Fitness: My Body is My Temple
About the Course:
Respecting your body and becoming a healthier you!
The aim of the course is to get you to start thinking critically about your well-being. It seems that we are always told to be physically active and eat healthy, but we are never told how! We have the desire to take care of our bodies and our health but there are so many barriers stopping us; whether it is a lack of knowledge of “how to” or simply just finding the time. In this course we want to allow students the time to reflect on daily habits and how they can find a way to incorporate a healthier lifestyle that they enjoy!
Course Learning Objective
- Recognize the issues stopping you from a healthy lifestyle
- Figure out what fitness means to you
- Gain the tools necessary to implement fitness
- Find a physical activity that you enjoy
- Feel empowered to make the change to treat your body as a temple!
The class is two hours with one hour as the exercise portion in which students will participate in a variety of physical activities. Each week is a different group physical activity to help broaden the students view of exercise, along with introducing them to activities that they can join that are on/nearby campus. The other hour is the discussion portion in which we will discuss tips for incorporating healthier eating options into your daily life. For instance, we will cover topics like time management, nutrition, hydration and so forth.
