Recently, many places across the country have entered the middle school physical education examination time, and some nitrogen pump products that claim to be able to help students improve their grades have "reappeared". According to professionals, taking such products during the physical examination is not very helpful for improving grades, but more for psychological comfort, and excessive consumption may also cause adverse reactions, which will have adverse effects on physical examination results and physical health.
"Nitrogen pump" is a sports supplement rich in caffeine, various vitamins and some energy substances. There are indeed certain risks associated with the use of minors, especially junior high school students. Taking caffeine as an example, there are strict requirements for daily intake, and excessive intake may cause people to experience adverse reactions such as dizziness and tachycardia. A video posted by a blogger on a platform shows that he himself experienced symptoms such as numbness all over his body after taking a "physical examination artifact".

Due to the large number of participants in the secondary school physical examination, this means the existence of a huge demand and a huge market. From the perspective of merchants, it is natural to promote the hot sale of nitrogen pump products because of "business in business". However, the fact that there is an "ineffective operation" and the existence of aftermath after taking it has pushed this wanton sales behavior to a dishonorable situation. In this regard, students and parents need to believe in science, get out of impetuousness and follow the trend, schools and education departments should strengthen positive guidance in response to chaos, e-commerce or short video platforms should take the main responsibility for violations, and regulatory authorities also need to strengthen supervision of chaos.
But it is worth asking rhetorically that over the years, nitrogen pump products have repeatedly rolled up hot air, become the "artifact" chased by everyone, and have even been marked with a collective carnival symbol, what is the real problem behind this?
Undoubtedly, what is made up is because of what is missing. I want to improve my grades through the blessing of the "artifact" of the physical examination, because many students are unsure about the physical examination and are worried that they will not be able to pass the test. Some people are even afraid of physical testing, seeing it as a daunting path.
The reason why this is so is that some schools do not pay enough attention to physical education classes, and phenomena such as occupying physical education classes, fooling physical education classes, and reducing physical education class hours occur from time to time. In some schools, there is a shortage of physical education teachers, lack of professionalism, and the quality of guiding students' exercise can be imagined, resulting in the lack of due improvement of students' sports skills and physique. However, many students lack scientific understanding of physical education and physical exercise due to their low interest or heavy homework burden, and are accustomed to coping with or perfunctory. However, the physical examination is a rigid requirement that cannot be bypassed, so what should we do?

It should be said that regarding the "artifact" of the physical examination as a lifesaver does represent the speculative psychology of some students and parents. But there are also people who are skeptical about the "miraculous efficacy" of nitrogen pump products, but in order to let parents take a "reassuring pill", they also choose to take the initiative to take refuge in metaphysics. In addition, in the case that their own abilities and literacy do not meet the requirements, some parents "go off the rails" and do not hesitate to deceive. All of these have exposed deep-seated problems such as insufficient understanding of physical education, physical education examinations, and physical fitness. If this problem is not solved, there will be other popular things to "fill in the blanks", even without the nuisance of nitrogen pump products.
In other words, the popularity of nitrogen pump products is precisely the two sides of the "cold" physical exercise of some middle school students. In order to eradicate nitrogen pump products, the key is that schools must improve the importance of physical education and physical exercise, and enhance students' interest and sense of gain in strengthening physical exercise by promoting physical education and physical exercise scientifically and regularly, so as to mentally eliminate students' psychological dependence on the "artifact" of physical examination. Normalized, high-quality and regular exercise is the only way to effectively improve students' physical fitness and health status.
Physical examination is not the goal, but the ultimate goal is to motivate children to devote themselves to sports and improve their physical fitness. The Ministry of Education has repeatedly put forward clear requirements for comprehensively strengthening and improving school physical education, repeatedly affirming that strict policy standards and educational supervision, strengthening rigid requirements for physical education courses, and strictly prohibiting the reduction or squeezing of physical education class time. It is also required to fully implement the system of physical activities between large classes and vigorously promote family physical exercise activities. Supervise and guide primary and secondary schools to arrange for students to go out of the classroom for appropriate activities and relaxation between classes. These requirements focus on the practical problems in the practice of physical education, and put forward policy and technical solutions, which are very pertinent and instructive. As long as we follow the regulations of the Ministry of Education, conscientiously implement them, let physical education return to an important position, let children really fall in love with physical education classes, and really improve children's physical skills and physical fitness, how can physical education give children a headache?

Reducing the class time of physical education classes, weakening the status of physical education classes, and turning a blind eye to students' coping and speculative behaviors have led to the spread of the atmosphere of emphasizing the main subject over physical education classes, and this short-sighted behavior is infinitely harmful. In this regard, accountability and punishment mechanisms should also be established and implemented, so as to "force" schools to get out of misunderstandings and work with students to create an environment where they are proud of happy sports.
