11. Fitness Center 0 The overall goal is having all students through self - evaluation, create and implement a personal fitness plan to be carried out over ten weeks

12. Fitness Center 0 The Fitnessgram is administrated to students as a self-evaluation tool to provide direction in the development of a fitness plan

13. Exercise 0 Recommend 150 minutes of exercise a week 0 There are 10,080 minutes in a week… 0 30 minutes a day-5 days a week 0 And at least 2 days of muscle strengthening exercises Easy right? Where do we go wrong?

14. Common Mistakes made in the gym… 0 Doing long bouts of cardio 0 if you've been pounding the pavement or the treadmill with nothing to show for it (except sore joints and a pair of stinky worn out sneakers), you already know it takes a lot of effort to get minimal results. Short, high intensity intervals

15. Common Mistakes made in the gym… 0 Doing isolated exercises… 0 e.g.- tricep curls, bicep curls 0 isolated exercises are not functional -- meaning there's little to no crossover to any real life activities; worse yet, they don't recruit enough muscles to be effective at burning fat.

16. Common Mistakes made in the gym… 0 Using machines 0 The problem is this: 0 machines alter the way your body naturally moves, this severely limits your ability to fully activate all of your muscles fibers -- that means less fat burning and less muscle definition; worse yet, machines can cause excessive strain on your joints. LADIES…lifting heavier weights, will NOT make you get "big" or look like one of those muscle-clad women on the cover of a bodybuilding magazine -- not even close!

17. Common Mistakes made in the gym… 0 Doing crunches and sit-ups to get a 6 pack 0 if you want washboard abs, doing traditional ab exercises like crunches and sit-ups WILL NOT get you a six pack. 0 the key to getting sculpted abs is to burn off that stubborn layer of belly fat that's hiding them

18. Common Mistakes made in the gym… 0 Repeating the same work-out routines over and over 0 if you want to keep making progress and keep seeing changes in your body, you've got to start switching things up; your body has an amazingly ability to adapt quickly and when it does, you stop making progress It only takes 3 weeks for your body to adapt to a work- out routine (at which point you stop getting results)

19. Common Mistakes made in the gym… 0 Doing long work-outs 0 your body responds to quality over quantity 0 longer workouts do NOT equal better or faster results; if you've been slaving away at the gym and your body isn't visibly changing, you can't do more of the same thing and expect a different result. 0 Fitness is INTENSITY dependent…not time dependent. (F.I.T.)
