Short Tuesday
We barely had time for roll call, some stretching and 2 rounds of exercise let alone activity time today. It's tough when we only have 44 minutes of class time and 20 of that is getting dressed. Oh well. Tomorrow is another day.

Welcome Back
School has been back in session for 3 weeks now and I have been from paternity leave for the past week. I didn't miss much, only 3 days of dressing. We spent last week working on the fundamentals. It doesn't matter if kids had taken my class before or they are brand new every class worked the basics. Learning and relearning the Pushup, the Situp, the Squat, the Plank and the poor man's Burpee(no pushup).
I am trying something new with the second year classes. I am having them chose teams/groups of 8 to work in. I hope this will help get the students more involved in class by having the teams create and lead workouts and teach them about working together. This should help me with my class management as well. Both second year classes are large 48 and 68.
Last week we only has one WOD. 2 classes ran the mile for the first time. Great results and a terrible outcome with the other.
Today's WOD
AMRAP 10 minutes
10 Jumping Jacks
60m run
10 Mt.Climbers
60m run
The first WOD a class does is a real eye-opener, a window to the souls of the students and the class as a whole. I could see who was willing to work, who will fight it tooth and nail, who are the drama queens(male and female)and the slackers.
I have high expectations for all of my classes and today showed me where I need to focus for the best results.
