    Smelly now the coach of a high school football team, uses steroids on an inconsistent basis to help with his powerlifting hobby. He doesn’t openly admit to having self-esteem issues like his oldest brother did, but judging by his constant need to lift more, and become better, and stronger it is apparent he feels insecure in relation to something. Smelly also very

    I-Search Paper By Kellen Runyan April 18, 2016 DIETING AND EXERCISE I’ve always been a little on the chubby side but I’ve never really done anything about it. I saw this project as an opportunity to see what I could make of myself through dieting and exercise. You know how your parents always say that “it’s just baby fat” or “you’ll stretch out”? Well, for me, it never really happened. In fact, as I got older, I gained more weight than was proportional to my height. During my elementary and middle

    From the day I met Hunter, he has been a positive impact in my life. We met during powerlifting practice, while I was all sweaty and gross looking, but he still managed to talk to me. He was very shy when I first meet him, I sometimes didn’t even realize he was in the room. But whenever he did talk to me he said the sweetest things to me that made my heart skip a beat like, “I think it so amazing that you’re so pretty and that you can lift.” Teenagers often have meaningless relationships with a

    amateur exercise enthusiasts and even myself have said this at one time. When I first started exercising regularly, I believed free-weights were the only thing required to improve body mass and muscular strength. I only focused on the three main powerlifting exercises of barbell bench press, squat and deadlift. Not very long did it take for me to notice a peak in improving my strength when utilizing only free-weight systems. Once incorporating both systems of exercises I increased my overall 1 rep

    Now, there are many myths that people hold about blind people. Some of the myths that the narrator in "Cathedral' holds are, "This blind man, feature this, he was wearing a full beard! A beard on a blind man! Too much to say" (Cite). Much to contrary belief, blind people's hair still grows the same as anyone else's hair as long as they don't have any other disease that would interfere with hair growth.

    military should never be a position of consideration for females. First, let us consider the basic human anatomy when comparing the two genders. Consider Olympic gold medalists the greatest athletes to walk this earth, the gold medalist in men’s 56kg powerlifting would easily out lift the female’s 58kg at 300 kg to 246 kg at the same particular lift. Men’s sprinters are much faster and men’s swimmer carries more endurance. This shows that when given nearly unlimited resources and time to perform a certain

    A baffled look and an emphatic “Why?” were the things that greeted me as I stood in line at the DMV, waiting to change my address from San Francisco to Hanford. The look and the question would linger whenever I would tell people that I am new to the area, after I give my short narrative of why I moved, the responses would either be them trying to relate to my situation or an erred nod of disapproval. Hanford isn’t really the place for an extroverted tech hippie, the new environment always gave me
