Senior Project: Day 5

 Today for our senior project we started out our day with some yoga. After a long week over working out, this was much needed. It was so nice to relax and focus on getting our bodies recovered after spending this week being very sore. I then did some core circuit just to get a little workout in. Later, we did some agility and quickness which was a good way to get out bodies moving even more. We decided not to do any strength today as we were pretty sore and wanted to make sure we were recovered. We weren’t able to make a smoothie today but we did even more with our recipe book today which will set us up well for next weeks smoothies!

Senior Project: Day 15

 Today was our last day of senior project :(. We met on the turf and did a quality workout and then later moved into testing more of our maxes. We started out with box jumps and then went into testing the rest of our weightlifting maxes. We did core, an upper body finisher and stretched and went to seminar. After seminar, we grabbed lunch and went on a run and then got to work on our presentation for tomorrow. We worked for a while on the pamphlet and got ready for tomorrow.   Hours: 4

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

Image
 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 wee...
