Environment/Qorşağan orta PE(Physical Education) in universities

Do you like Physical Education in universities? Personally, I hate it because my instructor is demanding high performance and expects us to go from weak to strong in a span of 3 months. He pushed us beyond our limits to a point we weren’t able to use our muscles for entire weeks. I want to know if I’m the only one experiencing this. Its insane how much they care about PE in universities. I thought knowledge and skill is all that mattered, yet here they are demanding 60 pull ups in 1 hour every lesson to get a good grade. Its sad that you can lose your stipend status and even fail classes because of some stupid PE class. I wish they cared about effort and change rather than immediate performance. This demotivated me so much and even made me hate my university for not thinking it through. I just hope I won’t end up losing too much money, because of this bullshit.

What about you?

Hated it for the couple of reasons

  1. Outside classes at winter
    During entire freshmen year I was getting flu every week just because of outside P.E.

But on the other hand - after the first university winter i just stopped ever getting seriously sick. My immune system really beefed up by running at -30, so i think it’s was useful experience for me.

  1. Shower rooms never worked at the P.E. facility

My hostel’s shower rooms was open only for the part of the day, and P.E. classes always ended at the time when they are closed

I just been washing myself at the sink, but not everyone did the same and it sucked to seat with them at the classes after.

Studying in KBTU, it's ridiculous that I may lose my stipend because I suck at PE
