When I was applying to colleges, I was confident in my decision to major in Athletic Training. Science had always been my favorite subject in school and becoming an Athletic Trainer was a way to combine my love of science with my love of sports. I knew I wanted to have a career in which I could help people. Working with athletes to provide preventative services, emergency care, therapy and rehabilitation seemed the perfect way to combine all of those interests. Growing up, sports were always a big part of my life.

Cheer Athletics in Plano is one of the most prestigious competition gyms in the country. There are other Cheer Athletics’ branches in other places like Frisco and Austin, but not one is as successful as Plano. It is the absolute best place to go for a serious cheerleader. The best and most experienced coaches work there and they are hungry to win. They expect every ounce of energy and athleticism to be left on the floor when we are finished performing. I have never had any problems with an authority figure until I started at Cheer Athletics.

Everyone has something they’re talented at, and many people have to try multiple things before they find their talent(s) that they have. As a child, my parents like many others had me participate in multiple activities. For example, I took dance classes, played a great amount of sports, and was a participant in many plays. In my freshman year, I tried running track and field. During the course of it, I developed shin splints and I proceeded to go to the athletic trainer. The athletic trainer here, Todd Korabek, has a system that works for the whole program. New injuries will see an aide, and that aide will then write up a card for them which lists their name, sport, injury, and body part. The aide doesn’t write the injury because only the athletic trainer can diagnose. After the athletic trainer treats all old injuries, he evaluates the new injuries, which happened to be me at that moment. Watching the aides assist Mr. Korabek really inspired me and his profession intrigued me.

My first year of high school, I had experience with injured football players during my physical education class. We had a certified trainer who would come in and check them out. She was excellent and all of the football players and staff loved her. I was so interested in her work and later thought about making it my career goal. As time passed, I transferred schools. At my new school, there was an opportunity with two other girls to join the football team. One of my friends that I already knew before I changed schools. He introduced me to the girls and the helped me get involved. The job was to assist the athletic trainer and also help the football coach with any laundry, equipment, etc.

Have you ever had a person in your life you never thought you could be friends with, but you ended up being best friends? Picking a point in my life that I know impacted my life in just one choice was easy.

So many questions to how in just ten months we went from strangers to best friends.

An old staff member informed me that the morning staff Robyn clocks her in just about every morning so her time card will appear shes on time when she is not .

The first time I realized that I wanted to be an athletic trainer was during my eighth grade summer at camp. I was working on a project where I had to find careers that I was interested in. Doing this project helped me realize how many job choices there were, but only one intrigued me as much as this one. My choice to major in kinesiology was made clear during my freshman year after I job shadowed an athletic trainer at my local college and high school. High school has helped me realize who I am and what I want to become, and college will help me become that person.

As I looked at the barbell stacked with two 45 lbs plates on both sides, I questioned my own ability, and think to myself there is no way in hell I am able to lift this without injuring myself.

It all started on June 2014, I was uncomfortable in my own skin. I was underweight and was always out of breath. I ran like a turtle. At that time, I weighed only 115 pounds. I wanted to make a change for the better, wanting a better lifestyle. So I decided to sign up for the gym. That day changed my life forever. The gym made me fit, healthier, but most importantly it made me a better person which is who I am today.

It breaks down the emotional and sometimes exciting change that normally occurs with this job. It tells of how a person grows and adapt being in this profession and of course that’s in any field of work but my emphasis is Athletic training in this matter. We discussed in class how being an athletic trainer was stressful and mind bottling and how there’s always change, new regulations and guidelines and that’s why they are trainings that must be completed at different annuals. Athletic training provides trainers with a venue to share their knowledge and keep associated news in the old days before the internet. In the

I thought I knew what I was going to go through when I signed up to become a CIA operative; this changed when I went on my first field training excersise. I woke up one morning in a small hotel room in Istanbul. Alone, with about five hundred dollars in my pocket and a fake passport. I didn't speak a single word of Turkish. My handler was in the city, but if I contacted him, I would be forced to find a new career. In exactly ten months, I was supposed to return to the same hotel to meet a friend who would take me out of the country. My passport told me that I was Emir Askoy, a thirty-four year old man. I quickly packed up my things and then left the hotel. My first priority would be to find a way to learn the language.

“Your ankle looks fine, it’s healing quite nicely. I agree that you could benefit from some physical therapy,” Doctor Karlsson told Anna as he noted something on her chart. She put her shoe back on and removed her foot from the table. “Thank you doctor, I’m so glad to hear that,” Anna sighed, finally some good news in her life. She only hoped that the good news would continue. He gave her a referral to see a physical therapist and sent Anna on her way.

One day I had the sudden urge to go workout on the treadmill, so I hopped in my car and drove over to the Bexley Creekside Apartment gym. I walked in and noticed Jamaal training a client.
