The order directs federal agencies to revoke the existing President’s Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition and reestablish it under a new title, which includes the reintroduction of the Presidential Fitness Test. The Secretary of Health and Human Services, with the support of the Secretary of Education, is instructed to administer the fitness test. The order also establishes a council consisting of up to 30 members appointed by the President to advise on the progress of the order's provisions and recommend actions to accelerate such progress.
