Why Physical Education in Schools so shitty nowadays?

We only get two hours of Cardio a week, no wonder all the youths are betas and DYEL

What can be done about this?

Physical education was better in the past:

They are not forced to do it anymore.

Because physical education and strong emphasis on it generally correlates with Right-Wing, Fascist-esque elements of a society, also a stupid, unhealthy populace is easier to control and buys a lot more consumption shit.

Because it's all geared toward women these days. If a task cannot be completed by an obese pre pubescent girl it won't be graded.

I got more physical activity playing niggerball at recess than during PE.

Because the school administration, teachers, parents etc., are all unfit chubsters themselves so they place a low emphasis on the importance of fitness.

Dunno. Somehow it got unacceptable to expect kids to stay fit. Kinda pathetic that most can't run a kilometre, swim a few hundred metres or climb a rope. Considering all the health problems that come with it schools should have 3×2 hour mandatory sport sessions.

Pretty much this. You needed your youth in tiptop condition during the Cold War period, because the possibility of actual war was there, and you needed the best you could get.

When I grew up we had this supercool old timer in his 70s who still could do 100 pushups. He was tough as nails and I he trained us really hard. It made up for the occasional grandpa balls that fell through his shorts lel.

Coz school is for learning, not running.

I understand that u mexishits should stay fit to climb walls and run away from cartels, but in civilized world we need educated specialists.

>Why Physical Education in Schools so shitty nowadays?


Soldiers are less useful for a nation then consumers. If soldiers were more valuable you would see better physical education.

Our (((societies))) need people who earn money and spend it. In the best case avoiding a meaningful life at all.

>German wants to die for great leader

How typical. A daily reminder that any soldier/policeman is an enemy of people.

Education of the body is just as important (if not more so) as education of the mind. An overdeveloped mind in an underdeveloped body is not a complete human being.

Its good that way
If you are serious about sport and train alot by yourself, school PE is often annoying

Theres alot wrong with modern education though

>Because it's all geared toward women these days. If a task cannot be completed by an obese pre pubescent girl it won't be graded.
they separate gym classes by gender in high school though

also i think one of the things that's contributing to this is parents always trying to get children to play outside like that's just its own reward. parents need to accept that we live in a world where there are more interesting things to do indoors and just teach their kids about the importance of physical fitness instead of trying to mash it into their recreational time and having them inevitably not give a shit

Soldiers should come from the people
like in finnland or switzerland, mandatory conscription for everyone and a small professional force of officers/specialists

the West is turning slovenly

we should switch to East Asian fat tax, sugar tax, PE regiment and fat shaming

HEALTHINESS IS ABLEIST YOU FUCKING SHTILORD

>should

Greater good for society may-may :)

Not coincidentally getting fit makes you more elitist and confident

Now who could be against that...

Does anyone have an English translation of this?

scribd.com/doc/103323389/Reichsjugendfuehrung-HJ-Im-Dienst-Ausbildungsvorschrift-Fuer-Die-Ertuechtigung-Der-Deutschen-Jugend-1935-353-S-Scan-Fraktur

>greater good
nah
just make everyone less of a bitch

its outdated stupid shit
just head over to /fit/ and read the sticky

At least in my country the problem has its roots in in the fact the P.E. teachers have a completely separate syndicate, this syndicate is actually run out by the mafia and used to wash money.

The problem with P.E. is so big that kids all over the country could be their entire schooling without having a single day of P.E. and the fuckers will still get payed.

Most of the P.E. teachers are such slobs their weight makes look the average yankee like a fucking greek god I shit you not.

Here P.E. is that fucked up, you better take payed lessons at the gym than take P.E. because it doesn't matter how good you are, what matters is what the fuckers want.

Don't have a translation of that, but here's an article about the La Sierra system (seen in the American video above): theleanberets.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/la-sierra-article.pdf

That's some dumb shit

Also noticed that every kid in the article was white and wondered how different the school is nowadays

>The student body makeup is 50 percent male and 50 percent female, and the total minority enrollment is 87 percent.

Fucking hell, I can't imagine what it would be like to be a white in California and experience that change

All the examples are clearly propaganda videos. If you look at people's physiques from those times, you will find that most people were more skinny-fat than anything else. They ate less, and probably didn't have well-rounded nutrition.

>All the examples are clearly propaganda videos.

