WHAT UNIT ARE WE IN?

We are in the final week of Tumbling.  You should have your routines pretty much figured out.  Don't forget to download and print the Tumbling Assessment Template from the Tumbling page.  You can get it HERE.  You will have to turn this in on the day that you test, which more than likely be Wed/Thursday and possibly Friday.

WHAT IS OUR RUN THIS WEEK?

I am not sure if you will have a run this week.  

WHAT FITNESS ACTIVITY ARE WE DOING THIS WEEK?

More than likely we will be in the gym on Monday for our Fitness Activity.  I have a couple of ideas.

PE 101 UPGRADE ASSIGNMENT

For those of you that received a D or F on the PE 101 Test are eligible to complete an upgrade assignment and receive a C.  The upgrade assignment MUST be completed this week and turned on or before Friday, 5/17.  If you DO NOT turn it in this week, you will miss your chance to up your grade to a C.  To find the assignment, click HERE and scroll down to the box called Study/Test Materials and click on the link called Upgrade Assignment.

Yes, your final Segment is due for the EYO project on 5/15 & 5/16.  Please bring your completed project with you to Roll Call.

FIT IN 15 HOME WORKOUT VIDEO SERIES

I am putting a lot of effort into making a new series of 15 minute Home Workout Videos called "Fit In 15."  They are perfect to use when you have a busy schedule and/or want to cross train for another sport.   Please subscribe to my YouTube channel and look for the newest Fit In 15 videos to be posted.  To see the latest Fit In 15, watch the video below.  

Go to this link to find the latest Fit In 15 Workouts.

This week's featured Fit In 15 Workouts:

                                      Fit In 15 Pure Strength #1

Extra Credit:  Do one of these Fit in 15 workouts.  While you are working out, keep track of the # of reps you do for each of the exercises.  Afterwards, do a one page write up explaining the following:

What were the names of the exercises?

How many reps did you do each round for the exercises?

What Level did you choose (1, 2 or 3)?

Where did you do the workout?  Living room, bedroom, garage, park, etc.?

Short paragraph explaining how the workout was for you?  difficulty, hardest exercise, easiest exercise, if you modified and why, etc.?

Note:  If you have a Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter and/or Instagram account, please forward these links to friends and family.  I want to get these videos out there.
