[quote=Anonymous]My child does not have low tone but his best friend in middle school does. The mom shared that getting him to do anything physical was a challenge. He did swim for fun and would also go to a trampoline park (on less busy days). Over the past year my son convinced him to start riding his bike so that they could go explore the neighborhood. They have worked up to being able to ride 10 miles on a Saturday. His parents are shocked at the difference it has made in their son's feelings about pe class. He no longer complains and can keep up with the other kids. I will say with my own kids I have always had them run track for the exercise. They don't love it but will be the first to tell others that they run track because it helps them with their favorite sport (LAX, football, softball) so maybe you can find another activity that will help your son stay active (swimming, martial arts, gymnastics) and frame it as training for baseball.[/quote]
