I'm graduating this year from DePaul and I'm hoping to find a job teaching PE for next year. I'm ACE certified and I currently teach group fitness classes like Crunch and Muscle Work - Does anyone have any ideas on how I can use this type of experience in the PE class without making it too challenging for students? Do you think it's a good idea to make it a work-out or just to introduce students to fitness in general? Thanks for your help! |

A good way to incorporate fitness like that in PE is to include it in your warm up. Also, it could be a good fitness class just to introduce the students to the idea of group fitness classes and what they can look for at their own fitness center. |

I would think you could easily use the information you've learned in your class setting. Just remember the principle of progression. Start out the students doing the activity for a short amount of time (maybe even as low as 1 minute) and increase their time as they become accustomed to the time. |
