Personal Statement : Training Team

Jane has arrived for her assessment. Which paperwork will you complete with her and why? Based on her goals, which fitness tests will you perform? Will nutrition advice be included in your assessment process? Why or why not?

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.

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

From a very young age, I have loved being involved in sport and fitness. My earliest memories all involve me running around with a ball or a bat of some kind either in my hand or at my feet. My love for physical activity has remained and since then, I have becoming increasingly interested in coaching and the more theoretical side of sport. This has inspired me to pursue a career in physical education and coaching.

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.

There was a group of fighters together each known for their roles they did. We have Dr. Medi Magica who treats her team members when they are sick or get hurt. Ms. Adventurer comes up with the places for the team to go for the fight when a token glimmers over her head. She has her own weapons. Twinkie Man is a laid back person that loves to sit somewhere minding his business eating Twinkies. The last team member, The Beast Scar, is our big protector that is undefeatable in almost every single fight except for when he is out of energy and needs help. We call him our captain. In every fight, we support Beast Scar.

a. Describe specific examples by indicating the time on the video that the event occurred and supporting background details of what happened to help support your answer. Three things that I executed well during my personal training session were stating a clear plan, communicating about an injury, and wrapping up the session. For example, in minute :08- 1:17, in the beginning of the session I stated what the plan for the session was. I felt like I did a good job in communicating properly with my client about what we going to accomplish through the whole session. Explaining the layout for the client, in my opinion, makes them feel more confident since they are not going into the workout blind or surprised.

I’m still not 100% what I want to do after obtaining my degree, but a Health Coach is something I have strong interest in. A Health Coach helps clients to cultivate a healthier lifestyle. Many of their duties include, assessing a client’s current health conditions, developing goals, providing counseling services, treatment meals, health screening and tracking client’s progress. Health Coaches play a huge role in a person’s life by being a positive and educational influence in their daily lives, and could save and prolong lives.

Teams are more than just groups of people assembled in the same area, they are a collection of individuals dedicated to a common purpose and with a series of detailed performance targets, working together with complementary skills. Teams of people are encountered in various scenarios, not just in the workplace, but also throughout life, such as sports, associations, charities and voluntary services.

In order to come to America for school, I either had to have a student visa or a permanent residency, for which someone had to sponsor me. I was actually starting to give up on coming to the USA for School. But one day I saw a mail from the USA embassy, and in the mail it said that my aunt sponsored me to come to the USA, and they asked me along with my family for an interview. It was so unexpected that I didn’t know how to react. I took the letter to my dad, and he told me all about how he was processing the whole time while I was busy taking my finals. That was exciting because I was actually going to get a chance to study abroad which was all depending on the interview. I had to prepare for the interview with my best effort because that could take my life up to a whole new level. The interview was in the capital

The need to start K9 Fitness with a team rather than just myself is great. As stated by Kathleen Allen, “With a founding team whose expertise covers major functional areas – marketing, finance, operations – the new venture can proceed further before it will need to hire additional personnel” (2014, p. 168). The team will start small, with each person having his or her own certain tasks to help with the initial startup of the business. Each person’s job and responsibilities will be clearly defined as to help avoid conflict throughout the life of the business. “The discussion around who does what is one of the most critical discussions the founding team will have because it directly impacts ownership” (Allen, 2014). This is not to say that the roles in the team can be rearranged, but that will be up to the decision of the owner and can change when needed.

“A team is not a bunch of people with job titles, but a congregation of individuals, each of whom has a role which is understood by other members.

My names Connor. I live in Florida and I'm 18 years old. Outside of World of Warcraft, I work out at the gym, play tennis and run a volunteer program that donates used rackets to underprivileged kids. I'm a pretty big kid at 6'2 and 200lbs. I am pursuing a degree in Computer Science and will be attending Nova Southeastern University, unless I get accepted into either Villanova or Chapel Hill (I'll know in 10 days!). Last summer I worked at Disney World's Typhoon Lagoon and met some cute coworkers. More importantly though, they trained us to be a good team player which is why I feel like I would be an unparalleled asset to your raid
