According to Bartholomew (2005), Physical activity is an interesting research subject affecting both physical and psychological wellbeing. Ekkekakis (2003) added that including forming a positive body image, relieving depression, and increasing life satisfaction. In addition Rudolph (1995) said, there is evidence that physical activity promotes intelligence and brain development. In the sport research field, previous studies have examined the positive effects of physical activity on intelligence and brain development using various intelligence measurements

For example, Corder (1996) found that complex fitness training during a 20-day program increased children’s intelligence test scores (i.e., Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children) by analyzing 24 children aged 12–16 years old. Zervas et.al.,(1991) concluded that aerobic exercise significantly increased cognition among 26 children aged 11–14 years old. Additionally, Budde, et al. (2008) found that complex physical training programs increased concentration by stimulating brain function among 99 children aged 13–16 years old.

Nowadays students are proficient with technology, using it daily in and out of the classroom ( Caswell 2011). Technology enables learning to take place outside of the classroom and the library wherein students use technology to meet, collaborate and create content virtually. In many case, technology helps students research subjects, share ideas and learn specific skills (Tausend, 2019). Students are completely dependent on technology. According to Kvavik (2019), the result of his study showed that students reported tha they use technology first for educational purposes followed by communication. 99.5% reported that they used computers for writing documents and emails. Followed by 97.2% surfing the internet for pleasure and 96.4% for classroom activities. In addition, Town et.al (2017), stated that the result of their study showed that students used smartphones most often at about 4.4 hours per day, followed by laptops at around 4 hours a day. The study participants indicated that they use their technology devices for recreation. According to Browne (2011), distance is another factor that contributes to this reliance on technology, which is affected by availability and convenience wherein users of networking sites enjoy the ability to stay in touch with their family and friends. With so many long distance relationships being established today, this technology is being used to maintain these relationships. This goes hand in hand with people's need or desire to stay connected with others, which can be considered another cause of the dependence.

Similarly, Siew (2011) stated that students’ strong desires to keep in touch with others through technology can be seen in the fact that they compare not having such connections to going without their family or friends. The findings of “Pew Internet Projects” showed that electronic devices are being used when a person is bored, while doing homework, before sleeping or as soon as they wake up and students update themselves for the weather forecast, events or even check their email ( UK Essay, 2018). Although learning through technology is helpful, it makes students over dependent on internet and removes good and essential habits like reading books and most of the outdoor activities or sports are getting subdued due to Internet (Learnpick, 2017). The increasing use of electronic media has an influence on the time spent Americans on living a healthier life and practicing healthier lifestyles and one of the main causes for sedentary lifestyles is the growing use of media and technology ( The Herald-Tribune, 2018). According to Adil (2018), one of the most and worse effect of technology dependency is obesity because most of the people spending time using technological devices. They play video games, watching videos or taking on phones with friends and eating unhealthy foods which result in increased obesity. Their activity level decreases due to these technological devices. When we’re using technology, we generally aren’t exercising. That’s why there’s an increasing body of research linking overuse of digital devices to a drop in exercise and fitness levels. Americans got 32% less exercise and were 43% more sedentary in

2009 than in 1965, researchers found. And in a study of college students, those who used their smartphones the most had poorer results on cardiorespiratory fitness tests than the less addicted (Northwest Primary care, N.D). According to Antoine-Chagar (2018) The development of technology has created great benefits to populations over the world, reducing physical hardships and increasing worker productivity, however this has had grave implications on the physical body. Without physical activity the human body cannot function in its optimal way leading to a diaspora of health problems. Second to smoking, physical inactivity is the second highest cause of preventable death in the world.

And according to the results obtained from Sahin et.al (2018) study, it was revealed that the individuals with more internet use had decreased physical activity levels. The main findings of this study were internet addiction increased, the level of physical activity decreased. This finding is similar to the work of Kim et al. (2015) that examines the relationship between smart phone addiction and physical activity, found out that individuals at risk are overweight and have less muscle mass due to smartphone addiction. However, According to Witten (2018), When you search for "technology makes us lazy" online you’re bombarded with lists of reasons why everyone believe tech may be holding us back, physically. However, some are not true because technology has also a positive impact in our health such as app that follows along these same lines

is Charity Miles. With this app, any time you log miles for walking, running, or cycling, money will be donated to your charity of choice. This technology positively impacts not only our health, but also our passions for meaningful causes.
