PITTSBURGH  – P3R recently launched a free fitness platform for kids and their families called Workouts of STEEL. Designed for children of all ages, Workouts of STEEL includes instructional workout videos, fitness games, running workouts and more that can be used as a resource for parents and coaches as part of P3R’s award-winning Kids of STEEL program. 

“Workouts of STEEL makes it fun and easy to add kid-focused fitness into your daily routine,” said Leslie Turis, P3R Director of Youth Programming. “Families can use this resource to stay motivated and keep moving at home. Kids of STEEL coaches also will be able to find inspiration and ideas as they plan activities for their sites during training season. We hope this free platform encourages more kids to get moving and become Kids of STEEL.”

Parents and coaches can easily find content appropriate for their children on Workouts of STEEL by searching for age group, type of workout and difficulty. New content will be added each month and shared on the Kids of STEEL social channels and newsletter.  

Families who want to get involved with the Kids of STEEL program this summer or fall can sign up for official Kids of STEEL virtual races including the Fleet Feet Liberty Mile (July 20 - August 7), Dollar Bank Junior Great Race (month of September) and Kids Virtual 10 at the EQT Pittsburgh 10 Miler.
