By reviewing the development and problems of adapted physical activity, it is concluded that the unity of rational appeal and actual value should be focused and the unity of exogenous and endogenous under the background of the new era in China should be adhered to. Based on the classic materials in adapted physical activity, it is believed that the pursuit of an individual's best fitness state is the purpose of adapted physical activity, the maximization of individual functions and the optimization of healthy development are the goals of adapted physical activity, and functional linkage and advanced development (FLAD) is a new paradigm in adapted physical activity theory and practice.It is suggested that the self realization and individual function should be stressed on the individual's psychological level. Aslo the importance should be attached to the social environment's influence on the personality, its dynamic development and the socialization of barriers, which should to be observed from an overall life cycle equally.
