Well there's always questions about being healthy and being active, and I'm hoping to answer some questions regarding issues with this topic while I take this Kinesiology 104 course at Simon Fraser University.
There are all sorts of information out there about being active, but there are some information that are just misguided and misinformed. Just how much of your advice is actually a proven fact when you tell someone to do something for their health? I believe it's important to point this out because not only does it help a person directly, but everyone else that one person talks to about being healthy.
For myself, I'm definitely expecting to learn things from this. More often than not, I'll be surprised by some things I'll be learning. Not only will I learn about different things, but hopefully I can share any of those in this blog.
The main thing for me about physical activity is, well, what is really the core meaning of it? I've gone to the gym on occasion, but I never really paid attention to exactly what I'm doing. This is what I would do when I hit the gym:
- change
- pick a machine
- set a time for me to stay at that machine or set how many reps/sets
- leave after an hour or so.
There's probably a more efficient way to do this, and a more regular way to do this. I've hit the gym probably once last semester since I've had a heavy load of courses. I believe this is because I haven't made it part of my life, but something extra, and that is probably not doing me any favours.
