Attention all 7th and 8th Grade PE Students!!!! Let the posting begin. Choose 3 of the 5 workouts to complete over break. Post only the workout number (1-5), then how many rounds you completed, heart rate before workout, and heart rate right after workout.
Please write them down on your workout sheet as well and answer the question of muscle groups on the sheet only. Encourage each other and commend one another!
