Thank you to Dr. Pollen from Jefferson University for spending time with our health classes this week! He talked about how different sports use different training techniques, and students had plenty of questions about exercises connected to their own athletic interests.
He also walked everyone through a few movements, showing how proper form can prevent injuries and improve performance. Students tried things out, got feedback, and shared some of their own training experiences.
Dr. Pollen wrapped up by encouraging everyone to stay active and find a sport or activity they genuinely enjoy. We appreciate his time and the great conversation! We are #AbingtonProud #ASHSProud #FirstinActivities
