Introduction The development of physical education (PE) class in the rural primary school has a direct relationship with the pupils’ physical health and their interest in lifelong sports training, what’s more, it involves the future of our motherland and nation. In 2009, “Plan for The Development of Chinese Youth School Soccer Ball” officially launched, and DaZhou is one of the 44 cities that applied this activity. This helps DaZhou step into a new stage in PE sports of different districts that modeled by urban areas. In order to provide the theory basis for PE reform in DaZhu County, this thesis has a thorough analysis and summary for the present situation of PE class in rural primary school of DaZhu county, which probes into the problems and causes in the process of carrying out the sports training class.

While individual ankle and metatarsophalangeal joint stiffness is related to training intensity and sport performances, sport athletes may develop specific passive joint stiffness among the spectrum from endurance to powerful types of sports. +e objective of this study examined whether marathon runners, basketball players, and other sports athletes would demonstrate distinct passive ankle and metatarsophalangeal joint stiffness as well as vertical stiffness. Fifteen marathon runners, nineteen basketball players, and seventeen other sports athletes performed both joint stiffness measurement and single-leg hopping tests. We used a computerized dynamometer to control foot alignment and speed for passive ankle and metatarsophalangeal joint stiffness measurements.
