N2 - It is argued that focusing on overcoming movement challenges in which skill development plays a role but is not the focus of teaching in physical education, provides a different and more rational perspective than that which has evolved from the current focus on FMS. This argument is supported by findings from sociological research and philosophical theories. Based on the arguments presented in this paper, it is proposed that contextualized (e.g., game-based) approaches are of more value than focusing on FMS only, especially when the aim is to stimulate purposeful physical activity in an educational context.
