Easy-to-Do Radio Calisthenics at Home Contributes to Children's Physical Fitness which has been a concern since the coronavirus.

It is particularly important to support children's physical fitness throughout the coronavirus, where there is concern about the decline in physical fitness, and they will work with Lucario to make radio calisthenics, which can be easily practiced at home, more accessible.

Radio Calisthenics were established in 1928 as a National Health Exercise by the Ministry of Communications, the predecessor of Japan Post Insurance. The exercises were reorganized as "Radio Exercises No. 1 and No. 2" between 1951 and 1952, and are still popular among many people today as exercises anyone can easily participate.
