Joining the European Community, enjoin us to creating the profile of the new generation requires an awareness of the population of the importance of doing physical exercises, physical activities, of changing their lifestyle to maintain or improve working efficiency and the state of health.

For that, we have organized a research to establish some aspects of doping in connection with nutrition and sport performance. I also have found in this research the concerns of international committees, which embrace the legislative measures against doping in sports.

Educational activities are widely supposed by philosophers to satisfy at least two conditions (Clayton, 1993; Griffin, 1996; White,1982): the knowledge condition and the value condition. The first demands that any activity describable as educational must involve the acquisition of knowledge and understanding. The second stipulates that what is learned is in some way worthwhile or beneficial. The focus of this paper is on the second of these requirements, and in particular with the question of how outdoor adventure education might be said to fulfil it. The theoretical exercise of elucidation and analysis called for by this task is worth undertaking. There are views of outdoor activities which are confused or inadequate, and such views are likely to have harmful consequences if they influence educational policy or the practice of instructors and facilitators (Reid, 1996). Outdoor activities are analysed from the perspective of educational aims in terms of the various components of human well being (Langford, 1985). These include: Intellectual or cognitive value associated with certain kinds of systematic inquiry (Humberstone, 1997); Ethical value, as expressed in notions of principled conduct, interpersonal respect, courage and self-control (Newton et al’s,2001); Economic value as expressed in the ideas of work, usefulness and productivity (Hal, 1999); Hedonic value, which is the value attached to our capacity for pleasure, enjoyment or satisfaction; Health and welfare value, that is physical and mental well-being (Armstong and Biddle,1992). The argument of this paper is that a pluralistic account of value is required to capture the variety of ways in which outdoor activities satisfy the value condition of education.

Therefore, the study of the alimentary principles, among whom AO, constitute one of the basic activities of the international health institutions [4]. Natural AO are grouped in two categories: nutritional and non-nutritional. Natural AO may have intra- or extra-cellular target. AO with intracellular target are hydrophobic depurators, _-tocopherol, flavonoids and lasaroids. AO with extra-cellular target may be divided into enzymatic depurators (SOD, CAT, CSH-Px) and hydrophilic depurators (ascorbic acid, GSH, L-metio-nine) (Dejica, 2001).

The sport became a social phenomenon with a universal character and it represents a contemporary reality of a high importance due to its functions and creative values as well as to the role that it plays in our social life. This sport, artistic gymnastics, is very spectacular, hard and attractive. The competition consists of the confrontation between the teams.

From the study carried out upon a sample of 238 boys and 225 girls at the level of primary schools in the city of Brasov, there ensues the diminution of the speed capacity as compared to the level marked during the previous testing at national level, which imposes the administration within the lesson of several acting means that should contribute to a rise in the level of the speed capacity, which has priority character at this age.

Soccer games are usually of high intensity, and can be stressful on any athlete body. The best way to reduce most of this stress and keep yourself feeling good during the game is by stretching before the game, and practice. Stretching or doing a warm-up can help a player prepare mentally and physically for the game. Gabriel Simion Copyright (c) 2008 Bulletin of the Transilvania University of Brasov.
