Hello Wingate Wildcats! I hope you are all doing well, considering the circumstances. I wanted to share some information with you that I think will be helpful to keep you busy while at home. Please click on the Pages link on the left hand side of this screen to find several helpful resources. Also, there are some assignments listed under the Assignments tab.  I miss you all, and I hope that we will be back to normal soon!

Since I haven't gotten much participation during Fit Lab Fridays, due to other meetings or having trouble getting on, I have decided to just post a Workout of the Week video below each week. You will be able to access it whenever you are able to. I will do my best to change them each week. If you missed the previous Fit Lab Fridays there are videos below that you are still able to access and follow along. I am also adding in office hours through Zoom. If you would like to join me to chat or if you have questions I will be available every virtual day from 10:30-11:00 am. The link for zoom will be below the Workout of the Week Videos.
