Fitness Log

Directions: Read about your Fitness Log and how to complete it below. Then complete the Fitness Log Agreement Statement assignment at the bottom of the page.

What Is a Fitness Log?

Your Fitness Log is where you record your daily physical activity as part of your PE class. Since you are taking an online PE class you do not have the face to face exercise time with your teacher each day. Instead, it is your responsibility to complete at least 40 minutes of physical activity of your choice on your own each day and record it in your Fitness Log. Your Fitness Log tracks the types of activity and duration you spend. You should see improvement in your overall fitness during the semester.

Where Is My Fitness Log Located?

Your Fitness Log is located in Edgenuity. From your student dashboard click on your PE course.

What Do I Do If I Am Sick or Injured?

If you are sick or injured you must notify your PE teacher immediately to work out a plan on how you will still complete your daily fitness log.

Depending on how long you will need to recover we may have you:

- Do extra minutes on a different day to make up for the ones you miss.
- Do modified exercises. For example if you sprained your ankle you can still sit in a chair and do arm exercises.
- Complete an alternate assignment to make up missing days - this is for severe cases with more than one week of missed log entries.
