Program • Until E2C is incorporated into Cyber Campus units will use the stand alone Access database • Each student will take a diagnostic test, performing all 19 exercises • This can be performed over several days or a few weeks based on class schedules • Once scores are entered into the database, a 36-week work-out routine will be generated • The routine will be based on the individual’s baseline, age and gender

  9. Program • A typical class may go as follows: • Warm-up/Stretch • Pick 6 or more exercises to perform depending on time • Ensure proper form and technique • Students will strive to complete the number of repetitions indicated on their personal workout plan • Cool-down/Stretch • During the next class period, students will perform 6 different exercises

  10. Safety/Liability • First Aid/CPR • Instructors required to have American Red Cross First Aid / CPR, or American Heart Association CPR • AFJROTC will fund biannual certification • Obtain certification and keep in unit files for inspection • Permission Slips • A Parent/Guardian will sign letter of understanding of wellness program requirements and state any known health concerns or limitations on the consent form. • Students and instructors must follow school district policy for physical and extracurricular activity
