9 TRAINING METHODS MethodDefinitionExamples ContinuousMovement that lasts several minutes without rest periods. -3-5 minutes for primary grades -10 minutes for older elementary students -20 minutes for secondary IntervalAlternating short bursts of activity with rest periods. Jump rope at a high intensity for 1 minute, then walk in place for 1 minute swinging rope by side. CircuitSeveral different exercises that vary in intensity or type. Students rotate around various “fitness stations” for a set amount of time for each station.
