Year 7 proved that lockdown is no excuse to sit still. Last Thursday, students applied their new year enthusiasm to a virtual workout session with Mr Livingston and Mr Lipton over MS teams. Twenty minutes of high intensity exercises worked out all the muscle groups and cardio zones the students have been learning this semester.
Post workout, students discussed the workout sharing their favorite and most challenging exercises as well as providing suggestions on how to improve virtual workouts.
Both teachers and students agreed this session was a great energy boost and opportunity to connect albeit virtually.
The importance of sport and physical activity should play an active part of our students lives. Throughout lockdown we the GYM Sport department have updated a SPORT EVERYDAY channel, where students have the choice of two training sessions uploaded by Mr. Lipton and Mr. Livingston. They can choose between a running training session, or a muscluar endurance circuit in the house. Both activities are excellent in order to get away from the laptop, refresh and be ready to face the challenges of the day ahead.
