Should gym class be freeform for structured?

Freeform: Goal-based standards on calorie count and progress. (More effective in theory)
{or}
Structured: Every one in the class follows the same program. (Easier to control)

Physical Education should follow a detailed curriculum that is equally challenging to all students, regardless of whatever physical shape that they're in. From an American perspective, we're a disgustingly fat country. By no means am I implying that all men need to look like Brad Pitt in Fight Club and need to be in as good of shape as Michael Phelps, conversely, I'm also not implying that all women need to look Keira Knightly. However, it's rather pathetic that a good majority of high school students are downright lazy. I volunteered at my old high school for a few days when I was home on leave and almost every student in the class, no matter what their weight/height, were disgusting slobs with no motivation, hand-eye coordination, or basic concept of what fitness is. That's downright sad.

Note: I'm extremely biased and I'm aware of this.
