dish in our country is
roast pork meat with cabbage and dumplings,

PHYSICAL EXERCISES AND SPORTS
Czech people like sports, but quite a lot of
them like only watching sports on TV. Children
and young people prefer sitting at their comput-
ers, tablets and mobile phones and they don’t
do much sports. Big number of them have only
two lessons of PE at school and that is all.
Tennis courts
This situation becomes better nowadays. In
many cities, towns and villages there are new
sports clubs and new sports facilities.
The most popular sports in Czech Republic
are: ice hockey, football, skiing, tennis, badmin-
ton, cycling, jogging and swimming. In many
small villages in our country the fire sport is
very popular among young people.
