Oftentimes, what keeps us from achieving our fitness goals is motivation. Who wants to do 100 crunches after a long day of work when your bed looks so enticing?

The Effects of the Pandemic on Physical Education School-Aged Children – PHE America

The global pandemic has wreaked havoc on academics, classrooms, and physical education. There is no doubt physical education and the physical development of children during their developmental years were greatly affected by the pandemic.
