Exercise name: Jump Jacks, Jump Rope, and Treadmill work out

Description:  10-minute jumping jacks, jump rope work out, and 30 minutes on the treadmill at speed 4.0 and 5.0 and 10-minute cool down at a speed of 3.7.

Duration: 40 minutes

Distance: 2 miles

HR: pre-work out: 79bmp
        post work out: 116bmp

Reflection: This week in class we discussed how we would teach 5th graders about aerobic and anaerobic exercises. I thought of jumping jacks and jump roping as a fun way to teach 5th graders about the two differences. Today, I started my workout with a ten-minute jumping jack and jump rope workout that I found on livestrong.com. The work out was as follows: start by jumping rope for two minutes. Then, perform jumping jacks for one minute. Jump rope again for two minutes with alternating knee lifts, and follow that with two minutes of jumping jacks. Finish the workout with two minutes of rope jumping, jumping on one leg for five hops, then switching to the other leg for five hops. Finish with one minute of jumping jacks. I could feel my heart going faster as I jumped faster, allowing me to feel the anaerobic change in the work out. Afterwards, I did my usual 30 minutes on the treadmill, I didn't push myself as I wanted to on the treadmill today but I completed my usual alternating speeds between 4.0 and 5.0. I did do a 10-minute cool down this work out so my post work out HR was lower than usual. Today's work out was fun with the added jumping jacks and jump rope work out, it had me tired more, but I would do it again.
