University of Broadford - Get Fit Fridays

University of Broadford - Get Fit Fridays.

This year in our University of Broadford course we have been doing Get Fit Fridays. We have been training hard to get our bodies fitter, healthier and stronger. We discussed and tried to measure our resting heart rate before each session to see if there were any changes.

First of all, we were given basic exercises with little equipment and we worked our way round in a circuit trying our best to do as much as possible. We were in pairs and showed reciprocity by helping one another. We then began adding in more equipment and were allowed to move around the exercises based on what we wanted to try and do. These included javelins, hurdles, weights, speed bounces, tennis rackets and much more!

After this, we designed our own workout with ten exercises that we were planning on teaching to our peers. We had to plan and prepare the equipment used and how we would explain it to others. 

After rehearsing in smaller groups, we each then had a go at teaching the whole group of children our exercises. For some of us it was quite challenging but some of us enjoyed it and found it exciting!

We are so proud of this year's Get Fit Fridays graduates!
