Personal Narrative: Two Workouts With Sharon Stewart

Decent Essays
Two AWESOME workouts with Sharon Stewart today! The last ten months have truly changed my life. She has pushed me further than I ever thought possible. I've gone from thinking "too" skinny looked good, to wanting to be fit and healthy. I've gone from thinking I can get away with using light weights to hearing her "yell" at me in my mind, or not getting low enough for a squat. Ass to the grass! You won't get that ass you want if you don't go down lower!" Thanks Sharon for being my push to a healthier lifestyle!! You rock!!

Now I have to set different goals in real life, which is for the better since I cannot do gymnastics forever. Before my injury gymnastics was all I thought about and I also did much better in school, but I was also more stressed. Gymnastics has taught me so much, especially patience which is why I did so well in school.…

I also support with strengthening and conditioning, guidance in nutrition and sleeping, and I also make sure the playing area is safe”. When he was young, he always adored being around the athletic trainer. Subsequently being pushed to his limits and fighting through the pain, there was always someone to care for his aches, and pains. She gave him opinions on what to do when he was alone to prevent fatigue, and serious injuries that would prevent him from playing to his fullest potential or limit him from achieving his goals.…

    The avoidance of planning can ultimately crash a physical education program in a school. As it talks about in Graham, it can become not an enjoyable experience. When lessons are not planned out it can lead to injury and unhappy students. Once you get a mix of that it becomes unhappy parents and unhappy administration, which ultimately, takes away the value of your program. I can relate this to my high school physical education program, where it is the type of program where you roll the ball out and no one is able to progress skill and it becomes quiet chaotic and your participation numbers decrease because students do not value the program.…

    “Blood, sweat, and chalk; never tears.” These words have guided my gymnastics career throughout high school. Pretty much starting from the beginning, I had to re-learn many skills and tricks that I had lost after quitting gymnastics for dance lessons in fifth grade instead of joining the competitive team. I lived for gymnastics and I still do. Walking into the gym always boosts my mood and gives me a rush of determination.…

    “Runners on your mark…Set...Poww!” Those were the last sounds I heard during what could have been my last race of my sophomore year in collegiate Track and Field. It was a frisky, yet cool Saturday in April and after a strong performance in the previous indoor and outdoor season (4x100m and 400m), I was determined to continue and uphold my strong form on this day. There is a saying that things do not always turn out the way we hope, but I believe, there is always a positive lesson to be learned from every life event. I love sports.…
