My Personal Statement For My Fitness

You always here goals about people wanting to lose weight. More often than not people are going to the gym to try and lose weight. There’s also those few people who want to put on weight. I happen to be one of those people. My goal is to gain 10 pounds of muscle by the time I start my next semester which would be August 22nd, putting me at 180lbs. This has been a goal of mine for a while, but I haven’t put it into action until now.

Pursing a career as a medical doctor is an opportunity for me to mentor youth in underserved populations. As a child, I was raised in the low income, urban community of Roxbury, MA. Although not as notorious today, the neighborhood had garnered negative attention for its high crime rates. My mother emigrated from Haiti and raised me as a single parent. Due to our financial circumstance, Roxbury became our permanent residence. I have always felt there was something lacking in Roxbury in comparison to other towns I visited. My teenage years were largely spent in the suburban town of Stoneham where I attended high school. There was a literal difference in air quality and a psychology contrast in future prospects. While native students of

I have wanted to be/ do something in the sports medicine field since I was in the seventh grade. So any chance I get I look up any information that will come up and read everything possible to give more me information about becoming an athletic trainer. This is something that has been very important to me for several years and I’m never letting go of this no matter what it takes to get there. I enjoy sports a lot and like learning how to help people get to learn more about the proper use of equipment, and I like teaching people too. That is one requirement that it takes to be an athletic trainer. I am interested in the occupation because it fits perfect in what I am looking for in a career. I feel like with me being involved in the sports the way that I am now it would be perfect and I have plans to still wanting to be as athletic when I am older too. Being an athletic trainer takes being fit/ in shape for sure!

I have chosen to study athletic training because it allows me to still participate and be involved in sports as well as be able to help athletes recover from injuries while gaining valuable clinical experience for physical therapy. Growing up I have always had a love for sports but I have not been graced with the abilities to become a professional athlete. With my love for sports as a youth I watched a lot on television with my father and I would see athletes get injured and medical personnel rush out to their aid. When I found out they were athletic trainers and physical therapists, I knew that is what I wanted to do when I grew up. All throughout high school I was involved in sports and unfortunately had an injury or two. Although our school did not have an athletic trainer, I went to many different specialists and

The profession that I am interested in is an Athletic Trainer. I have chosen this career because it is something that I have recently become passionate about within the last two years. I have never been the kind of person to struggle with weight, however after having my 3rd and last child, weight has become an issue. I mention my personal struggle to give insight on why I have chosen an Athletic Trainer. This profession’s main goal is physical fitness. As a trainer you become responsible for another person’s physical active lifestyle. Assisting clients from injury to recovery, evaluating their bodies and advising the individual what is best. Athletic Trainers has many responsibilities. AT’s are professionals in the health care world who mainly caters to athletes. An AT however isn’t limited to just athletes. They work with just about anyone. Ages ranging from a child to an adult. Different skill and jobs, people such as soldiers, high school athletes, and professional athletes.

There are few certainties of what one will encounter during life. A common joke names two: death and

While a sophomore in high school, I had the opportunity to take a sports medicine elective class. At first, I was not too sure about it, but I thought I would give it a try and I ended up loving every second of the class, especially the hands-on experience. After taking both levels of the course, I learned a great deal about taping, special tests, the different treatment modalities, all the joints of the body and common injuries for each, as well as the different career options under the sports medicine umbrella. Since I enjoyed the course, I signed up for my school’s Athletic Training club where I was a student trainer for the wrestling and soccer teams. I worked alongside the school’s head athletic trainer to help tape, stretch, and provide first aid for the athletes both on and off the field. We also worked to provide and implement rehabilitation plans to help the athletes return to play after an injury. From this experience, I learned that I enjoy working with athletes and I wanted to pursue Athletic Training in college. After researching the different colleges in Georgia that offered

Personal health and wellness are important factors towards life because without health, our quality of life would suffer greatly. There are many factors that contribute to health and wellness; some can be managed, but many are out of our control. Below are four main topic that caught my attention throughout the course.

Over the last 30-40 years, the amount and intensity of exercise has gradually declined. Few children in the United States have actually met the recommended “sixty minutes of vigorous exercise” per day (Institute of Medicine, 2013). Although most states and districts have policies pertaining to physical education, these programs lack reinforcement and are often considered weak. Physical education has slowly declined throughout the years, and the the purpose of encouraging students to make physical activity part of their daily lifestyle has been lost. Recent research from Cornell University has found that the average high school gym class consists of students being active for an average of only sixteen minutes! This is nowhere near the recommended sixty minutes of physical exercise. Physical education has been pushed to the side while academics have been prioritised. P.E. classes have become overlooked by society as a whole. Students simply see it as a courses used only for socializing, or to avoid academic courses such as Algebra, Biology, and History. While teachers no longer encourage students to be active, this should not be the path in which we take physical education. The importance of exercise and physical activity goes beyond the classroom with is proven benefits in memory, cognition and attention which are skills that can be used for daily life activities. In recent times, many programs are popping up across the country to emphasize the importance of being active!

Through my experience with sports, particularly volleyball, I always knew I wanted to work with athletes, like myself. My ideal post-graduate job would be an athletic trainer. The dream is to work at the training booths at sports tournaments and camps helping athletes with minor injuries. My decision to become an athletic trainer has stemmed from my desire to remain in the sports world long after my college volleyball career is has completed. I have always been strong in Science and Mathematics, I am so glad that I was able to finally pick a major based on my athlete’s schedule, career goals, and academic strengths. Along with athletic training, I want to be a coach. Not only do I want to be a coach, but a phenomenal coach; someone that

The goal I chose is to live a healthy lifestyle which in terms will add years to my life. In this transformation I chose to eat healthier, exercise more, drink plenty water and add supplements to my personal wellness plan. I will devote a significant amount of time to each area of this wellness plan over the next eight weeks to get the ultimate results. Below are specific goals and a plan of action that I will be doing over the course of eight weeks; in an effort to make lifestyle changes.

I chose this career path because I am passionate about fitness and helping others. I know for this career you must have patience, athletic ability, and motivational skills. I have worked with kids, and when their faces light up because they did the activity correctly, it makes me smile a lot, and it’s rewarding. No one inspired me to do this career, I have always loved working out and athletics ever since I could remember; I also was pretty good at it too. When I was in elementary, intermediate, middle, and high school, P.E/athletics was my favorite class. When I workout, my mind clears, and it is also my get-a-way place plus I love the feeling of working out. So that led me to find a career that could be similar to what I love to do.