>a British film of a German sports meeting
>an American film demonstrating the PE system in La Sierra high school

>propaganda videos

In my country if you get into PE teaching you're made. They do fuck all to be honest. I remember they would just hand us a ball and say "play". Fucker would sit watch netflix on his phone. P.E is such a meme.

Women

Still waiting for the guy who said he had the Wehrmacht sports regulations for me to translate.

Anyway, from page 22 of your book:
>Requirements for the performance test of the Hitlerjugend
>1. Calisthenics
Note: I'll just translate the requirements for age 17 and up
>100 meter run - 14 seconds
>3000 meter run - 14 minutes
>Wide jump (I guess with running, not a standing wide jump) - 4.25 meter
>Club throw (500 gram club, on a track 10 meters wide) - 35 meters
>shot put, 5 kg - 7,5 meters
>pull ups - 4 reps
>Swimming (obligatory for levels B (16 years old) and C (17 years+), if a place for swimming is available after a hour march or less):
>300 meters - any time allowed
>or endurace swimming - 15 minutes
>or (where swimming isn't possible) bicycling - 50 minutes

+ much other stuff like reading maps, shooting, marching, training for better peception, etc. A LOT of things, actually. I presume they didn't want to do the same exercises every day.

On page 26, they say the bicycling must be 20 kilometers in 50 minutes for a performance medal.

So, not exactly horribly inhumane standards, though the book says this is the bare minimum to get the children tough and fit for military service.

Other disciplines named for the HJ are boxing, "fight wrestling" (Kampfringen is the medieval martial art of Germany and similar to Japanese Jiu Jutsu if you look at the medieval sources), as well as shooting, Parkour-like running through the wilderness, etc.

Basically, it's very similar to what the old Greeks and Romans tried to do.

(cont.)

Women and fags

Because when you weights 120 kg you can't do shit, Carlos.

It seems reasonable, I'm basing it on how more or less our army trains frontline-fit soldiers.

Its pretty reasonable, even myself as someone who hates running (sprinting short distances is alright) can complete most of these.

interessant

On page 29, they start with the "games", the most important thing for them, apparently. At least 25% of the physical education should be done by playing games.

>The most valuable games are the fighting games; they are preferred by the HJ, especially the fighting games with the medicine ball, which are simple and easy to learn, and in which the size and weight of the ball allow for a special strengthening of the body. Aside from them, the HJ also plays football and handball.

Football=Soccer

A lot of traditional games from Germany follow. The Partner games ("half gymnastics, half game") come first, no reps or sets given. They include: Wrestling while standing (also called "half-wrestling", basically wrestling without completed throws). Just look at the pics.

Second are "Games without apparatus (Bustle-, teasing and scuffle games)". They include the usual "sit on your partner's shoulders and fight the other guy doing the same" you see in manga a lot. Also "Rooster fight", ij which you hop on one leg, cross the arms over your chest and try to push and bump your opponent so he has to return to two legs (I did that as a kid, it's fun) and a lot of weird stuff I dunno (ie. all guys have to do move around in an "up position in push ups" while some poor sod is supposed to crawl over them on hands and knees without falling).

A lot of pics again.

(cont.)

Because the work force is being divided into two growing extremes, where the bottom requires vritually no education and the higher demands constantly higher education, while the middle class is rapidly shrinking.

Its shit because they hire shitty pe "coaches". I had 2 fat ass coach in middle school and high school, 1 asian midget coach in highschool that's good at badminton, and a black lady who is extremely fit which I like as a coach. A coach should push you to the limit every day to train you better and trains along side you. The black woman knew how to train our asses. Ran the fuck out of the track and lifted my ass off when she trained us. Asian coach was a pedophile (watched the girls play badminton, "trained" them, and took them in his car to "tournaments". The fat ones were white.

As I went to an all boys public school, we had the following throughout:

>Rugby
>Cricket
>Football, but not as popular as the two above
>Tennis, squash, badminton (your choice)
>Running, either sprinting or distance
>Boxing
>Swimming and diving

That was weekly, with at least one sport once a day. On top of that we had:

>At least one ski holiday a year
>One mountaineering/hiking/outdoors holiday a year
>Cadets (play with rifles and dress up in ancient gear)
>Seasonal rowing, sailing and cycling

Some of it was changed with age. Boxing was only when you were in double figures. Cadets was 13+, IIRC. I played rugby and was an avid skier.

