Help me give my students a better experience in our weight room. The equipment in our weight room is around 17 years old. I would like to update the weight room.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

We do a lot of power lifting in our weight room. So the buckets will help hold the chalk for each rack. We only have about 5 lifting belts so adding multiple sizes would help tremendously with our lifting. having 10 of each side will help each sport that comes to the weight room and to make sure that everyone has a size that works for them!

We also do a lot of field work.

Cones and ladders we use almost daily with all the different sports. Having enough to handle around 100 young athletes at at time is key to efficiency.

Our student athletes are great. They have been working extremely hard and have been setting records for the school. I am trying to give them the best experience possible. Adding these items will help give them adequate reps and safety in the weight room.
