We are getting ready to start the President's Challenge testing for third through fifth grades. We will be testing abdominal strength, upper body strength, flexibility, speed and agility, and cardiovascular endurance. These tests are strenuous and will be easier for your student if they prepare for them in advance. Have them perform curl-ups(sit-ups), push-ups or pull-ups, and stretches for the lower body. Also include a regular jogging or walking program for them (3-4 times per week for at least 20 minutes).
