How to Get Out of Gym Class Permanently

Want to make sure you never have to participate in PE or Gym class ever again? These are the best excuses ever! Getting out of Physical Education has never been so easy!

Do you know how to get out of gym class permanently?

I know a lot of short term methods. Permanent takes more work, though many short term excuses work just as well.

What would you try?

If you get a piece of fake vomit and generate it after saying you feel ill, you'll get out of at least one gym class.

Gross. How often does that work?

Maybe once or twice. Tell the teacher you've forgotten your gym clothes.


My gym teacher would probably tell me to work out no matter what I'm wearing.

Girls could say that they can't run laps because their period started. You could use this excuse up to once a month.

That works until I'm told to put tampons in my locker so it doesn't happen again.

Join marching band. You don't have to do gym, because the marching counts as your P.E. credit.

I'd rather not have to work out at all.

Don't try to get out of gym class permanently; you could end up a fat couch potato.

What could get me out of running laps?

Get diagnosed with asthma. That could get you out of hard, strenuous exercise.

I'd still have to do those stretches and wear the funky outfits.

I thought your goal was getting out of running laps.

That's one of the goals.

You could start getting really annoying in gym class. Do a touchdown dance every few minutes or jump up and down screaming with excitement.

They'd ask me to leave!

I thought that's what you wanted! And it's better than pooping in your pants to prove you feel sick.

I could try reverse psychology.

Asking the man to let you work out hard will cause you to get sent for extra laps. Try faking heat exhaustion instead.

I'd rather fake being sick.

Just find a way to keep up some exercise, because you can't fake being thin.
