What is sports burnout? 🤔

It's when kids no longer find joy or accomplishment in playing due to overtraining. They may feel pressured to specialize and win, believing it's their only path to success.

Parents, promote a positive sports attitude focusing on fun, teamwork, and exercise for a balanced lifestyle. Learn more: https://www.healthychildren.org/English/health-issues/injuries-emergencies/sports-injuries/Pages/Too-Much-Too-Soon-Overtraining.aspx

August classes are gonna be exciting as our coaches focus on Muscular Power. 💪💯

Looking for an exercise to boost your kid’s muscular power? Try this:
Choose a short distance and have your kid do frog jumps from one end to the other without stopping. Allow a minute or two for rest and repeat with a longer distance. Let them count how many jumps it takes them to get from one end to the other. The objective is to get from one side to the other in the least amount of jumps possible. 🐸

Remember: Muscular power is derived from both strength and speed so make sure you incorporate both when working with your kid.

Lead researcher, Francisco Ortega, shares important advice to parents and caregivers in this article from Lesmills: “If your children do not perform well academically, do not punish them … or withdraw them from an after-school sports activity … do just the opposite."

Terri says hi! 👋

When Terri began Kidokinetics in 1995, many people asked about starting a Kidokinetics in their community. Terri set out to build a franchise system that would allow others to share in her vision and bring sports knowledge and fitness skills to kids of all ages and abilities.

Her programs keep kids moving and active and are especially in demand as schools eliminate recess and cut their P.E. programs, meaning kids have more screen time at school and at home.

The magic of Kidokinetics is that we’ve made sure achieving goals is an exciting experience — one that is so much fun, kids aren’t even aware of the fact that they’re learning. 😁🥰

It’s World Emoji Day! 🌍

Muscular Strength is in the spotlight for our July classes. 💪💯

Did you know? For building healthy muscles, joints, ligaments, and bones, it is time to think about muscular strength training.
