Circuit Training
· This is where a whole class can participate in a variety of different exercises all at once. There are different ways of planning a Circuit Training Session
· Pupils move from one activity station to another, experiencing different activities
· Pupils can develop and improve their Strength, Flexibility and Cardio-vascular endurance (heart & lung fitness)
· Pupils can have control over the pace at which they work, and can easily monitor their effort levels, reducing or increasing them according to how they feel
· The Work/rest intervals (explained in the exemplar material) can allow pupils to sustain physical activity for an extended period.
