Normally, we perform stationary bodyweight exercises, but with this project we can and will add resistance, balance, strength, coordination, and joint stability. This will help us become and stay fit! The trainers will help us change our body composition on a faster timeline while also working muscular strength and endurance! I see us using these bodyweight systems as part of a circuit or stations type workout. I can teach and guide the students on using the trainer and when all students are proficient we can make it an individual workout or include it in a larger workout. By placing the system in the gym we can use it with all PE classes as they rotate throughout the year. I imagine over 600 students will be using the trainer over the course of one year.
