REVIEW:
Information and resources at this site will be useful to educators
and students as well as the general public. The Get Fit America
section of the site has a wealth of free resources for keeping fit
and healthy such as health and fitness tips, healthy recipes, a
fitness library of exercises for creating your own workout, discussion
boards for posting questions and answers and much more. A section
especially geared toward youth fitness features information fact
sheets, youth fitness questions and answers, articles on what parents
can do and teaching kids to effectively exercise, and the Operation
FitKids Curriculum. This curriculum (a $99.95 value) is available
for free to educators as a public service of ACE. The curriculum
has seven lessons that are geared to grades 3-5 and teach youngsters
“the dangers of being overweight and the importance of a healthy
and active lifestyle”. The entire program can be downloaded
in PDF format. Additionally, there are links to fitness headlines,
ACE News and a fitness tip of the day.
