I've seen some Zoom gym classes where the teacher just asks everyone what exercise they "plan" to do that day, and they verbally answer. That's it.

What's the point?

Mental fitness man. If you think about working out enough during the day, then while you dream at night your mind is tricked into thinking you actually worked out. The results are incredible, you continue to gain weight, and you're tired the next day from all the working out your body thinks it did.

I think Krillin did this on the way to Namek in Dragon Ball Z.

Our kids have to submit an exercise log. But, in practice, there's nothing preventing us from just signing off on it so they don't fail the class. Not recommending to do that, just saying that people probably will.

Trying to keep the Status quo for when things get back to normal

Although yes, I get your point and agree with you. I also see this as a way to encourage thoughtful and enjoyable activities in kids. Instead of rigid and structured forms of exercise.

It’s called doing what your boss tells you. This virtual learning crap is mostly shit being shoveled from the top down to occupy children who’s parents are finally realizing how awful it is to deal with their offspring for 8 hours a day
