Reflection: Week 1

 This week has been very fun and interesting. After a winter of not working out because of skiing, we were very clearly able to see our strengths and weaknesses compared to this fall and we found a baseline of where we are and also have our goals of where we want to be next week at this end of senior project. Aside from the physical aspect of our project, we have also learned a lot about nutrition and what goes into our body. Part of this has been demonstrated through making smoothies. We have spent a lot of time this past week building recipes that will both taste good and fuel us.   We started out this week testing our maxes. While this seems like it would be simple, after a winter of not working out, the maximum amount of weight and reps was significantly lower. We tested our maxes for back squats, bench press, deadlifts, pull ups, push ups, and box jumps. All together, this process of testing took about a day and a half and then we got right into our workouts as we made sure we con

Senior Project: Day 2

Today we did some more planning, got a nice stretch in and warmed up for our workout (which included an intense game of basketball). After that, we got right into the last portion of our testing which was box jumps and pushups. For pushups, we just saw how many we could do to a metronome and for box jumps we saw how many we could do in 1 minute. After the box jumps, I needed about 15 minutes to catch my breath as it was really exhausting. After our testing (which took about 30 minutes) we took a break and made a smoothie. Today we used vanilla protein powder, almond milk, bananas and strawberries to make our smoothie (which came out a lot better than yesterdays smoothie). We later got into a lower body strength and lower body endurance workout and finished with core.   Hours: 3

Reflection: Week 2

 This week felt like a great week in terms of achieving our goals. We set a goal to make more smoothies which we definitely did. We came prepared with ingredients, did a lot of trial and error, and eventually make really good smoothies. For now, we have 3 smoothies that we really loved that will have a place in our recipe book. We are going into next week with some inspiration for our smoothies.  Another goal we had was to switch things up and have more fun with working out, which we defiantly did. Constantly being in the gym was getting a little boring so we switched it up and spent a lot of time outside which was definitely needed. The highlight of my week was the 3am hike we did to watch a really pretty sunset. Although I had to leave my house at 2:15, it was so worth it to see the sunrise and get a good hike in because I really like hiking. This also caused a bit of a problem because since we only got about 3 hours of sleep, we all were really tired for the rest of the week and nev
