Just when you thought he couldn't get any cooler, Marcus Rashford has decided to put together an online PE lesson.

He's filmed it for 麻豆社 Bitesize and it will be available to watch from 9:25am on Wednesday 10 June. It's aimed at kids during lockdown.

But, it turns out he doesn't know much about being a PE teacher because he asked his followers on social media for help.

He tweeted: "I have some homework and I need help from any PE teachers following me. C麻豆社 have asked me to pull together a PE session. I obviously know how to warm up but what else do I need? Is it all about cardio?"

"Help please. I want to get this right", he added at the end of the post.

He even reached out to his Manchester United's assistant manager, Mike Phelan, for inspiration, "You must have some advice," he asked.

Loads of people replied to Marcus offering their tips, including PE teachers from all over the UK.

Suggestions included moving between exercises every 30 to 45 seconds, including football skills and making sure everyone is hydrated with water breaks throughout.

Marcus updated his fans with a rough guide to his class later in the day.

He tweeted, "Ok so far we have: Get the heart rate going, focus on balance, try not to use equipment and just make it fun.

"Am I missing anything?"

He's not the only footballer getting involved to help out with home schooling during lockdown.

Manchester City striker, Sergio Aguero, has teamed up with 麻豆社 Bitesize to help kids learn Spanish.
