Welcome to 4th Period Weight Training

Welcome to the spring semester and 4th period weight training.  I am excited to get going and to help you learn how to workout safely, effectively and to improve your health and fitness.  In the next couple of day's we will be introducing you to several exercises and testing your current level of fitness.  We will also establish class rules and routines.  For your first blog this semester I want you to help me with this process.  List for me three rules or routines that you thin will help the class run smoothly and help to keep everyone motivated and engaged in the class. 

You will have a new blog each Monday and will be responsible for completing the blog before the next one is posted.  Let me know in class or e-mail me if you have any questions with the blog.

    1) start the class with a warmup
    2) tell us the workout for the day and maybe a review of how to do it
    3) let us finish the set and then end with core

  5. 1- Make the students wear appropriate clothing, otherwise they must sit our for the day
    2- Create a lifting schedule, in which we already have mapped out what lifts were doing every day of the week on the wall when we walk into the weight room
    3- Lift with people your equally as strong as. Lifting with friends causes slacking off and time wasted on fiddling around with weight for each individual person when they are up to lift.
