Help me give my students incentives and opportunity to become the best they can be.The bar collars are essential to safety in the weight room. The rest of the items will help develop strength, speed, agility, and flexibility.
My kids are low income students who have never had a strength coach in their building. We are changing a culture and helping build a better future.
They are good kids who are excited about lifting weights and training to become better athletes and I hope better people.
We are developing programs to teach work ethic to help them achieve their athletic goals, which can teach them how to be successful both on and off the athletic fields and courts.
My Project
I teach in an amazing community. They have been incredible in their efforts to build a quality fitness center. Unfortunately despite all of their help we still have some major needs.
Safety is priority one in the fitness center.
This is where I need your help. We need bar collars to for our students to safely the equipment in the fitness center. Bar collars are a must to have a safe weight room. These will keep kids for getting hurt. The stretch bands will allow students to work individually at different levels. I have a mixed classes by grade, gender as well as sports teams. Thank you for helping them build healthy habits and improve their quality of life.