It was made fun, interesting and challenging. Everyone had a sport and at least one activity. There's no reason schools across the country couldn't do the same, aside from the bits with guns and the Austrian alps.

>aside from the bits with guns

Whaddya hate freedom?

I don't, but there's no way they're going to get CCFs set up in state schools as the socialists who work there would have a fit and the children would shoot each other.

The comprehensive down the road from where I live often sends out said socialists to the paper to bleat on about how hard done by they are. They spaffed a load of money on iPads, a computer system that doesn't work and a gigantic new facade for the entrance building.

>3: Teasing and entertainment games with the small medicine ball
Note: The weight of the ball is never specified, so it was probably something standartized.

>The entertainment games with the medicine ball improve the agility, the skill of throwing and catching etc. They make the P.E. "hour" interesting and varied and evoke joy and a sense of adventure in the HJ.

Note: "hour" in this case isn't a literal hour. It's just a German expression for "the time in which I exercise". Well, it probably was a literal hour originally (somewhere under Jahn in the 1800s). It's more like 40-45 minutes nowadays, no idea how long it was in the 3rd Reich.

Some examples:
>Ball over the string
Which is basically volleyball, only with a string instead of a net. Usual time is 2 rounds of 5 minutes (change the fields after one round), or 2x10 minutes, which is the usual format for competitions. You can also play until one side has 10 or 20 points.

>Teasing ball
HJ makes a circle with one or two boys in the center. The circle tries to throw the ball to another guy in the circle, while the guy(s) in the center try to catch or touch the ball - if they succeed, they may change places with the guy in the circle who was supposed to catch the throw.

Some other games follow, then "Echelons". Which as you can see from the pic, is mostly making a line and moving the ball from one person to the next.

Then come the fighting games:
>Fighting Ball
Which sounds like a mix of handball and American Football, basically, you play handball, but may hinder the other team as you want. "Unfair" actions like punching, kicking and generally wanting to injure the other team are of course not allowed. Wrestling for the ball, however, is allowed and encouraged.

Some rules follow. The time is 2 rounds of 15 minutes, with changing the side after one round.

(Am I the only one this sounds fucking fun to?)

cont.

thanks for doing this

it does sound like a blast

Cheers lads.

>Dodge Ball
Well, we all know dodge ball, right? You can play it with a medicine or normal ("hollow") ball.

>Frontier Ball
Which is like fighting ball, only you may not run with the ball, so you have to learn to think quickly and throw the ball to another guy on your team. The field seems rather big (40x80 to 50x100 meters) for 6-10 players. If you have more players, prepare a bigger playfield. Fighting is not allowed here, you have to move the ball without it being touched by the other team. So it's an exercise for quickness and guile.

Then soccer and handball.

Next part: Gymnastic with and without and on an apparatus.

>The Gymnastic with, without and on an apparatus aims for the looseing of the joints, the stretching and strengthening of the muscles and depending on the time, also the strengthening of the inner organs. The thusly reached development of the whole body is the base for any further physical development. All exercises have been chosen for functionality, simplicity and how easy they are to learn, so that every Hitlerjunge can do them after a short while, even if he is completely untrained.

>Exercises without apparatus mainly aim for the loosening and stretching, partly the strengthening
>with apparatus mainly aim for the strengthening, partly the stretching
>on the apparatus mainly aim the streching and strengthening

>1. Exercises without apparatus
>A small but correctly chosen array of exercises is enough for a good gymnastic base. The exercises lose their worth through a bad execution. In every P.E. "hour" the gymnastic without apparatus shall be short, but drastic (for two hours of exercising, 10 minutes for gymnastic without apparatus). No Hitlerjhunge may be exhausted by overlong exercising. Weaker Hitlerjungen are to have an individual training program by the instructor and trainer.

cont.

Because schools are geared towards girls and girls don't need that much physical exercise.
Likewise, by denying the boys their physical exercise they're less eager to learn and will do worse in schools.

Physical education should comprise 1/3 of elementary and high school curriculum. Whole education system is outdated.

Your country's independence is outdated.

jews want you to stay fat and buy their sugary shit.

that's comfy

What do you mean? It's not independent by any stretch of imagination.

Did anyone else get angry reading this and comparing it to how useless, boring and ineffective your PE was by comparison?

Teachers would even break up the games of British Bulldog (try to run between two lines while everyone tries to tackle you to the ground) if they saw us playing it, let alone organising games like that for us to play

Nah sorry man, I confused your country's history with another's.

