You're learning about the benefits of different physical activities, and you know running is so good for you, but you're having trouble staying motivated. Try Spotify Running! If you already use Spotify, the app uses music catered to your musical interests! What it does is give you a personalized playlist for your workout based on your pace. In music, we usually use "beats per minute" to denote the rhythm, so Spotify connects this to your steps per minute to pick songs at that same pace. Hopefully this helps you get out and moving!

There is an app named AD Driven which features Adrian Peterson (NFL Running Back) and has a strength, agility, and speed program that allows the user to follow and record. There are visual demonstrations and verbal cues to help explain movements and exercises.

This app seems great for young students who look up to famous athletes and want to look like them physically or be as successful as them in their sport.

This app can be found in the app store on your mobile device at the cost of $4.00!

I was searching through You tube and I found this awesome PowToon video in regards to the importance of physical activity! Since we worked with PowToon at the beginning of the semester, i thought it would further show how future teachers can use this app to help get their students to understand content in a way that is different from the standard textbook or note taking!

I like how this video talks about the multiple benefits toward one's physical, mental, and emotional being due to being physically active. Students who exercise and stay active reduce their chances of obesity, improve their ability to pay attention and do well in the classroom, and help with dealing with anxiety and stress levels. This Pow Too has evidence based information that back up its points. Students can definitely relate to this video and make changes that will benefit one's health moving forward! (Brandon Adler)

This Ted Talk emphasizes the benefits of a quality physical education program (Kevonna Ward).

Educator Paul Zientarski discusses how physical education has changed throughout the years to focus more on cardiovascular conditioning, health and wellness. In physical education classes today, students are exposed to a variety of activities from kayaking to dances and team building games. In his talk, Zientarski strives to prove how and why "exercise is like fertilizer for the brain" that serves to improve one's overall health. (Kevonna Ward)
