HAAAAAAAAAAA!!! Good one.
I don't know what grade you teach, but I am afraid of high school kids. Really. If you teach high school kids then I admire you.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA again, Deckedout. You are a witty one.
Actually I admire you for teaching all grades. Adults are taught to nod politely and clap if you are speaking in front of them, regardless of whether or not you are a bad speaker. Kids however, are brutally honest.

City: Katy State: TX | Exercising in the correct heart rate zone?
Consider a heart rate monitor, e.g. Polar Fitness models F6 or F11. I didn't know squat about how heart rate during exercise affects the % of calories burned from fat vs carbohydrates, but I checked websites such as www.polarusa.com and www.howtobefit.com and learned a lot. I invested in an F11 Polar HeartRate Monitor (available on Amazon or even cheaper on eBay) and am now recording all my exercise sessions and uploading that date to a website ( www.polarpersonaltrainer.com). You will be amazed at what you'll learn. The old adage, "no pain no gain" is garbage; you need to get your heartrate into the correct range (or zone) to achieve the maximum weightloss or "burn". Most all the machines at my exercise facility (Lifetime Fitness, Houston) will display your current heartrate while you exercise; no more grabbing the bars and holding on for the display.

Funny about teaching!! I am also a teacher, but I do teach math in high school. What a coincidence!

City: Katy State: TX | Chose F11 over F6
I chose Polar because they had the F6 for sale at Lifetime Fitness and all Polar models provide constant heart rate readout on most all the equipment there. I did a lot of research on the web to confirm that Polar was the way to go, then decided to spend the extra money on the F11 because of the improved transmitter, chest strap and Keep-U-Fit option to create your own workout program. F6 was $99 at Lifetime; I bought F11 on eBay for $130 (retail $179). Now I'm looking at upgrading to the F55 model. It never seems to end. Good luck.