Sounds insanely boring. I would've preferred more climbing exercises.

>fighting off ten kids trying to tackle you to the ground is insanely boring

>Slow and fast execution of the exercises
>The exercises without apparatus may be divided in two groups, depending on whether they may be done fast or slow. In exercises which can be done slowly, the stretching and strengthening of the muscles is caused most efficiently. On the other hand, exercises which can be done fast have the benefit of strengthening the inner organs efficiently. A correct execution in these fast exercises is, however, not easy, and it is recommended, if there is enough time, to do the exercises slowly at first, before doing the exercises fast. If all Hitlerjungen can do the exercises properly, let them do both forms of exercises side by side.

>In the fast gymnastic, the arm- leg- and trunk exercises and the exercises while standing, sitting and lying are changed quickly. Exercises are changed qwuickly into another and commands are only given shortly and smartly. Depending on the character of the exercise and the total duration of the gymnastic, the exercises are to be repeated 4-6 times. The duration is to be 2-3 minutes in the beginning, especially since untrained Hitlerjungen are exhausted easily. With advanced training, the duration may be expanded by adding repetitions or other fitting exercises, but should probably not exceed 6-8 minutes, since the correct execution becomes difficult for a trained Hitlerjunge because of exhaustion.

>If the speed between the exercises diminishes, the trainer shall abort the exercises to avoid an exhaustion or a wrong execution of the exercise.

What follows is a short description of gymnastic stances - the pics will show you.

Then, to the exercises:
>a) loosenign exercises
>Shoulder rolls
>Arm circles with one arm up, one arm down
>Arm circles
>Arm swings backwards and forwards
>Relaxed trunk circling
>Relaxed leg circling

You should know theses exercises if you ever did any sport. The pics will help you.

cont.

Yes.
One time the teacher couldn't be arsed to deal with cheaters in PE so I told her to fuck off, she told me to go fuck my mom. Best punch to the eye I've ever given.

Also, get rid of female PE coaches. They daren't confront and can't keep the class in control.

I meant the "dodgeball, soccer and gymnastics" regiment. But tackling people isn't P.E. either, there's no physical improvement involved.

>they separate gym classes by gender in high school though

What the fuck. That's actually a good idea. Sadly they don't do it here.

Speak for yourself.

Nah, if you look at America today. You will find massive amounts of MORBID OBESITY that were simply not possible back then.

I agree that these are propaganda pieces. But America was at the forfront of kicking the /fit/ back into the collective conciousness. America fuck yeah.

Fitness is equated with "fascism" (unless it is dindus then it is associated with "rebellion") as it requires discipline. When they see people they have designated as the enemy with discipline they get angry, when they see people they have designated as allies with discipline they give praise.

It is as simple as that. They want you to be weak. It represents a corruptable individual and seeing this displayed in society puts them at ease. You know. You are easy going. Not a threat.

>Stretching exercises
This is ballistic stretching, btw. Several exercises are shown, some progressions are also given. Start with the easiest, go for the hardest.
>1. Trunk bending forward
Bend forward and bounce in the lowest position. Goal is fingers to the ground, the hands to the ground. Later, you can try like shown on the picture, hands to neck, goal is to touch your head to your knees (!).

The same applies to the other exercises. The pics are self-explaining, desu. Just remember to make the eexercise easier if it exhausts you. Apparently, the Nazis weren't big on "No pain, no gain".

>c) stretching and strengthening exercises
here, the pics are also well-done. but also show the more difficult variations. For example: Exercise one is just what the pic shows, with a "hollow back", but the starting exercise is to do the exercise with arms stretched over your head.

Next is the "windmill" exercise, you may actually know.

Next seem pretty hard and indeed:
>The exercise is not easy to do and only for advanced students
>Knees opened 1 hand-width, calves parallel, toes pointed, arms hang loosely or grab the back of the thighs. Backbend of the trunk with a hollow back. Bounce in the deepest position, then raise with a hollow back and hips pushed forward; fall over to the front and roll over relaxedly on the trunk.

Next exercise is straight-legged situps. First with a partner, later on without a partner holding your feet. First, cross arms over chest, later hold them at your neck, even later stretch them over your head.

Next is windshield wipers.

