New Fitness Component

Fitness and Conditioning

Written by Nakaja Weaver

The newest edition to our school’s weight room is the fitness coach, Ms. Wright, who will collaborate with the weight room coach.  The fitness coaches aid athletes that are not in season with preseason training. The coaches also educate athletes about fitness and how to properly use the equipment in the room. A new component that is used in the room is the Volt app. The app allows individuals to build and follow a workout plan. The weight room is expanding, and Ms. Wright would like to get more students involved. When asked about the goal for the weightroom, Ms. Wright, said, “I want students who never went in there to be comfortable in there and some students to be involved in afterschool activity.” The weight room is open on Tuesdays through Thursdays after school from 2:30-4:00 pm.  Those interested must register on FamilyID.com and must have a cleared sports physical.
