Wolfed and Hounds

This game was probably the most fun I had had all year in pe.  I felt like I was man tracker and was really involved for the full 80 minutes.  One thing that could have made the game better would have been if there were more wolves or less people hunting the wolves.  The game involved teamwork, cooperation, and motivation to get the job done.  All in all it was a great game and I loved that day in pe.

Something New For Fitness

On Friday, we tried something new for fitness.  It was a partner activity with one running a circuit while the other did one of the twelve excersises on the board.  I have to admit, I underestimate it.  I found my self pouring with sweat after just the first couple of excersises and laps.  It was really tough,  but I found my motivation in not having my partner die from exhaustion.  This pushed me to run laps as quick as possible.  Another thing that I loved about this fitness was tht there were no breaks.  I was working hard for the full time.  One last thing that made this fitness more enjoyable, was the friendly competition between friends and their partners.  I loved this fitness and it is the hardest I have worked in a long time.

My Interm Mark

I believe that I deserve a 'G' because I give my all every day,  and whether I'm sick, tired,injured, or anything else that would imp are my ability to perform, I'm gonna try to be able to participate.

For all barbell workouts,  a dumbbell will be used because I want to get stronger not necessarily bigger.  Also, skipping and ladder workouts will be added to the workout for speed purposes.

Extended Beep Test

Normally I really enjoy the extended beep test, but this one was an exception.  It was my first fitness day since I was sick and sleeping for 2 weeks straight does nothing for your fitness.  It was tough but I was able to push through it with this strategy.

1-8(1:0)

8-12(1:1)

12-16(1:2)

16-20(1:3)

25 Minute Run

This 25 minute run, I was sick but was still able to run at a fairly constant rate.  I had a huge cramp in lap 4 as it shows in my time but I think I did pretty well in the whole run for the fact that I felt horrible throughout the run.

Triple Threat

On Friday we did the triple threat.  For the triple threat I never did to well because I always wanted to go full out at the beginning and could never finished.  This time however I did better because I paced myself.  I also didn't go as hard as I could for cardio because in previous atempts I always went full out in the cardio and found myself way to tired to do strength.  I was overall happy about my performance this week on the triple threat.

Loco Locomotion

Yesterday we had fitness and we did the loco locomotion.  I gave it my all.  It felt as though I had pushed harder and worked harder in this activity then I ever had before.  I was exhausted and sore but I proved to myself that I can push myself and come out with great results.

Soccer

Today we played soccer.  I love soccer because you are always active and your always involved.  It was a close competitive game and neither team ever had a multigoal lead.  I came out of the game dripping with myself and feeling great.

First Fitness Test

On Tuesday we had our first fitness test.  It was tough for me because I was sore after a weekend of BC Summer Games tryouts.  I pushed trough it and came out with these results

Beep Test:9.3

Push ups:20

Body Bridge:1.49.7

Vertical:50 cm

Balance:13 touches

Stretching:1

I knows I can do better than this so I will push myself in the weeks to come to get better scores.

First Fitness Friday

Today was the first fitness Friday of the year.  We did the pond run and I pushed myself further than usual and came out feeling great.  I was told to push through the last fifteen seconds and it made a huge difference.

Ultimate!

Today we had PE outside to enjoy the last days of sun before the fall and winter roll around.  I played ultimate in the blazing heat and sun and had a ton of fun.  It was a tough hour to be running back and forth in the heat and I was completely exhausted but I did my best to push through it and keep others motivated.  It was a close game where the score was back and forth but everybody was always in the game and that kept the game.  Everybody left with smiles including myself.  It was a great day in the sun and I hope we have more like it this year.

First Day Of PE

Today, the grade 9's had to go to an assembly so we had choice with mr Davis.  I played volleyball on a team with Kris, Nick, and Desmond.
