BODY TONING CLASS
SYLLABUS
Course Objective: This class is designed to inform students of various aerobic and anaerobic activities that will help shape and tone the body. Students will be expected to learn and demonstrate various lifts and spotting techniques. Students will also learn how to design a fitness program based on specific needs and goals of the individual.
Course Overview: Students will be divided up into different groups based on their individual needs and goals for the class. At that time a program will be designed for the individual and will be carried out on a daily basis by the student. Different activities will include weight lifting, cardiovascular activity (running, cycling, etc.), abdominal exercises, yoga, pilates, plyometrics, and more!
Expectations: I expect you to be serious about weight training and conditioning. This class will demand a lot of you physically and mentally. If you come in with the mindset that you want to better yourself, then you will get something out of this class and see results. There will be activities that you may not enjoy and may struggle doing, but all I ask is that you do your best.
Since this is a physical education class, you will be expected to dress out on a daily basis, unless otherwise told. The dressing out policy that we have in PE follows the county-wide dress code.
Dressing out means: ~Shorts, Jogging pants, etc.
- Shorts must be no higher than 3 inches from kneecap
~T-shirt or Sweatshirt
- Shirts must cover the shoulders
~ Tennis shoes that tie
Dressing out means NO: ~Jeans, Khakis, Skirts, etc.
~Dressy Shirts
~Flip-flops, Dress Shoes, etc.
~ Tank tops, Halters, etc.
We were very fortunate in the last few years to be able to create a weight room specifically for the body toning classes. Since most of the equipment is new, we need to do our best to take care of it. If any damage is done to the equipment, the student will be expected to pay for the repair/replacement. In addition, we will need to clean/wipe down the equipment often so that it will last.
Materials needed: -$8.00 PE Fee (this money goes into PE equipment)
-Appropriate clothing and shoes for dressing out
Please turn in: -Insurance Waiver Forms
-Syllabus with Parent’s signature
-Field Trip Permission Form
Grading: You will be graded in several different areas that will include the following:
-Dressing Out 15%
-Participation 50%
-Test/Demonstration 25%
-Record Keeping 10%
-You will begin each week with a grade of 100 for your dressing out grade and a 100 for your participation grade. For each time you do not dress out, 20 points will be deducted from you weekly dressing out grades. Participation points will be deducted at teachers discretion, with each day being worth 20 points for the weekly grade.
-Test/Demonstrations: You are going to be tested in different areas of this class. I not only want you to reach whatever goals you have, but to gain knowledge in this area. Test information will include everything from information on different lifts to how to develop a weight training program.
-Record Keeping: Each day you will be expected to keep a log of the lifts and exercises that you are doing as well as the amount weight, repetitions, sets, etc. This will be explained in detail in class.
Absences Being present at school is very important for a student to be successful throughout their school career. If you are absent from the this class, you are expected to bring in excuse note. Points will be deducted for unexcused absences.
Participation
You will be asked to participate in class everyday unless you have a note from a doctor explaining why you should not participate as well as for how long you may not be able to participate. A parent’s note will not be sufficient if you are to sit out of participating for any length of time. I do understand there are some extenuating circumstances and those will be handled on an individual basis, but please get a doctor’s note if you have a sickness or injury that may lead to not being able to participate.
