Abstract
Growth is one of the most fashioning phenomena in the biological context. In this brief report, a vision between growing and exercise practice is found. Human maturation is controlled by internal biological factors focused not only to development of stature, muscle mass, and strength, but human maturation regards, also, the development of the central and peripherical nervous systems and the sprouting of synapses between neurons and basal ganglia that lead to high motor control during physiological outcomes. Thus, the trends of maturation become important to be accurate during Physical Education proposal. For example, precaution in the use of overload before 18 years, funny game for endurance performance or activity centered on general skill at high speed are in the authors' opinion valid suggestions. In the absence of pathological condition or scant nutrition, all children can follow constant practice according to scientific evidence.
