In this essay, I problematize the construction of the concept of bodily practices in the field of Physical Education in relation to health from the philosophy of difference, assuming Physical Education as consistence plane. I delineate the philosophical propositions of Deleuze and Guattari and their central characteristics that allow us to think about the role of philosophy in the proposition of concepts. Throughout, I present compositions from this perspective, such as rhizome, minor literature, abstract machine, and agencies, with the intention of articulating bodily practices within these frameworks. In the end, I advocate that bodily practices constitute a 'war machine' in the plane of Physical Education in interface with the field of health.
