Physical Education in Schools

I've been taking a GLP1 (Mounjaro) for a year now. Before I started, I read a couple books about how to get the most out of the medication. One piece of advice was strength training, so I started lifting and reformer Pilates. Both have been fantastic for my physical and mental health. I wish I would have learned about the importance of strength training in school!

Anyway, I came across this video about what it was like being the overweight girl in gym class and I could completely relate to the creator's story.

What do you think could be done to improve physical education for us big kids?

Gym Class Trauma

I just watched this video about the realities of gym class for plus size kids. I completely relate to what the creator talks about. It took me until well into adulthood before I finally found the right kind of exercise for me. Gym class was torture.

What do you think could be done to make physical education better for bigger kids?
