My main focus as a PE teacher at East Oakview is to help students enjoy exercise. If we want students to grow up to have a healthy lifestyle, exercise must be something they enjoy doing. Personally, I feel that exercising in a group or a team makes it more enjoyable because of the social benefits. When we are young, exercise almost always comes in the form of being on a sports team, club or school PE class. When we get older, for most of us, sports teams and PE classes are no longer an option. A good way to stay fit and be part of a club or group is to find a gym that offers group fitness classes.
Below is a link to an article about a gentleman who was extremely overweight and joined a CrossFit gym. I personally like CrossFit because I have been part of a CrossFit gym for almost 6 years. I would encourage anyone who is looking to create a healthier lifestyle to check out a local CrossFit gym or any fitness center that offers a group classes.
...And Fitness For All
Sincerely,
Jordan Wallin
