Does it look bad to take weight training class?

Hi
I was wondering how colleges view weight training class on a high school transcript? Especially if the kid has all honors and AP otherwise. Could they explain their love of ahletica even if they aren’t good enough to play in college? Or, does it just look like you are taking a blow off class?
Thanks

I took weight training two semesters to fill my PE requirement, and I really loved it. It was a great way to de-stress and make sure I had some time for staying healthy and sane.
My thought is that many states have PE requirements and an all honors/AP schedule would not be looked down upon for including such a class.

Thanks!
already fulfilled the PE requirement so this would be an elective. I do see some value in it. Just don’t know if colleges will…

Many high schools require one or more semesters of physical education, so weight training isn’t a deal breaker. Mind AND body.
