The application of strength and conditioning principles and concepts are built into the national standards and grade-level outcomes; however, the prevailing FITT formula does not meet the needs of students today. Instead of one standard workout program for all, students need to learn about a nonlinear, or undulating, program that provides options for training different ways. Many students are exposed to fitness activities off campus when attending gyms, seeing infomercials on tv, and lifting with their sport coach but may need a quality physical education program to ensure adequate learning of up-to-date research into strength and conditioning.
