Speedball

Speed ball

     On Thursday, October 30th , we played a game called speed ball. The rules are, there are 3 soccer balls, in-game at the same time, and its played with the same rules as soccer but if you are able to catch the ball, then it can be played like America football. I found the game really fun, even if I played in the pouring rain. I especially liked how you were always running at all times and it was really enjoyable seeing people having fun and trying. I scored 2 goals, but I could have  scored more, but I passed it to other people so they get a chance to play. I would love to play that game again, but in the sun or snow!

Steel Workout

STEEL Workout

   On Thursday, October 23rd, we watched a workout video. I didn't like it that much, but it was not bad. I didn't like how most of the exercises weren't running, or energetic ones but it also helped me focus on things I don't usually do on fitness days like different ways to stretch , different types of cardio and strength exercises. If you are interested, heres the video in the link below:

Capture The Flag


Capture The Flag

   On Tuesday, October 21th , we did a game called capture the flag, but instead of flags we used bean bags. We had some trouble organizing the teams, as 1 team was stronger than the other. Fortunately, we pulled it through thanks to our grade 10's leadership skills. I enjoyed it very much but I didn't like how it was unfair at some times and some people just wasn't trying. So I went in the other team, and I tried to help them but I had to return back to mine due to confusion. In the end, I liked how some people were trying and having fun! Keep up with that attitude!

Indoor-Circuit

Indoor Circuit

   On Friday, the 16th, we did a fitness exercise called "Indoor Circuit". How it works is: there are 12 stations, and you have to keep rotating from station 1 to station 12. You and your group members have 45 seconds to work out in each station. Some of the stations were: the obstacle course , where you have to navigate through cones and go under hockey nets to get out,  and many more. I  liked all of them and I really pushed myself to work hard during those 45 seconds. I am not sore anymore, as I stretched a lot before completing the exercises and I am damn proud of myself.

Loco-locomotion

  Last Friday I did this fitness exercise called Loco-locomotion in the upper field. I didn't enjoy is as much as I usually do, as I tried giving it my all but it had just rained and the grass was wet which made it hard to run. Loco motion is basically ten exercises, first set for 30 seconds, second for 1 minute, and then the last set for 30 seconds. Overall, I would rate this experience a 8 / 10 , mostly because of the wet grass.

Pond Run


 Well, I am a bit late for this post as I had difficulties setting my blog. The pond run was fun and I felt really proud of myself as I never walked once when we had to run. This year, I decided to take fitness seriously and always try my best. Last year, I didn't put much time into P:E because I had other things to focus on like Math. Anyway, I was really tired after the pond run but I still enjoyed it.
 Hard work pays off!
