Start Early With Functional Fitness And Physical Education For Students
The journey of becoming fit and healthy ideally starts at a young age. Middle and High School are important places for young adults to try different ways of exercising and find their perfect way of working out.
One of the options for students at Tacoma Park Middle School in Maryland is a brand-new MoveStrong Functional training room. The installation marks the 9th school in Montgomery County school district in Maryland, that MoveStrong has developed a unique fitness area for; and makes the school part of over 30 elementary, middle, and high schools across the country with MoveStrong indoor and outdoor training sites.
All of these schools are different, however, one thing they all have in common is the transformation of their physical fitness space into a more functional, movement-based workout area.
Layout and design completed to provide a mixture of MoveStrong equipment, training tools, storage solutions, with select HIIT cardio stations and strength training options.
Select HIIT cardio stations, a pull-up bracket system with stall bars and rope ladders, as well as Omni strength bars allow for students to take part in group fitness training, and move freely to get functional fit and have fun!
Additional advantage: NovaWall FTS can be customized in height for any student to perform Bodyweight and calisthenics training.
“We are passionate about supporting todayβs youth in promoting more functional movement and strength-based activities to create strong sound bodies. We realize the importance of creating healthy habits early in youth development to help promote an active and fit lifestyle. MoveStrong philosophy and style of exercise, using functional fitness and multi-direction movement-based skills, is exactly what our youth needs to combat a sedentary lifestyle while developing true strength, stamina, balance, agility, and self-confidence. Our youth, especially while in school, are sitting way too much and need an outlet that is fun and engaging, while challenging, to combat issues that come with a sedentary lifestyle as we age.”
