My Behavior Change topic will be gaining strength. This behavioral topic has became my goal for strengthening my muscles on a physical outlook on working out. There are a lot of ways increase muscle strength, such as a caloric surplus and supplements. I want to bench two hundred twenty-five pounds for five repetitions on a smith machine. Muscular strength refers to “The amount of force a muscle can produce and is usually measured by the maximum amount of force a muscle can produce in a single effort maximal effort”. (Very Well) The more force you can generate will increase your strength.When training for strength, you should be lifting heavy weight in which you can only doing three to seven repetitions. Also, working on maxing out on your weight, which means pushing yourself until failure.
When I first began training for strength, the weight was low because I was continuously in a caloric deficit and not training for strength. “A calorie surplus leads to weight gain. The type of weight you gain (muscle vs. fat) is entirely dependent on how much you eat and how much you exercise. Since muscle growth is limited to 10-15 pounds per year, increasing calorie intake beyond a certain point leads to body fat rather than muscle gains.” (Strength Health) Your body needs more calories to growth and gain strength. So, if you don’t eat enough, you will never obtain your goal. Since being in a caloric surplus of five hundred calories, my strength has increased. “A calorie deficit is a
Although your weight lifting gear will not make or destroy you during a workout session, it can certainly help to make life easier for you, and permit you to raise more heavy dumbbells. Initially I'll cover up the primary weight lifting items you should have just before you even enter the health club. And then I will discuss the items you should look into obtaining if you choose to become focused on your weightlifting and you desire to gain major muscle mass.
“By the end of the day you must achieve something tangible in order to feel good about yourself. No matter how much you may feel you deserve a day of rest, if the day passes without some form of achievement, no matter how small, you will feel dissatisfied.” (PH.Ds, Clifton, O., Anderson, E., Schreiner, L., Pg 26) When I read this quote in our StrengthsQuest text I felt as if I was describing my own personality while starring at myself in the mirror. If there was a sentence to explain “Chrissy” this would be it, or at least a very good candidate when summarizing my number one strength. After completing my StrengthQuest survey online and analyzing my results with the three people who

Over 7,500 animals are killed in zoos because they are deemed surplus, as stated by Liz Tyson an animals rights activist. This giraffe in particular sparked a huge controversy. HIs name was Marius, he was homed at the Copenhagen Zoo and was 2 years old when the staff killed him with a bolt gun. Marius was then dissected and fed to lions in front of ongoing zoo goers. What got people fuming is that he was a healthy, young giraffe. Therefore I believe the killing of Marius should not be justified.
I like weight lifting I go every Mon, Tue, and Thu. I go in my school weight room. There was a lot of people before baseball but now there are just a few people now. It was a lot more fun when there was a lot more people. I don’t go because it is fun though.
With NFL Players kneeling everywhere and soldiers feeling unappreciated, our country is in shock. It all started by a player named Colin Kaepernick, a quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers, in 2016. This event persuaded numerous NFL players to continue this process. One by one, players all over the league began to protest to call attention to the issues of "racial inequalities and police brutality". With mixed reviews of this protest, I believe that kneeling during the National Anthem of the United States of America is disrespectful because it is abrasive, selfish, and hurtful. Also, I am not sure that all of those protesting in this manner know the true meaning of our national anthem or the flag that represents our freedom.
Gymnastics is a extremely complex sport involving horrendous amounts of strength, power, flexibility, balance, grace, coordination, and control; if you have none of these qualities, you are not a gymnast because if you were, you would probably be dead. When you think of gymnastics, you may picture a girl, no taller than five feet, whipping her body across the floor in a series of tumbling, dance, leaps, turns, and ending with a double flipping summersault; or you might see a young girl flipping numerous of times across a four-inch beam. People also picture strong boys showcasing horrendous amounts of strength on the rings without looking like they might collapse. Gymnastics is the most memorizing sport to watch all over the world, in which people usually only think of maybe the bars, beam, parallel bars, floor, vault rings and
As the Olympics begin this week in Rio de Janeiro, I thought about how I’ve always wanted to be a gymnast. I remember watching Dominique Moceanu, an Olympic gold medalist, execute a flawless floor routine, and I wanted nothing more than to do the same.

“Your assignment is to write a persuasive essay and present it to the class in a week. You will be graded based on how convincing it is. Today we will be choosing topics,” announced Mr. Bowerbank, my 7th grade English teacher and ruler of classroom 110. My class simultaneously groaned at the prospect of work. I simply lifted my head with intrigue as it was already May and about time we had our first essay. He then proceeded to give examples of topics we could choose and gave us some time to think before we had to tell him our topic. My classmates were already rushing to tell the teacher their idea lest someone else steal it. That meant the usual abortion, death penalty, or drug use topics were out. I really couldn't think of anything and the teacher was slowly making his way through the remaining students like an executioner beheading criminals in a line. I have always thought that he would make a marvelous supervillain if he had a curly mustache, a tophat, and a cape. Eventually my name was called. I slowly dragged myself over to his desk. Even sitting down, he still seemed to tower over me. “What is your topic Cindy?” As usual in such desperate times, my mind turned to food. “Waffles are better than pancakes.” I figured that a waffle was just a differently shaped pancake with a nicer texture. “Hmm. Excellent topic. I look forward to your essay!” I survived to live yet another day.

Why spend money that is really needed for other things? Why live uncomfortably? Why be trapped in this hole called a home that belongs to another person? Why not live free and peacefully? When a person rents he or she usually throws away money that could be used to purchase something that belongs to them. Money is not easy to come by so why pay out hundreds toward something that is not benefit to the person paying it out. There is no good explanation for making a decision like this. The best option in a situation like this is to buy a house. Buying a house is a better option than renting an apartment.
Having escaped rule from a tyrannical British government, the United States was founded on ideals of freedom and equality for all people. These fantasies of universal egalitarianism turned out to be merely that: fantasies. American history is full of stories of the oppressed struggling to get the rights they deserve and of the controversy over these issues that consequently ensues. “The Hypocrisy of American Slavery” by Frederick Douglass and “We Shall Overcome” by Lyndon B. Johnson are two speeches made confronting two of these issues. Douglass’s speech, delivered in 1852, condemns the institution of slavery and maintains that slaves are men and are therefore entitled to freedom. Johnson’s speech, on the other hand, was written in 1965 and discussed the civil rights movement. In it, he implored local governments to allow all American citizens, regardless of race, to vote. Despite the significant gap in time between these two addresses, both speakers use similar persuasive techniques, including ethos, pathos, and parallelism, to convince their audience that change needs to be implemented in America.
