Ever put on a brand-new pair of sneakers and instantly feel faster, sharper, more confident? Same body. Same stride. Better grip. In this episode of Move With Purpose, Chris Meyer breaks down why many PE programs don't need a total overhaul, they need new tread. From classroom management to lesson flow to curriculum design, you'll learn how worn systems quietly lose traction and how small, intentional updates can restore energy, engagement, and clarity. This is about refreshing what already works, not reinventing yourself. Same gym. Same whistle. Better grip. Lace up and level up.

The shift in physical education is already here, and this episode is your wake-up call. In this episode of Move With Purpose, Chris challenges educators to stop tweaking and start truly reimagining their PE programs. Through research-backed frameworks and real classroom examples, this episode explores relevance, student voice and choice, modern teaching models, intentional use of technology, and assessment that values growth over scores.

If students can't explain why learning matters, it's not a student problem, t's a curriculum problem. This conversation will help you audit what's outdated, rebuild with purpose, and design a program that prepares students for a lifetime of movement, not just a semester.

If you're ready to move beyond "how it's always been" and lead the future of physical education, press play. Then take one bold step this week to reinvent your program, your students are waiting.

In this episode of Move With Purpose, Chris Meyer challenges the "busy, happy, sweaty" mindset and makes the case for designing physical education with intention. Using the backward design framework, she walks listeners through how to plan PE lessons, units, and full semesters by starting with the end in mind—clear outcomes, meaningful assessments, and purposeful learning experiences. From a step-by-step breakdown to a real-world basketball unit example (and a teaser of the Sport Education model), this episode is packed with practical strategies to help teachers move from activity-driven classes to learning-driven programs that truly impact students.
