The President's Challenge
The President’s Challenge was a program introduced by the President’s Council on Physical Fitness. Even though this program has now been privatized, we still encourage our students to meet the standards once issued under this program. Students work to perform sit-ups, pull-ups or push-ups, flexibility tests, and aerobic capacity tests to standards of fitness determined by the Council.
