What did you need to be a good athlete in the 1950’s?

What new words have you learnt? create a ‘bunch of words’.

Paraphrase in 40 words what you have learnt and list any athletes names that you have heard of before that they mention.

Why do you think I chose this clip to watch?

    You need to have good physique great aptitude and a good technique.
    2: Physique,aptitude,technique.
    3: I don’t know any of the athletes, I’ve learnt with running u need to have a long lean body, and for weight lifting u need to be tall and powerfull, and for swimming a well developed body with good lung capacity.
