Fitness is very important because whatever we may have, if we are not alive to enjoy it, it’s useless. I take my fitness very seriously and after the lockdown it went downhill. I decided to do something about it and joined a Gym. I had interest in fitness since I was a child and that is why I selected this as my CAS experience.

LO’s explored-

• LO1 – Identify own strengths and develop areas for growth – At first I had to analyze what I lacked which was predominantly strength and muscle mass, After I understood what had to be worked upon I started working out and eating clean and a protien rich diet which would help me overcome my weaknesses.

• LO2 – Demonstrate that challenges have been undertaken, developing new skills. – I have faced many challenges in the gym like timing issues because of which I was not consistent for about a month, I then decided to incorporate supersets in my workouts to make them faster and more efficient which helped me save and manage my time effectively which made my management skills even better.

•  LO3 – Initiate and plan a CAS experience – Working out in the Gym is was very confusing for me, but with the help of my gym trainer and research I was able to build a routine which helped me plan my workouts ahead of time and I had an exact idea of what I needed to do in the gym saving me time. Planning things in mind helped me visualize the day which helped me achieve a better mind muscle connecting making the workouts more effective.

•  LO4 – Show perseverance and commitment in CAS experience. – Even on days which I felt tired, not willing to go, I still went to the gym to get a workout in which showed my commitment to the CAS experience and shows how dedicated I am towards training.

• LO5 – Demonstrate skills and benefits of working collaboratively. – Making new friends and working out with them was very helpful as we pushed each other hard and gave healthy competition which enabled more growth. Also working out together we were able to look out for eachother and spot eachother which made the whole process easier and safer.
