Blue Ribbon
Program Award Winner for Curriculum 2011-2016!!!!!!
 Students
in Strength Training will improve all components of Fitness. This is now 10% of their grade! All
students will participate in the seven components of this class. They are:
Flexibility, Weight Lifting, Speed, Agility, Plyometrics,
Core Training, and Nutritional Composition.
Students will identify Isometric, Isotonic, and Isokinetic
types of training. They will be able
to perform muscular strength intensity variations according to their own
fitness levels. Students will increase
their intensity level to 70-85% of their maximum heart rate. Interval, Circuit, and Core training will
also be incorporated.
All blocks begin with Fitness Plan Warm-ups REQUIRED: Students will be expected to improve jogging time without
stopping. Strength Training students are also
required to participate in the regular Physical Education Units. Students will be expected to participate in
a discussion of the material presented. The BFS (Bigger, Faster, Stronger)
Program will be required of all students in this course. This total program consists of the Core Lifts,
Auxiliary Lifts, Flexibility, Speed, Plyometrics,
and Agility. Each student charts his/her progress in a set/rep log. To supplement this, all students will
participate in four units of different lifts.
