Working In and Out of Class

In order to increase ones time in the mile assessment, hard work and practice needs to occur.
In class, gradual increases in distance will be provided in order to build up our student's capacity to lengthen their cardio vascular abilities. Constant addressing of good health habits and small reminders will also be portrayed, in hope that the students will take in all of the given information.
Out of class, daily workouts should also take place to help increase cardio vascular endurance and abilities. Simple jogs, core workouts, plyometrics, etc all contribute to ones success in becoming more "heart healthy."

Examples:

Morning jog- Start off jogging until tired. Keep track of distance and time and gradually increase those numbers each day.

Plyometric workout- Plyos are a great way to concentrate on ones entire body as a whole. Although these exercises tend to be very vigorous, they are an excellent source to increase body, lung, and heart strength.

Core workouts- When working out, giving 100% is key. When participating in any type of core workout, tightening of the abdomens is what makes the difference. Not only does this work your muscles, but also your endurance ability.

Also, basic and simple games that cause one's heart rate to increase is an informal way to help build up your cardio vascular endurance as well. For example, playing tag or a pick up game of basketball with your friends will absolutely help strengthen your cardio abilities.
