Abstract
The goal of physical education (PE) is to assist students in the development of physical activity habits that will last a lifetime. To achieve this, PE teachers must shift beyond only teaching sports and games during instructional periods. Strength and conditioning programming is one alternative available to PE teachers. This article provides an overview of the benefits of strength and conditioning for youth and an example of one high school implementing strength and conditioning as part of its PE program while following the guidelines laid out in the two position statements on youth resistance training.
