gym class
Mandatory school exercise
Gym class is physical education in school—the period when students exercise, play sports, or learn fitness skills instead of sitting at desks.
The term evokes childhood memories of dodgeball, rope climbing, and changing in locker rooms: I always dreaded gym class.
Also called PE or phys ed.
