I FAILED PE! Options

[Wishful_Dream]

...

Okay, Not exactly an F but close.. I have a C-

I'm not fit at all. I'm skinny, or so my so-called friends say so. But, I'm still not fit. How do I get into good shape? So I won't get too tired running?

Will drinking milk actually help? Does it only make your bones stronger?

I always get cramps. There's a topic on "crampz" but no one's really helping on that.. someone else made it and I'm to lazy to post the link...

Everytime we have to run laps.. I always have to walk, I have to stop.. and I don't know why.. My stomache is like killing me.. x.x"

So, any tips? >< Because I REALLY need it.

Move this if it doesn't belong here.. or close it if it's already made... but if you close this.. and there's a topic on this already.. PLEASE provide me the links..

thanks..

well seeing that it's PE, ask your PE teacher on advise on what you can do to strength your muscles. As for your question, milk is good for your bones yes but it doesn't necessarily make your muscles strong and that is what is needed when running among other activities. You can do a lot of activities that works your lower body instead of running. For instance, jump roping, swimming, skipping, walking fast, etc. As for those cramps, it's most likely because 1. you're exerting to much pressure on your back which pushes out your abdomen which can cause pain, don't run as if there is a huge block on your chest pulling you down and 2. because you aren't holding your stomach muscles in. Sounds odd, but when running, hold it in. It builds endurance and strength which is what you need to run efficently. Hold it in as if you are almost going to be punched in your stomach. But, remember, don't force yourself to run faster or at all, this can and will cause injury and discomfort either way, good luck!
