April 20-24

Hey guys I hope you all are well and safe. I hope you all are using this time to learn life skills that you may have to use in your everyday life. I promise they will come in handy. Just this week I have had to boost off two vehicles and change a flat tire. Luckily most of these problems were not my own but someone else’s that I just happened to be able to help with. Remember to always help others when you can because you may be the one in need one day! If there is anything I can do for you guys please let me know.
 
 This week I would like for you all to complete week five of your exercises just like you have been doing. Make sure to log these as week five (exercise examples and log can be found below). Remember to try and do a little more each week the goal is to be building up just like when we run the pacer we want to improve our numbers not regress. The goal is to see progress and see an increase in reps, intensity, and duration.
 
 The second assignment for this week is to watch the video and read the article on your heart rate (both posted below). There is a worksheet below to work on once you have watched the video and completed the reading. 
 
Thanks for everything you guys do. Miss you guys. Hope to see you soon.

Week 2

Dear parents, guardians, and students,
I hope you all are doing well and enjoying our warm weather. Remember it is very important to stay active to improve your immune system to help you stay  healthy during this time. Use this time to get outdoors and stay in shape.
 
 This week I would like for you all to complete week two of your diet on MyFitnessPal and your exercises just like you did in week one. Make sure to log these as week two (diet and exercise logs can be found below).
 
 Look at week one vs two and write a brief summary (half a page for each) comparing the similarities and differences in your diet and amount of physical exercises and why these patterns may be happening.
 
 Lastly for this week, write a one page reflection on how this event and being out of school has affected your physical, mental/emotional, and social health.

Letter to Students and Parents

Dear Students and Guardians,

I hope you all are well and staying safe. I am posting a few things that you all can work on while we are out. It is very important to remain physically active. Please try to find time to get outside when the weather is nice and move around. When stuck indoors look at exercises posted below to do at home. Yoga is another great alternative when you are crunched for space. You can follow all of these examples and log what you have done each day on the sheet provided. This should take care of you physically and help you to remain physically fit and healthy while we are out.

The next part is My Fitness Pal. This is the final part to our chapter on food and diet. You may download the app just search for My Fitness Pal (It has the Under Armor Logo on the App) or go to myfitnesspal.com. There is an additional tutorial on how to use this resource below. Remember the key is using correct measurements and recording everything that you eat or drink. Remember to use our examples from in class to recognize how much a cup is or how much a half cup is (this is so you do not have to measure everything every time). If using the app I suggest using the scanner option which allows you to scan the bar code of the food item just like you are at the grocery store and it will input all the data. The resource will show you this along with all other features.  My Fitness Pal will keep track of all of your information. You can use this information to fill in your food log and bring back to class when we return.

Stay Safe and Stay Active!

Sincerely,

Coach Mitchell