Next is super weird and old-school. basically, it's an explosive back bend:
>Shoveling movement
>Lay on your stomach. "Back hold" (ie. hold hands behind your lower back). Raise the upper body explosively, then the stretched out, closed legs (ie, legs touching each other). repeat with a hollow back, by which a "shoveling motion" is created.

Next is the bow from yoga (also only for advanced students).
cont.

Not to mention that fitness increases testosterone and increased testosterone leads to wrongthink political views. It's why antifa all look like this, and the punch a nazi thing is so hilarious

do kids in europe only have to run a kilometer for their physical fitness test?

americans have to run a mile

Then comes star jumps and all kinds of jumops shown in the pics. A lot of stuff, so I won't translate everything. The pics are self-explaining desu.

>d) Strengthening exercises
Ever wondered who invented the glute-ham raise? Well, now you know.

First exercise is a static glute ham raise with arms stretched overhead.
Next is diver bomber pushups on the knees.
Then, the boat from Yoga in an easier form.
Next is situps again, with a hollow back this time (only for advanced again), so that your head touches the ground first.
Then leg circles and flutter kicks.
Then "running" in a shoulder stand position - increase the speed only slowly.
Then wrestler's bridge - use your hands beside your head in the beginning (also only for advanced kids).
Then calf raises with an added jump later. Even later, raise your knees to your chest while jumping.
Then leg swings while hopping on one leg.
Then Jumping Jacks (progression: After jumping into the normal position, do a deep squat with arms stretched out before you).
Running fast on the spot.
Next is slow hindu squats: While lowering, bounce 6-8 times. While raising, also bounce 6-8 times.
Mountain climbers with one or two legs.
Push Ups. Do them "slowly and with completely stretched body". Progression: Fingertip push ups with legs far apart.
Handstand push ups.

cont.

>strength
>speed
>dexterity

as for the German plan, there is a huge variety of exercises listed, not sure where you got "dodgeball, soccer and gymnastics" from

Okay last one from me.

>Exercises with apparatus
>Mainly strengthening, also stretching
>In every exercise, it is to be made sure that the whole body is doing the movement. The repetitions depend on the capability of the Hitlerjungen. While exercising, there must always be the good feeling of "tone". The Hitlerjunge may never feel exhaustion (headache, nausea, etc). if there is no medicine ball available, it may be replaced with a fitting ball of cloth, the sphere may be replaced with rocks.

>The exercises with apparatus include exercises with the medicine ball, the sphere and the tree log. Other valuable exercises with kettlebells, dumbell, hammer and throwing weights will be ignored because of their price and their difficulty of application in halls and gymnastic grounds.

>Medicine ball exercises
The text mainly just explains the pics.
1. Catching the ball
2. Throwing the medicine ball overhead and back
3. Catching and throwing the medicine ball overhead
4. Same, but bent over
5. Shot putting the medicine ball left and right
6. Anyhow throw the medicine ball
7. Throwing the medicine ball with a situp (you can youtube that, bros)
8. Throwing two or three medicine balls. Basically, throwing a ball with either hand.

Next are exercises with the sphere, no weight is given here either. Maybe it's the 5 kg shot put? Again, watch the pics.

Tree log exercises:
>Only for older, stronger HJs
>length of the log is 4 meters, weight is 25-30 pounds
1. Take up the log and walk around with it.
2. Take a short log (2 meters long; 15-20 lbs); squat with it, then explose upwards, throw it overhead, then catch it again. You can also do this with the bigger log and by doing a split step like in Oly lifting.
3. Shot putting the short log (?). You hold it in position with the other hand, not sure I understand this right.
4. The Highland Games-like caber toss.

I think that's enough for me now lol. Enjoy.

Btw, later on there is a part on gymnastics. people were expected to do front flips and somersaults back then. Wow.

thanks

iktf at my Highschool they did this:

>Make the boys run on the longest track and outside lines

>Make the girls run the shorter track and inside lines

>can't play dodgeball because the girls have pain sensors on their boobs and they're too fucking dumb to dodge

>boys forced to play soccer or other rough shit and the girls get sent to play voleyball and by that I mean just passing the ball while talking

>boys get physical punishment if we lose in a mixed game, punishment is 15 pushups or running 20 laps

>girls can just bullshit their way through with "muh period"

its not the best and many of the boys in my class were manlets (5"5 average) with thin as fuck limbs. I was a fatass weighing in at 200 and measuring 6"1

less activity and more carbs = fat fucks
