Phys Ed; Friday, Third Period [01/13].
Hopefully, everyone came into the gym that day dressed and ready for gym class, because Gladio planned to launch right into it.
"Today," he said, "now that we've got a little more time and the whole class period without me having to rush off somewhere else, we're going to cover some basics. First off, and most importantly, is stretching. You should always take the time to stretch, even if only a little bit, before doing any physical activity, and it's also a good idea to stretch afterwards, too. A little warm-up, and then a cool-down, to keep your muscles in the best shape without straining them too much. Then, after we stretch, we're just going to do a few basic exercises, so I can get a good idea on where you guys are at and what we can be working on. Most classes probably aren't going to be this intensive. Some classes will be. But after today, you'll also know some basic exercises that you can do practically anywhere in your own free time, as well, to keep it up through the week. We're going to cover," his hand went out to tick off the exercises by lifting a finger as he listed them, "jumping jacks, push ups, sit up, chin ups, lunges, sprints, and a rope climb. It might sound like a lot....and it probably will be...but it's just a little of each, so hopefully, it won't be too bad.
"Besides," he cracked a grin, "you'll have the whole week to recover, right? Anyway." He clapped his hands together. "Let's get started."

Class Activity: Basic Exercises - Phys Ed, 01/13.
After that, he'll have everyone line up at one end of the gym and move across it entirely with lunges, and once those are over, it's time for a series of sprints, where he'll increase the distance of the sprint each time from a quarter of the way across the gym, then half, followed by three-quarters, and, finally, all the way from one side to the other.
And then, finally, it was time to see how high you can get up on the rope climb!
Good luck! It's definitely a step up from hackey sack, kids!

Somehow she managed to finish the rope climb without bringing the ceiling down.
