Modified Pull Up 2

Mr. Moberg's Physical Education Class
Modified Pull Up Assessment July 28, 2010

Male 14+ = Healthy
Female 4+ = Healthy

Prepation that students could have performed in to get ready for Mr. Mobergs assessment could have been core exercises. Maybe some back and bicep workouts as well, but i would emphasize more of the core training.

Improvement for the student would come more from strengthening the back and upper arms. They are the sources that are generating the most power and go along with a strong core for stability.

July 28th Assessment -

Today's test had Mr. Moberg's students doing the modified pull up for the second time. I observed how he watched them during the movement. The students seemed more comfortable doing the movement since they had performed 2 weeks ago.


Preparation that we engaged in were some high intensity core workouts.

Once again as expected there were form problems. This move in this position will almost always generate form problems from people who are not exercise guru's. It is not the easiest form to master.

all of the students regardless reached the number that put them into a healthy zone.

Maintaining healthy eating habits and lifting in the gym will help form and core problems.
