Active Maths Challenge

There is maths involved in any form of exercise training to maintain your physical health. In January, many people have the New Year's resolution to get more active and fit, and will need maths to keep track of their progress.

Start the year with our mini Active Maths challenge and measure what progress you can make:

• How long can you balance for?
• How high can you jump?
• How many star jumps can you do?

Try each exercise three times a week, and record your progress over a period of four weeks. What improvements can you see? Note how you feel at the beginning of the four weeks versus the end. A great keep fit challenge you can do individually or as a group, either in class or at home.

You can download out free Active Maths tracking sheets, or just use a notebook to keep track if you want to avoid printing.
