Year 4 PE Challenge

6^th January 2021

WALT – Make our hearts beat faster by designing our own fitness circuit

How to take part in the challenge…..

Below is a video link explaining the challenge:

To take part in the challenge you will need:

• Enough space to complete exercises comfortably
• A watch/timer
• Access to the internet to research some ideas

You will spend 60s completing each action. You can choose to have a rest period between exercises or go straight into the next exercise!

Stations 3, 4 and 5 = you can choose the remaining 3 activities. Here is some guidance:

• One activity must work your leg muscles, one must work your arm/shoulder muscles and one must work your core/stomach muscles
• You must actually be able to do the exercises/activities well! Do not choose activities that you can only perform badly as this risks injury.
• If in doubt, choose simple activities!
• When researching ideas, you want to find ‘bodyweight only’ moves. Do not try and use other objects

Decided how many rounds you will complete – off you go!

Repeat you circuit a day or two later. Change one of the following:

• Try to increase the time you spend on each exercise
• Try to decrease the rest in between each exercise
• Try to complete more repetitions of each exercise than the previous day each round

Good luck!
