This semester my primary goals were to eat healthier and to maintain my 6 mile run time. My two goals required a lot of dedication and the body works class has helped me stay focus on my goals throughout the entire semester. Having body work class on Mondays helps me get my week started with a good workout, secondly having this class in general works as a reminder that being healthy and active is an everyday challenge that truly pays off in the long run.
My first goal is sort of distant from the fitness aspect of the class, however eating well and exercising go hand-to-hand. I grew up eating extremely unhealthy, and since I came to college and was able to take control over my meals, I have been working on purchasing and eating healthier food
When students add exercise to their life, they will develop a routine. If they commit, they will have different eating habits and will have to fit exercise into their schedule. Students will develop a meal plan, and an exercise routine, that fits their lifestyle. This will help them have a schedule for their everyday lives. If all students participated in the exercise, their lives would become more organized.
When first joining the Physiology Club our faculty advisor, Dr. Wehrwein, and club coordinator, James Poteracki, were both teaching my physiology lab course. Over that semester I volunteered at several elementary science events with the Club and observed small adjustments that could improve student safety and learning. Both Dr. Wehrwein and James were open to discuss my ideas and observations, and soon we were all sharing ideas about advancing the overall direction of elementary science education in the Lansing area. In one aspect, they remained my teachers in the lab, but I became a team member with equal ideas while discussing the Physiology Club. Spring semester, discussion moved to action when I was the first student given the responsibility
I’m very concerned about how I look and how people, especially online, perceive me. My appearance has always been an important part of my identity I’ve consistently held the belief that I must look my best, no matter what. Undoubtedly, this was the result of years upon years of bullying, but I assumed that my body dysmorphia had improved. It actually hasn’t at all.

My name was announced. The silence in the room allowed me to hear the judges’ pens scratch through my concise, four- letter name. With my baggy blue button- down, and all black dress- pants on, I proceeded down the auditorium aisle and onto the stage. Even though the crowd consisted of only around 30 uninterested students who purposefully displayed their lack of care, I still felt a pressing audience. Turning to my public- speaking teacher, I acknowledged the “you-may-begin” nod and turned back to the crowd, realizing what I had gotten myself into.
In the beginning, physical therapy made my recovery tedious. I was only interested because it allowed me the opportunity to learn numerous types of injuries from a variety of individuals. For example, I met a girl who broke her arm from falling off the monkey bars. Or the boy who had a complete elbow dislocation, while playing basketball. Although I was entertained by these interesting stories, they made me feel guilty. I was congratulating strangers for their quick recovery, while my own felt treacherous. Therefore, I grew frustrated and irritated with physical therapy and I denied any positivity in my recovery. I became envious until my envy evolved into a depression because I was incapable of physical activities. Therefore, I was forced
You seemed as if you left out of your 4th block Spanish from those rusty gray doors on the side of our school building.
While talking to new classmates about our body biographies last week Friday, I realized something rather important. I realized that we all have different lives, bodies, and experiences. I became cognizant of the idea that we are all unique. I just find it so fascinating that as humans, it is natural for us to look at someone that we don’t even know and make assumptions; we are incredibly quick to judge. But when we look at someone from the outside, all we see is an exterior view; we can see hairstyles, clothes, height, weight, etc. However, when we look at someone, we can’t see their background. We don’t know their story. Having the body biographies discussion was such a critical reminder that we really don’t know anyone until we know their backstory.
My Interest in physical therapy goes back to when I was getting my CNA certification.
The exercise I have chosen to explore is playing volleyball, something I did a lot of in high school. In order to fully break down exactly what is going on in the brain when playing the game, each aspect would need to be broken down and analyzed. In this paper I will be analyzing receiving (from the opponent or teammate) and passing the ball (to the opponent or teammate), In each of these actions, there is a certain amount of planning and execution involved, along with some reflexes that come into play when there isn’t enough time to plan, as volleyball is a very fast moving game that involves many other people’s actions that are sometimes hard to judge.
Today in lifetime sports we did aerobics, which is running on the track in the Tarleton Complex. The class was told not to push ourselves, but I always tend to push myself, so I ended up running ahead with I the other guys. The goal, in the end, was to run ten laps and record your heart beats per hour, by multiplying your beats per ten seconds to six. I ended up getting twenty-six beats, so I guess I got one-hundred-fifty-six beats per minute. After I got done recording my information I just had to get up and walk some more laps. The best part was that we got so much time to change because of sweaty we
I intensely watched as the landlady drug my body up the stairs. As she took my body up to my room. He started to realize she was more than slightly off her rocker. After she got my body to my room, she left and came back. As I looked closer, I noticed that she had a scalpel, bag of jars. I watched as she cut my body open, and started to put my organs in the jars. After she emptied my body, she started to stuff my body with sawdust. I should’ve left before she showed me around.
The more we get into the Capstone Project Proposal the more I feel overwhelmed. I feel like I spend hours reading the material in our books and still do not comprehend what I should do for the assignments. I plan to focus of one topic of reading at a time. I will research more articles for my Capstone Project Proposal. Once week one’s written papers are back, I will review my mistakes and modify my work in order for me to have a better foundation moving forward.
While growing up, I have always been interested in exploring the human body. I would always watch Dr.90210 because I wanted to become a plastic surgeon. Suddenly as time went by my plans of becoming a plastic surgeon had all started to shift and I wanted to become an orthodontist. Therefore, when starting college in the year of 2013 at Clark Atlanta University, I majored in biology. Studying biology would put me on the right path in becoming the orthodontist I wanted to be. So, after attending Clark Atlanta University for two years, I decided that I was going to transfer to Guilford College because they had a lot more resources for becoming an orthodontist. They have a pre-professional program there that has dentistry already there. They also
During my first semester of Ballet I, I realized that there were things I needed to quickly correct such as, rotating my hips while having my leg extended out in a la seconde and landing in plié after doing small jumps across the floor and during petite allegro. After meeting with Professor Watkins she also informed me that I need to move from where I kept standing at the barre so that I could work harder at giving full energy. In that case, I quickly fixed that issue and every class I would stand at a different spot. Doing this allowed me to actually focus on tighten my footwork. Rotating my hips was an issue that I dealt with all through the semester. Before this issue was brought to my attention, I would worry more about letting my leg développé
When I looked at my schedule I was surprised when a saw I had a gym class on it. Then I realized that my first ever college lecture was Fitness for Life, bright and early on monday morning. But I did not understand that it was so much more than a gym class. Fitness for Life helps students gain a better understanding of overall wellness and physical activity, while balancing life expectations. Fitness for Life helped me be a healthier person.
