Since starting at Montgomery College four years ago I have changed tremendously. Metamorphosing from a timid girl who only spoke when spoken to and who dared not make eye contact, to someone who has the confidence to initiate a conversation and will go to professors when she needs help (even if sometimes I still go too late..). In the last two semesters alone I have changed so much, that choosing behaviors to write about is difficult and has required a great deal of self reflection. The…

1. During group time, T along with the rest of his group were given the instructions by the gym teacher. She said, “I want you to see how many pull ups you can do. Don’t stop when you begin feeling pain, try and see if you can hold it a little longer.” T was the first person in his group to go. Before T went up to the bar, he turned his head half way to the side, just for his friend to see his face. He smirked and then quickly turned his head around and leaped toward the bar. The teacher asked T…

On the north end of the University of West Alabama football field a freshman cheerleader is seen with a tiger paw tattoo on her left cheek, an ear to ear smile on her face and a grip so tight on her pom-poms it looks as if she will never let go. Hannah Grace takes in every face in the stands, the smells from the concession stand, the constant beat from the band, but most of all, finally a team to cheer for. Being a member of an organized squad is an all new experience for her. After being…

muscle mass tend to avoid gym machines and head to the free weights area. Despite the fact that machines are not my favorite compared to ground based movements, let's make it clear first: Your body doesn’t know whether you are lying down on a bench press doing free weights or whether you are seated on a bench press machine, what it knows is muscle tension and overload. That’s the only language your muscles speak, tension and overload. They don't know whether you are in a fancy gym using branded…

Third, why some people workout so hard but still no curves? Because people have the misunderstanding that lifting weights will become hulk-like. However, lean muscle mass naturally decreases with age. All of those muscle loss along with ages will be replaced by fat if people do not workout, especially weight training. Weight training can help people reverse the trend — at any age. (Weight training: Improve your muscular fitness) Each running machine will display the time of workout and related…

Well I had lifted my head up during mid-jump and his shin made direct contact with my skull, which put me into a dizzy mindset.

It was something that Tsuna and Kairi often did. It was “their thing” as Kairi dubbed it and it was one of the little things that Tsuna learned to love. As Tsuna opened the gym, he was greeted with cheers. The whole gym was completely filled with students cheering his name. Everyone had their gazes locked on his form with smiles on their faces. It was heartwarming. It was spectacular. It put so much pressure on his shoulders. “T-they’re all…

The kids inside P.E all you here talking about should me be on a team but really they do not so they have to beat the other team. Let me tell you is the best players for soccer inside are Bryan, Nathan, Carlos, Kelvin, Jeffrey, Nick, and I. The P.E coach comes in and says line up on the wall so he picks the teams by one or two. I mostly get Kelvin for my goalkeeper and they never score but if they are lucky, they do. Therefore, the other team is not that good so I take it easy for I don’t get to…
