QUOTE because in middle school most kids dont lift weights, and most of the coaches arent exactly known for their strength and coniditoning programs And middle school physical education teachers do that? we certainly didnt.. QUOTE Also, alot of athletes at that level do what is necessary physical wise for their sport during the season and thats it. Middle school is a good transition age where you can show the kid the benefits of a good PE program, and teach him health habits for life. I know thats what elementary is for, but this is the age where they do start to gain some interest in working out Hm.. I'l agree with you this point QUOTE Also, unless they ARE an athlete, at that age they prolly dont do any regimented strength training I notice that you keep emphasizing strength.. QUOTE Finally, you are just going to further the notion that athletes are better than the regular kids and cause some uneasiness by doing that. That is not what I'm saying at all.. I'm saying that athletes already get their exercise.. and do not need a physical education program.. I mean.. in middle school, we hardly did anything.. we covered a few units of sports and ran daily.. that was about it.. athletes do more in preparation for their sport.. and its not like they're completelyl excluded from PE, they're just excluded for the duration of their athletic season |
