Abstract
Objective: The aim of this research is to analyse the use of the practical component within the online PE lesson during the Covid-19 pandemic. Design: A number of 400 PE teachers from 9 counties of Romania were interviewed in connection with the online PE lesson during the Covid-19 pandemic. Thus, the proposed questionnaire contains two parts: one in which demographic data is requested and one containing 14 items requesting the specialized opinion regarding the online PE lesson. The likert scale was used in order to construct 5 answer options for each of the 14 items. Results: Teachers who said they approach these elements "Very Much" or "A lot" are below 3.6%. Those who answered that they approach them "Enough" are still quite few when it comes to learning/strengthening motor skills specific to sports games (8%), but their number increases when it comes to speed (17.3%) and endurance (22.8%). One may also notice that the sum of the percentages “A Little” + “Not at all” of the teachers who answered that they approach these three elements is over 71%. (77.6% speed, 71.5% endurance, 97.3% motor skills specific to sports games). Conclusion: Teachers’ answers indicate the fact that, in the online PE lesson, motor skills are developed, with an increased emphasis on strength, dexterity and flexibility.

Opinion regarding the approach to the practical component in the online PE lesson. Teachers' answers to these first six questions are presented in Table 2: From the teachers' answers it can be seen that speed, endurance and the motor skills specific to sports games are the least addressed elements in the online PE lesson

Summary
Each generation has its own characteristics, which are largely influenced by the education it receives. In turn, changes continuously, in an attempt to become more efficient. The young generation is the least affected by the Sars-Cov 2 virus. As PE specialists, we have a responsibility to highlight the causes of these side effects and to discover the life-saving vaccine. It is imperative to promote physical activity among the new generations, and the most effective way to do this is through PE (Corbin, 2002). Perez and Saltijeral (2016) tried to answer this question and the conclusion is that educational strategies focused on changing eating habits and on promoting physical activity for health, should rely on the knowledge and attitudes of students to ensure the success of the applied methods The question that concerns the specialists in the field refers to: which is the best content of PE in order to achieve this goal?
