Features: Physical training, as a course, was only introduced into the classrooms of tourism schools in the late 20th century. Compared to fundamental cultural subjects or professional courses, the "Physical Training" course remains a relatively young discipline that is yet to be fully developed and refined. However, since its establishment, this young course has made remarkable contributions to the development of tourism education and has been favored and welcomed by students in tourism schools. A newly established discipline, gaining students' admiration emotionally and theoretical support from educational practice, is indeed thought-provoking. Apart from the personal charm of the instructors—of course, this charm is also based on the discipline providing teachers with a platform to showcase their talents—the precise positioning of the discipline itself is also a key reason for its success. This book introduces the basics of physical training, fundamental knowledge of human anatomy and exercise physiology, posture training, body shape training, fitness equipment training, and service posture training. With the aim of nurturing students and improving their body shape, posture, and physical fitness, the book briefly explains the basic principles and content and methods of physical training from a combination of theoretical and practical perspectives. This textbook adheres to the principles of knowledge, science, readability, and forward-thinking, striving to bridge the gap between the teaching syllabus and students.
