They do preach that message. It is called "lip service". The fact is that the public school system taking fitness seriously accomplishes little to nothing. The students themselves have to take it seriously. Schools have next to no control over that.

My buddy got his MET and he had to take 2 PE classes. So he took walking and bowling. How fucking hard is that? Hell, he didn't even have to walk or bowl and still aced the class.

I think its a great idea. Get the lazy fucks off their asses. Im one of them, I had to recently force myself to get off the internet so much and start excercising again, after problems and 3rd degree burns I was lazier than ever.
I disgust myself with my fatness, and other fat people disgust me too. Maybe showing them how they cant even run the bases anymore will open their eyes. Im all for the regulation of food and excercise in schools, of all levels, by the governement. Military Service too. The older I get, the more I hate young people. ![]() |

I applaud the school on the idea just not on the execution. I'm not saying anything that hasn't already been said in this thread but... A sound body does make a sound mind. They were given the requirements in 2006, 4 FUCKING YEARS AGO. They chose to ignore it and now it is biting them in the ass so they complain about it. I agree BMI may not be the best way to measure obesity but at the same time on the point of students having to 'disclose that kind of medical information' is BS, it's not like it is something an observer can't see on a day to day basis, you are fat it's not some kind of medical secret only you and your doctor know. This kind of policy should be put into effect in all public schools but required for all children. As far as in college I think what would help here is if the 'skinny' people had to take some kind of nutrition class. Just because you aren't overweight doesn't mean you are healthy. Nutrition for the skinnies PE for the fatties everyone wins.

Do they get extra credit if their teacher is fat?
