Our PE in '63 wasn't this demanding or close, but we were pretty fit from what we had to do. I started in baseball and basketball and after PE I was pretty beat down, the PE teacher was big on laps and flexibility.

1967, Kaplan High School. PE classes consisted of peg board, rope climbing, basketball, dodge ball and medicine ball volleyball. You had 3 throws and catches to get the medicine ball over the net.
We also had a coach writing a paper on teaching boys how to shoot free throws by using smaller rims with regulation basketballs.

Another (probably fact) that there are maybe 20x more unhealthy food options that are a fraction of the price of eating healthy. More to it than just going to a PE class.

Willing to bet the average OT kids eat like shite and are overweight. People are lazy and indulge in shite food and alcohol way too frequently. It trickles down to the kids.
Damn shame seeing fat little fricks everywhere these days.

Back in the day during PE class…..we had fitness training similar to the video and then had to pass a fitness test. I didn’t care for the rope climb to the gym ceiling.

did you not listen to the video... thats an add for one guys program. Who knows if any school actually did that.

Why is testosterone so much lower than just 20 years ago?

I’d also argue in the 60s was peak Vietnam war so I bet the govt was pressuring public schools to make sure young men were fit for the draft
I thought this as well.

I need this circa 199-99. I got the PPF award four times. Didn't realize these were tested for high schoolers, ours stopped at 8th grade.

I did. The point of the thread is that high schools today wouldn’t even be ALLOWED to implement a fitness program like this. Your subsequent post about the color of the shorts is even further proof. As little as five years ago, we would give wall jumps or up/downs as punishment for misbehaving at school. Take a guess as to whether we can still do that.
Those who continue to interpret this as some kind of “flex” are also missing the point.

You can find kids like that every where now a days as well. Graduated in 11 and we had plenty of physically fit people in school. Y’all are exaggerating or need to go to a different school.

Was this PE coach racist? Where are all the black kids?

Physical Education is not even required in some places.
