Personal Fitness
Everyone wants to be fit so they can live their lives to the fullest. Personal Fitness seeks to teach students the connection between their physical fitness and their ability to fully glorify God with their bodies, leading to fitness in both their physical and eternal lives. Students are required to participate in weekly cardiovascular, flexibility, strength, and endurance activities. Using the theme of the city, this high-school-level course encourages students to be present and able to serve and enjoy God’s creation. This course uses videos, graphics, and interactive learning opportunities to encourage students to get out and be active. Fitness logs help students monitor physical activities. By following personalized training principles, students can gain confidence from personal success while developing healthy habits that last a lifetime.
