SOFTWARE & EQUIPMENT PACKAGE After School Fitness Programs Brendan Conway
Why do we need an after school fitness program? Physical education is one of the only classes which does not require students to do work outside of school. With the high rise obesity rates all over America, there is no better time than now to get children to be aware of and enjoy physical fitness & health. Physical fitness benefits the brain! Working out and being healthy will lead to improved scores, and higher classroom moral. After school fitness programs help students stay out of trouble after school, and improve their overall quality of life!
Goal The main objective of the after school program is to get kids in shape, and have a great time doing it! The use of technology incorporated with students workouts will give kids a chance to see actual numbers for the hard work that they put in, set future fitness goals, and stay motivated to get fit! This will be achieved by giving students numerous fitness options such as cardio workouts, running, sports, weight lifting, and many other activities. Having numerous options will give students who normally do not like to workout the chance to find a new passion!
