Author Topic: The cries of a beta male - PE/Sports class.  (Read 4444 times)

PE should actually teach you legit ways to stay in shape.  It's physical Education.. but all they teach you is how to play sports?  That doesn't make any sense.  It's not even physical education, it is sports education.  

PE as it stands is a waste of time and grade.

i remember when PE was just doing warmups for 10 minutes then playing a game.

Can you clarify what you mean by that?

I think gym equipment is kind of necessary for Phys. Ed.  Without equipment there's not a lot you can do...

I'm talking weights, treadmills etc.
But schools in Alabama don't have the money for anything which blows.

Sports class/PE =/= Competitive sports.

If they taught you an excessive regimen to follow it'd be incredibly loving boring and you'd never do it.

Most normal children can't get enough of loving awesome games like dodgeball, and since it calls for constant movement, it's basically a super badass cardio excercise that does nothing but benefit you. I mean, you have a ton of fun, your heart gets stronger, you have more energy. I mean, you'd have to be a loving dumbass to not take advantage of it.

Keeping fit =/= sports

Sports are a skill and an interest as far as I'm concerned. Being active is entirely different, sport just happens to include that as a side point.
Still, we all know there are people like you who won't try to be fit.

This, my ideal PE class would be one where we get to use the gym, lift a bunch of weights, using excercise bicycles/rafts, running machines, etc, i love those.
at my high school when i took the combined health/PE class, the weight room was stuff. half the machines were covered in rust and missing very obvious support pieces, and weight-room day typically involved everyone just milling around the room pretending to be busy.
it's much cheaper to just get you to throw balls at each other than to spend $500 on a single treadmill.

They do benefit you. It's probably the only exercise you get in the run of a week.
If they let everyone do things at their own pace, nobody would do stuff. That's how school works.

They aren't teaching you ways to stay in shape. It's up to the individual to do that. But they are at least getting you off your ass for an hour to do something physically demanding. That's probably one of the few things a lot of you kids actually need.

That's like saying "I don't like eventing because most of it is people like IcyGamma boosting their epeens with "computers"

Hardly.

There's a walking class in my school where we also just stroll around the neighborhood. I quite enjoyed it
We had to run through muddy fields and we got detention if we didn't run :(
And this one time a horse almost attacked a guy i used to know.

You're implying that everybody hates simply excercising.
I was talking about that people should have a choice, and not be forced to do one or the other.

Would you rather spend your class time doing star jumps and jogging or would you rather have fun with your friends and play dodgeball?

Sports are good for you. Enjoy them and stop being a lazy mope.

Nah, more like 20 years old and would rather make a commentary on Dodgeball: The Game and say how much it sucks.

Man, I loving love dodgeball, especially since I'm always a target when it gets down to the last 8
