The participants of this study were 174 students aged between 11 and 13 years from two secondary school located in Manisa.

The control group continued as normal with its daily activities and physical education classes, while the homework group was also assigned a homework exercise program. Both groups were measured at the beginning and end of the 14 weeks by using running and physical fitness tests. It was found that the homework group had higher scores in running tests and physical fitness tests than the control group.
