Fun Workout Challenges For Community And Students At Hugh J Boyd School

Physical education in school sets the tone for healthy habits during adulthood. MoveStrong supports children with this important step in their development by creating an environment of fun workouts and challenges. Focusing on serving the different needs of students and faculty, MoveStrong has created a hybrid training layout that allows to target various skill levels and exercise goals.  

A concept that convinced Hugh J Boyd Elementary School in Seaside Heights School District, New Jersey.  They believe in the MoveStrong outdoor functional fitness site to contribute to their efforts in helping both students and teachers grow not only academically, but also socially and emotionally.

Over 200 students get to experience a mix of proven FitGround equipment, obstacle exercises, balance challenges, and stretching possibilities.

The Zones

Conditioning

The first zone is a conditioning area that incorporates a mix of versatile, scalable equipment targeting functional fitness, strength, and mobility. Cardiovascular and endurance-based fitness stations challenge stamina and functional fitness. A tire-flip station allows to build true strength, conditioning, and power, and students can choose from an elevate trainer, adjustable dip attachments, kick plate, and various bars to perform upper body bodyweight exercises.

 

Youth

Zone number two is designed for youth fitness. Balance steps, a zig-zag beam, agility posts, and a monkey bar improve balance, agility, and overall athleticism with calisthenics and obstacle workouts. This area also includes stations for those that need wheelchair access to fitness stations. Handcycle, shoulder rotator, lat pulldown, and a chest press station offer numerous exercise possibilities.

 

Functional Fitness & Obstacles

High energy, stress relieving and fun HIIT sessions can be completed in the third zone. The centerpiece is a T-Rex 12-post system that allows for a wide variety of functional fitness exercises, bodyweight resistance movements, free form, and calisthenics training to maximize core strength and stability. Users can challenge their physical fitness, and improve endurance, coordination, and power by conquering obstacles, or performing exercises with heavy bags, battle ropes, stall bars, and plyo steps. Bye-bye boring workouts!

The available stretching and flexibility stations are a great way to warm up or finish off any session.

 

Track

Graphics for safety and exercise guidance are implemented in the last zone. They build a 4-lane track with sleds for sprint exercises that help develop full-body power and improve conditioning. 40 yards are equipped with agility dots for improved coordination, quick motion, and balance.
