Get It Up, Your Heart Rate That Is: Full Body Experience
The other night I felt the need to get my heart rate up and to sweat.

PE Goes From Dodge Ball to Circuit Training
In an effort to help end childhood obesity many physical education classes are changing their focus in schools nationwide as more gym teachers strive to teach individual activities that students can incorporate into their lives outside of gym class.
