Chuck Corbin's Fitness for Life DVDs allow teachers to vary their instruction technique and illustrate the key concepts, activities, and assessments featured in the Fitness for Life text. These engaging videos provide virtually self-contained lesson plans that will motivate as well as instruct. Your students will learn to practice goal setting; think critically about health-related fitness; and become responsible for their own activity, fitness, and health.

The Wellness package includes five 30-minute video segments:

-Introduction to Wellness

-Nutrition

-Stress Management

-The Activity Pyramid

-Planning Healthy Lifestyles

The videos spell out exactly why each aspect of wellness is important, illustrate key points from the corresponding content within the Fitness for Life text, and identify activities and assessments that reinforce student learning.

The other DVD in the series, Lifelong Physical Fitness, covers fitness topics related to the corresponding content in the Fitness for Life textbook.

This book was published 2005 by Human Kinetics Publishers .

Two of Dr. Corbin's video programs have earned Telly Awards for Excellence for educational videos. He was first author of the national physical activity standards for children, published by the Council on Physical Education for Children (COPEC) and the National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE).
