My favorite exercise is wall sits. The reason it is wall sits is because it’s the best workout for your legs and every time I exercise with my sisters, I always win against them when it comes to wall sits. Also where my sister was in football she has taught the correct position and everything for it so I can master it.

My favorite activity is tumbling. I’ve always done gymnastics, but I’ve always loved to go on the tumble track. Even after I stopped gymnastics my coach invited me to come back. I was so obsessed with it I wanted to be a judge. That’s why it’s one of my favorite sports.
Clay Sherfey, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite exercise or physical activity is fishing. I love to fish; it is my favorite activity. My family and I will go on fishing trips. Just the other day I got all my fish gear ready. So, let’s go fish, fish on.
Clayton Carr, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite physical activities are playing football and baseball. These are my favorite activities because I get to play with my family and friends. These games are my friends and family’s favorite. It is also my favorite. My friends, family, and I play these games all the time. Also, it is fun.
Dakota Carrier, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite physical activity is track. I like doing relay races. The main reason is because we run short and long distance and it takes teamwork. Another reason I like it is we have to hand the baton because it’s not as easy to hand it off to the other person like you might think.
Dalton Gorley, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite physical activity is swimming. My family and I usually always go up to the lake each summer. I love the weightlessness that it puts on my body. I have been trying to teach my brother how to swim when he can’t touch the bottom, but he won’t do it. But either way we always have fun when we go.
Darren Harless, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite exercise is playing trivia games with my cousins. It exercises the brain and memory. I think it’s fun because it is something that a lot of people can play at the same time so it is a good game for a family as big as mine. It also doesn’t hurt that I’m really good at trivia. I also like it because it can be played electronically or it can be played non-electronically.
Emily Childress, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite activities are basketball and track. I love to play basketball with my brother CJ at home because he likes to challenge me to games but where he’s so good at basketball, he always wins. Sometimes I can win, but where he will dribble between legs he will win. I love track because I have track with Khloe, Loran, Cheyenne, and Dalton. They are all my track buddies. I love to do the relay race because we have to sprint as fast as we can with a baton in our hands and pass it to someone else.
Emma Saxton, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite physical activity is more of a sport but not a big sport. My favorite physical activity is mini golf because it has always been enjoyable to play on the courses. The last hole was always challenging because you had to hit the ball up a ramp, in a spiral, and into the hole. I could never get that hole in one. All the courses at Putt-Putt are fun and that mini golf course made me love mini golf.
Gabriel Farley, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
Jogging is my favorite physical activity. Here’s why. It doesn’t tire you out much and it’s also fun to do. When you’re jogging you can get to see nature if you’re jogging outside. If you jog it can also help you lose weight and get fit. That is my conclusion on why jogging is my favorite physical activity.
Gage Southern, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite physical activity is baseball. It is my favorite. I have been playing it since I was two. I love every aspect of it. I have made a lot of good memories playing it. One main thing is that I love to toss with my dad, hit with my dad, and I love playing with my friends.
Gavin Roberts, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite physical activity is to play basketball. Not only is it fun but whenever I’ve had bad times, I practice basketball to get it off my mind. It has also helped me meet lots of new friends as competitors and teammates.
Grant Giles, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite activity is biking. Biking lets you ride freely, not in a stuffy car. When I bike, I love the feeling of the wing you can only get when you are going 30 miles heading down a hill. The sensation of happiness always follows me when I hit the trails. I love biking.
Jack Ragan, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite physical activity is basketball. Basketball is my go to thing when I’m sad. It helps me calm down every time I sink a 3-point. Plus basketball is my favorite thing to watch. That is my favorite physical activity.
Jacob Johnson, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite exercise is to run. Running is my favorite exercise because it works your leg and helps me control my stamina. It also helps your legs if you run up steep hills. I run for the cross country team at my school along with the track team, and we made it to state last season. After the race our coach got the coaches award for Best Coach of the Season. And out of all of those other schools, we placed second. That was the greatest season yet.
Jacob Turpin, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite exercise or physical activity is doing track. I like track because I get to run and talk with my friends. I also get to go to track meets and meet new people. We also do different exercises every day. It’s fun because every time we are at practice, we are racing each other and trying to get better.
James Cross, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
I know a lot of exercises but if I have to choose my favorite it would be running. I love this because I love to feel the wind in my fair and on my face. It also feels great for my legs and for my head. It feels good for my head because running is like a stress ball for me. I can change my speed and it relieves my anger, especially when I can vent with someone about a subject. But overall I love running so much because you can’t really be bad at it, meaning everyone can run, not matter how slow or fast.
John Wise, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite exercise or physical activity would have to be riding bikes. Bikes are one of the closest things a kid can get to their own vehicle. Bikes are always a thrill to ride whether you are racing or just riding around the neighborhood; you can always count on a fun time. So maybe next time you go outside, ask friends and family if they want to go ride around the neighborhood.
Kaden Ward, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite exercise it to run. I used to do cross country. During the summer I will go walking with my family or on a trail sometimes. I like to run but I don’t do it all the time. That is why I don’t want to do cross country again. I liked it but I don’t think it was my thing.
Kailee Gross, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite exercise is running. I like running because it helps my legs. I need to start running and working out a lot more than I am. For one I need to be able to life at least 50 pounds of weight and eat more meat. I don’t really have the time to work out or the time to run with all the homework we have.
Kase Newman, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite physical activity I participate in is running. In fourth and fifth grades I was part of a program called Girls on the Run. My best friend Anna and I have run four different 5K runs together. It was so much fun.
Katelyn Jones, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite exercise or physical activity is volleyball. I play on my school’s team and I wish the season was year-round. We do lots of drills and conditioning that are extremely challenging but still fun. I think volleyball is the best way to stay active and have fun.
Katelyn McGlothlin, 7th, Holston Valley Middle, Mrs. Taylor
My favorite exercise or physical activity is walking. I love to walk. I walk every day, all day. I walk to my friend’s house and to the store. My aunt walks with me sometimes. I walk all day at school and when I’m at home. I like walking because it helps me lose weight and builds my muscles.
