Fitness friday

Today we did sonething similar to the pond run. Without the pond, in a team of three, and bean bags. However we most certainly ran for a minute. In the group of three, there was (sorry if i spelt the names wrong) Mickayla, Amrit, and me! In our runs, we did awesome; i was very proud of what we did as a team. We all gave our best shot, maintain our paces, and cheered for each other.

For this activity, my goal was to pace and dont run. I achived it and im very happy.

It has been a positive and proactive day for me. :D

I even made snow men!

Working out

So last thursday, we went to the weight room and did workouts. The work outs we did were from the internet. Also the workout we picked have to fit us and our goals. For example, if you want to get muscles without being a stead-head (this is the goal btw), dont look for fat-burning workouts. Instead, look for muscle building workouts.

I didnt have a goal actually, but i picked a workout that will benifit me and my health. The workout i picked was a fat-burning work out. I liked it because its fun, i dont need to use machines, and its something i can do at home, so i dont need to go to a gym. I also thought that this is effective because it requires a lot of moving. Especially jumping.

Insanity

I didnt like insanity this time, it wasnt the best fitness day. However wether i like it or not i still did it. Id rather get over it than giving up. I hate givng up, period.

This was a ridiculously late post, sorry.

Haha still smiling after 45 mins of hell.

Fitness test

Todays fitness assesment, i felt a bit disapointed about my beeptest score. It wasnt where i want it to be. I can say that the long break (last week) was the reason why, but it shouldnt be it. Well, i did slept more than i shouldve during the break (since i longed for it). However, i can go out do stuff its just that i chose not to. But on the other hand, i did improve some other stuff... well heres the old one:
Beep test: 8
Plank: 27 secs
T test: 12 secs
Ballance: 10 touches (i did not specify on how long i was on the board. Sorry)
Pushups: 25
Sit and reach: lvl 3 (i did not specify on how long i did it. Sorry)
Hieght: 210 jump: 240

And heres the new one:
Beep test: 7.3
Sit n reach: lvl 4 for 30 secs
Hieght: 210 jump: 240
Push up: 30
Balance board: 20 touches in a min.
Plank: 54 secs.

pics shown:
1- total time to finish T-
Test
2- total time to plank
3- total time to do the sit n reach (lvl 4

My afternoon run ii

After that, i still need work on pacing.... :p

My afternoon run

This afternoon i ran from King Geoge blvd. to 144 st. This took me not a very long time to achive this goal and i felt very good about it. Before i decided to go straight home, i went a bit farther, so the run took me a total 30 minutes. Wow.

In addition, i would like to add a few tips of mine when going out for a run. I just thought of these while running so i'd like to share (this is something that i shouldve added to my last post):
1- Stretch: its important to warm up your body before running or else you'll end up with stiff-moving joints. Loosen up dont be up tight
2- Set a goal: doing this will keep you motivated!
3- Listen to up beat music: its nice to listen to different kinds of music. However, i prefer something like dance, techno, dubstep, or anyrhing that will keep you up and enegetic!
4- Find inspiration: probaly, when your out to exercise, you might see other people doing the samething, working hard as you or working harder than you. Its nice to see thsese kinds of people as motivation y'know?
5- Self motivate!: i find this important because its your choice wether you want to work hard and be fit or be a lazy bum. When youre in a situation when you find difficult, make it easy for you (but not too easy). Also, you know what? Every thing is diffcult you just gotta make it easy for your self! If youre in a situation like this, fibd ways to encourage your self to do more, like keep telling your self that youre the champ and you can do this!
And what one of the gym teachers in my school, Mr. Vaughan always says this before doing fitness activities: "Instead of finding ways to say no, find ways to say yes."
