This is the workout video I chose for today's workout. This video targets toning the thighs and the glutes. I really want to build muscles in this area, and I hope that these exercises can help me achieve that.

Fitness Reflections (Week 2)

This week, we did the pond run and hill sprints for our two fitness days. For the pond run, I think I did a good job because I ran/jogged every time we were supposed to and kept going for the whole minute. There was maybe 1 or 2 runs where I fast walked/light jogged, instead of running because I got a cramp, but other than that I am fairly proud. Towards the end, I definitely can say that I felt tired and I was starting to slow down, but I tried to keep a good pace throughout the whole run. For the hill sprints, I feel I did a good job on that too. I kept a consistent pace and always ran up the hill. Even if my friends were faster than me, I kept a good pace and made sure to not stop halfway. I definitely felt my legs burn after a couple laps after I reached the top, however I still pushed my way through and finished the activity. I am happy with my fitness this week and hope to continue this till the end of the semester.

PE 10 first post (Beep Test results)

Our first fitness testing was on Friday,  September 26, and we did the beep test. I got a 6, and I feel like I can do better , because I have gotten up to 9 before.  I guess I am not very fit at the moment because I wasn't as active as I would have like to been over the summer, but I definitely feel that I can improve from this score. I am a 0 on the flexibility, and can hold the plank for 45 seconds. On the stand and reach, I am at 215, and when I jump I hit a little bit over 250.  Unfortunately, I did not get to complete all the tests because I was actually helping some of the grade 8's out with their tests and showing them what to do (it was their first ever fitness). Next time, I hope to have more results to update and probably will because not as many grade 8's will need assistance.
