Now at my school though, it is not just Gym. We have a selection on physical classes. A whole variety of dance classes, Gym, Lifelong Fitness, Walking Low Impact, and Bowling.
They are all worth 1/4 of a creit and we need a 1/2 of credit worth of physical activity. I am taking Lifelong Fitness this 9 weeks and Gym the nest 9 weeks. About two years ago, all we had was Gym and it was worth the 1/2 credit, but not they changed it all up. I hate it.
We don't have swimming though. I wouldn't be comfortable enough to swim anyways. Yes, the routine is great. I like how we get ready, do attendance, do stretching, we walk, and then we can choose the activity or weight room. I am mainly in the weight room because I am lazy and I can get away with doing some stuff and then just sitting there.
