The present study aims to make a bibliographical survey about the guidelines that conduct the classes of Physical Education at school, making specific notes on the parameters related to body culture, health care and risk of obesity. Knowing that obesity rates have increased in Brazil, pointing out the biological and cultural factors as the main causes, it is important to structure the concepts of body culture from childhood, and it is the role of scholar Physical Education to introduce habits that can help the state in controlling the growth of diseases related to excess body weight, thus increasing the population's expectation and quality of life. It is concluded that the parameters that govern the approaches in physical education classes treat superficially the corporal culture in the school environment.
