Although reform and opening up has achieved fruitful results, one of the social problems that the existence of vulnerable groups is becoming increasingly prominent. It is a huge project that CCP and the state propose to build a harmonious society, covering the promotion of all aspects of socialist political, economic and cultural development. It also requires taking an overall and balanced consideration that caring for vulnerable groups becomes the top priority to improve people’s livelihood and promote the harmonious development of society. Sports, not only can build the healthy body, but also can train the sound personality, which is regarded as modern "safety valve" alleviating, outpouring and decreasing group contradiction. Mass movement is a fundamental right as well as a standard to measure national powers and people’s livelihood. The whole nation’s health is the basis of people’s life. Meanwhile, as a Communist country advocating peaceful development, China is being increasingly powerful which triggers jealousy and hindrance from Capitalism anti-China forces. However, we should by no means become their tools to play politics. This paper is under such guidance that makes a study on fitness security system of urban vulnerable groups in Shaanxi Province.This paper first clarifies the study’s necessity, defines the relevant conceptions and analyses the research findings both in foreign countries and in China by methods of literature, interview, questionnaire, field research, and mathematical statistics, etc.Then it carries out a descriptive study on urban vulnerable groups’health condition and fitness condition, showing that those people are difficult in finance, low in cultural level and poor in health, they are also mentally pessimistic, disappointed and social-deprived. Sport motivation and sport value are weak, and participation is not active. Besides, the frequency of participation is rather low that the time used for doing sports is really short and the content centers on excises without costs, skills or particular facilities. Park, street, home and fitness path are the main fields for them to doing sports. Low annual consumption, little home fitness equipment and lacking of fitness organizations or partners contributes to the imperfectness of fitness security system.Thirdly, the paper makes a comprehensive analysis of the subjective and objective reasons for their fitness condition. Subjectively, traditions formed in the ancient times that "the king is more important than the average people","man of letters is poorer than swordsman", and "no fortunes, no sports" have a profound impact on people’s sports value. Local culture in Shaanxi Province further enforces people’s obedience to such tradition. What’s more, relatively low education level and insufficient information channels prevent them making proper judgments of sports value. Objectively, income and education determine whether people will take excise or not. Economy is the foundation of sports in terms of the micro environment and some famous theories. For instance, both the American psychologist Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and the originator of economics Adam Smith’s Rational-economic Man theory indicate that lower income deeply influences vulnerable groups’participation and consumption in sports. If the tradition in sports field is regarded as the fertile ground for sports motivation and sports value, education after birth would change or strengthen the original cognition, and form the individual motivation and values eventually. Education, to some degree, also plays a key role in determining people’s social position and income. Bourdieu’s Cultural capital theory illustrates that in Shaanxi Province, vulnerable groups’educational level restrains them getting involved in sports. Insufficient responsible body, sports fields, guidance or publicity are objective factors, too.Finally, on the basis of the current situation and reasons, this paper proposes some strategies coping with the construction of fitness security system for vulnerable groups in Shaanxi Province. It should comply with the principles of fair, compulsory, effective, and the combination of social support with rising income. It is also necessary to establish a series of mechanisms including driving and incentive, control and integration, guarantee, and service that function by connecting and restricting with each other. Such security systems containing four layers that will be performed in accordance with the pre-set object (the established goal). Reinforce the regulation and monitoring. Then form a network in which the government plays a leading role together with enterprises, non-governmental sports organizations, communities, Personal social network make contribution to the comprehensive security system. The system support urban vulnerable groups from such aspects as materials, spirit, fitness guidance, cultural education, policy, laws, publicity, etc. Through protecting fitness rights, changing fitness habits, and also strengthening social adaptability, urban vulnerable people’s involvement, life quality and social stability are all being improved. In addition, a new security mode is being established that urban vulnerable groups’fitness security is integrated with health care and social security system, which systematically and consciously leads people to treat sports as a significant part in their life not only saving resources but also benefiting the nation as well as the people.
