A groundbreaking and fascinating investigation into the transformative effects of exercise on the brain, from Abraham Concepcion, an elementary physical education teacher. Did you know you can beat stress, lift your mood, fight memory loss, sharpen your intellect, and teach better than ever just by elevating your heart rate and breaking a sweat? The evidence is incontrovertible: Aerobic exercise physically remodels our brains for peak performance. Research shows that mindfulness has positive benefits for overall health and wellness. These benefits aren't just limited to hardcore athletes. Kids and teachers both have a lot to gain from the movement and breath that improves fitness levels. In 1,000 Pounds of Physical Education, Abraham embarked upon a traumatic and challenging journey as a kid having to struggle with a horrible teacher. Mindfulness eventually leads him through the mind-body connection to learning. He now presents startling research that proves exercise is truly our best defense against everything from depression to ADD to addiction to aggression to memory loss. Filled with amazing case studies, including research that validates the importance of engaging students in physical activity to support learning. 1,000 Pounds of Physical Education explores the connection between exercise, mind, and winning in the classroom year after year comprehensively. Become an effective teacher that provides vigorous cooperation games that promote socio-emotional learning, cooperation, teamwork, trust, problem-solving, oxygenates the brain, and allow memory retention early in life. It will change forever the way you think about your morning run, diet, and simply the way you think. A former personal trainer for over fifteen years earned his dream job as a teacher. Abraham strives to teach children a unique and inspiring philosophy that focuses on the integration of mindfulness, fitness, nutrition, and behavioral changes. Abraham earned a master's degree in elementary education at Hawaii Pacific University, a B.A in Physical Education from the University of Puerto Rico, and the top national personal training certifications. His ambition to help many lead him to serve in the U.S Army. Abraham empowers students to define and reach their own goals, both physical and emotional.

Physical inactivity is a key determinant of health across the lifespan. A lack of activity increases the risk of heart disease, colon and breast cancer, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, osteoporosis, anxiety and depression and others diseases. Emerging literature has suggested that in terms of mortality, the global population health burden of physical inactivity approaches that of cigarette smoking. The prevalence and substantial disease risk associated with physical inactivity has been described as a pandemic. The prevalence, health impact, and evidence of changeability all have resulted in calls for action to increase physical activity across the lifespan. In response to the need to find ways to make physical activity a health priority for youth, the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment was formed. Its purpose was to review the current status of physical activity and physical education in the school environment, including before, during, and after school, and examine the influences of physical activity and physical education on the short and long term physical, cognitive and brain, and psychosocial health and development of children and adolescents. Educating the Student Body makes recommendations about approaches for strengthening and improving programs and policies for physical activity and physical education in the school environment. This report lays out a set of guiding principles to guide its work on these tasks. These included: recognizing the benefits of instilling life-long physical activity habits in children; the value of using systems thinking in improving physical activity and physical education in the school environment; the recognition of current disparities in opportunities and the need to achieve equity in physical activity and physical education; the importance of considering all types of school environments; the need to take into consideration the diversity of students as recommendations are developed. This report will be of interest to local and national policymakers, school officials, teachers, and the education community, researchers, professional organizations, and parents interested in physical activity, physical education, and health for school-aged children and adolescents.
