fitness tests for elementary students

Are you against fitness testing for elementary students?
why? self esteem issues, unfair?
huh, huh?
I am for it because in today’s day and age, obesity between children has risen and it doesn’t hurt for a child to take a fitness test. They do have the energy for it!

fitness games for middle school

I am in 5th grade right now and when i get to 6th grade i want to try out for the cheer leading team, any tips?
They said that tumbling is optional but i want to have the best chance to make this squad. I can not do the splits, any handsprings, or tucks/flips. But I can do a back-bend and, a front handspring on the trampoline and also a front tuck on the trampoline, and then i can do a Cartwheel but i am having a prob with a round off.
Another thing is that i am 5 foot and i weigh between 98-101 (it is diffrent every once in a while). Don’t tell me i am not over weight because i know i am and on the wii it says i am to.
Anyways, could you guys give me some tips on how to become more flexible, how to lose weight and build muscle ( I am already trying Wii fit and i am asking for the new fitness game for Christmas so don’t say that please), and what i should doo to learn everything about Cheer.
One more thing is that what do you think is exspected at middle school tryouts.
im n high school u have to have good grades they prefer u have tumbling skills but u don’t have to if u do u get extra pts.from the judges smile alot … we had 3 days to learn the chant, cheer, dance (which they tought us), but ur school might have u come up with them 4th day was the tryout we were put in groups in four , we also practiced stunting but we ended up not doing it at tryouts tried out for freshmen squad but didn’t make it im a soph. now i plan to try out for varsity in april.. im going to be working hard by the way & sometime during my jr. yr get tumbling lessons to get those skills dwn
did u go to the info. mtg. yet?
jumps: toe touch, front hurdler, herkie, tuck, pike (they want them high)
make sure u have precision,nice tight motions not sloppy or broken wrists
req.: ask any present cheerleaders or the coach if u need tumbling if u do end up needing it take a class cuz u can’t perfect them by urself u can get hurt
work out plans : stretch,cuz u need strength for ur motions, jumps, and when stunting, running/walking
stretches:sit with legs in a V position, as far apart as you can and lean and stretch at the same time on both sides (lean over left leg, then lean over right leg) also, try reaching your hands out in front of you as far as you can while doing these exercises., butterfly as well.If you do this on a regular basis, you will continue to become more flexible.
meal plan: fruits, veg, sweets every now and then try to stay fit
how to:if u need any tips here are just a few sites i recommend

Need Feedback: Starting a Parents & Kids Fitness Facility/Gym?
Hey Everyone,
Just looking for some general feedback. I in the process of starting a niche Parents & Kids gym. There will be 2 rooms divided by large windows….in the kids area there will be gymnastic equipment, rock climbing wall, rope, and other fun fitness activities. The adult exercise area will consist of standard work out machines, free weights and cardio equipment. The kids will be able to see their parents working out and this would hopefully promote healthy lifestyles. Upon registration each family receives a Life Coach which will guide them through their fitness progress.
What do you think? Any comments?
u are the 14th person wishing to do this.
excuse me but what is, in your opinion, the purpose of PE in school? IT is tax supported
and state mandated.
i am not trying to be funny.

Can you pass PE if you don’t do good on the fitness test?
I have an A- in Gym, and A+’s in all my other classes. Reason for the A- is lack of extra credit options. Anyways, the fitness test is coming pretty soon. I should be able to pass the mile run, the sit-up test, and the sit and reach ones, but I know I’m going to fail the push up test and probably the shuttle run test. This is my first year in public school, so it’s my first time doing push ups etc. How much of your grade is the fitness test? I mean, if some kid had an A and failed all the tests, what would his grade be, and would he have to repeat PE? What if he just fails some and barely passes the others? Thanks, and sorry for the long question.
Truthfully, the only way to know is to ask the teacher how much each test is worth. I doubt that you will fail gym, because of the physical tests. However, you may not get an A in the class. If you fail some and barely pass some others, passing still depends on grading system for that teacher’s particular class. If it did bring your grade down that much then the system doesn’t care about the some that you actually passed. If you fail PE you would have to repeat it. Good luck on your tests! I’m sure you’ll be fine on all of them and you’ll be fine even if you fail a couple of those tests.

My wife is pregnant!! So I ask all of you, besides love and acceptance…?
What is the greatest thing a father can give to his child?
I have already been working out, getting ripped because I want my child to see physical fitness as a regular activity, like cleaning your room, brushing your teeth…
We eat no junk in my house so thats set…
What lesson would you have wanted to hear from your father? What example could he have/did set?
Congratulations! Man, this kid is so lucky.
The most important lesson a kid can have is independence. It is good that you are going to be instilling good habits early on, but make sure the kid understands why those habits are important. Take the time to explain the why, and not just order them around and say because I said so. Make sure that they know how to do laundry, cook, keep a clean house, pay taxes, do minor car repairs, fix mistakes with insuance companies over the phone, and build good credit.
I am nineteen, and I am so glad that I have been taught all these things, I feel so ready to take on the world.
