Students who are majoring in Exercise Science and Physical Education K-12 are leading this year鈥檚 challenge, which is running through April 23. Since this year鈥檚 event is taking place virtually through and , anyone can work out alongside 91精选 students, earn points for prizes, and get healthier.

Each week features a different theme, such as body weight, abs/core, cardio, flexibility, yoga, and Pilates.

According to Physical Education, Recreation and Kinesiology Department Chair and Associate Professor of Physical Education Shari Jurgens 鈥�92, an exercise science major and a PE K-12 major team up each week to create three 10-minute workout videos. 鈥淭hey are doing a great job of making these workout videos fun, engaging, and doable for all fitness levels,鈥� said Jurgens.

One recent week of videos featured Matt Kamp ’21 and Manaase Mbuyi ’22, 鈥淜eep going, keep doing your thing, just keep pushing yourself,鈥� Mbuyi urged viewers. 鈥淛ust be better every day, be respectful to one another, and just make a difference in your life and the lives of others.鈥�

Along with getting healthier, participants have the chance to earn points and compete for prizes. Points can be earned by sending in selfies to the Healthy Troll e-mail address. Selfies can include images of participants working out on their own, a screen shot of 10,000 steps for the day, a screen shot of a food log for the day, or a screen shot of participating following along with a Healthy Troll challenge workout on social media.

It鈥檚 never too late to start!
