HIIT - Week 8 - Second Session

Today we did HIIT, (High Intensity Interval Training) and our exercises were: push ups, tap steps, sit ups, and star jumps. We have been doing HIIT for 15 weeks and we do HIIT twice a week. First session is on Monday, and our second session is on Thursday. Unfortunately only a few students in HIIT managed to get to the red zone. I was really impressed in myself, because I started of struggling, but I stayed on the red zone for the whole HIIT session. My favourite exercise today is the sit ups. That is because for sit ups, we got into pairs and locked our legs in together so that we don't lift our legs up. My least favourite exercise today was push ups. I didn't like push ups because, every time we do push ups my arm gets sore. However, I will still persevere and do everything I can.

HIIT - Term 3 - Week 5 - Session 2

Today we had our second session HIIT. (High Intensity Interval Training) We've been doing 5 weeks of HIIT this term. Like usually, the HIIT group were asked to give some HIIT workouts and in this session, these were our workouts or exercises. At the beginning of our HIIT session, I was really surprised because I was the first one to get to the red zone. Which is really impressive.
1. Push Ups
2. Squats
3. Tap Step
4. Star Jumps

Out of all these four exercises my favourite exercise is Tap Step. This is because Tap Step is like a dances move, and it's very interesting to do. Now lets get back to HIIT. In this session our leaders were Mataio, Tiava, Zane, and Lyric. For our warm up, our leaders showed us some Fortnite moves, and we all were to follow them. In the middle of our HIIT session, we had a technical difficulty that lasted the whole session, it was the music, and the music stopped working. However Mrs Anderson guided us and gave us a countdown so that we know when to start each exercise. It was pretty challenging with out the music, but everyone work as a team, and cooperated and tried their best to get to the red zone.

HIIT: Term 3 - Week 4

Today we had our second session for week 4 of HIIT. Unfortunately I wasn't able to post our previous session of HIIT because I did not take in it due to a injured arm. In this session we were only to do two activities. These activities are push ups and star jumps. We did at east 6 sets of each. In this session a new leader joined. It was Lyric. So in this session our leaders were Tiava, Zane, Mataio, and Lyric.

HIIT - Term 3 - Week 3

Today, we had our first session for the week, and the fifth session this term. Like usual we formed four lines of five. For today's session, our activities were High Knee Sprint, Tap Step, Mountain Climbers, and Star Jumps. We were to do each of these activities for 20 seconds and we had a 10 second break, however during the break we were not allowed to stand still. So we were moving around and stretching our legs and arms. In this session we were joined by the two people who run the research (Nigel and Jackie) and a representative of sports Auckland (Georgie).

HIIT Training - Week 1 Term 3

This term we had our second session of HIIT. (High Intensity Interval Training) During HIIT our challenge was to get Huffed and Puffed which is also known as Pau Ta Hau. In this session we were do these following activities. We did Star Jumps, Tap Steps, and High Knee Sprints. Our goal was to do one of these activities as much as we could in 30 seconds. After 30 seconds we got another 30 seconds to calm down. However we weren't allowed to stand still, we have to be moving the whole time. Tiava and Mataio, stepped up and helped the HIIT group with the techniques and taught us some new moves we could do while we're resting. This session we did something very different from our previous session. This session we were spit into groups of five. All groups were to form a line. Each line contained about 5 students. After that when the session started, all of the students in each line were to do those activity in sync.

HIIT

This week for HIIT, ( High Intensity Interval Training) we were to do different exercises. For these exercises we needed to have a lot of strength. As some of you might know last week we were focusing on split squat, split squat jumps, split squat pulse and tap step or star jumps, and the session before we were focusing on squats, squat jumps, and etc. As you see for the pass two sessions we were focusing on squats, however this session we are focusing on pull ups, push ups and squats.

For this session we were to form into pairs then find two other pairs to form groups of six. Then each pair have a station to work in. Jack (my partner) and I we in the pull up station. Coree and Noveah, we in the push up station and finally Miki and John were in the squats station.
