What happened?? weeks 6-11...

From week 6 onwards I became bored of exercising so I Had to change things up and add new and exciting activities into my plan.

The Wednesday weights sessions got changed and became more spcefic e.g. just legs or arms. The number of sets was also extended to help build the intensity of the session. Another thing that I did  to build the intensity was, after being cleared from the physio, was doing some rowing with Kaitlyn, we did a 20 minute row and then raced each other on the last min which made it more competitive. After one of the gym sessions we went to Moana Pool for a swim which gave us something to look forward to while working out, Motivation J
 








Some other things that I did around Dunedin was going to Kavanagh College. This was for the paper Promoting health and wellness and we played some games with the year 7 students to get them active this also meant that we were involved and allowed us to get some physical activity at the same time. Another thing that I did was veiwing some flats. When looking at some of them there were many steps involved to get to the the flat. So while there I ran up and down the stairs and added this into my programme.

Within these last 6 weeks I went home for the holidays and found this quite a struggle to keep up with my prgramme as I didn't have the facilities like I do in Dunedin. While I was home I was working at the local rest home and it involved a lot of walkin and a bit of lifting. I was also involved with a local production which involved a dance scene so there were many hours spent learning this routine. The other thing that I did when I was home was looking after my cousins. So I decided to add a physical aspect to this and to them to the local park and we played some frisbee and rugby with each other.
