Physical fitness is an essential component to a healthy lifestyle. My parents literally abide by it and are very particular about maintaining their physical fitness. This inspired me to ensure my fitness too. Thus, I joined a gym in order to make myself fitter majorly by increasing my endurance and agility and also by toning my body well. In this CAS experience, I achieved LO 2 and 4.<\/span><\/p>\n

I am generally quite an active person, however, when it comes to exercising, especially gymming, I can easily call myself lazy. As I also play basketball, it is essential for me to have a good endurance and agility. I started going to the gym for 1 hour in the evening after school from Monday to Friday. My father helped me get a gym instructor for myself too.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Initially, for about 2 weeks, I went regularly, with full enthusiasm. However, sometime later, I didn\u2019t like to go to the gym. I was finding it very difficult to remain regular and consistent. Exercising solely in the gym was not what I liked, and so, my mother suggested me to take up swimming. I used to be a great swimmer earlier, however, as I grew up, almost stopped going. It was a great idea.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I then planned my schedule in a way I would look forward to working out. I decided I will go to the gym on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and on Tuesdays and Thursdays I would go for swimming. Swimming too has been an extremely rigorous and enjoyable workout for me, and my instructor also said it will be a great means of increasing me endurance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In this way, I was able to overcome the challenge of boredom and laziness. My instructor planned rest of the three days in the manner that I pay equal attention to my agility, core strength, etc as well. I came to realise that I had good flexibility as I was into Indian classical dancing as well. What I had developed here, I could observe in my basketball games too. I could perform much better than before and felt less tired too.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This CAS experience, being my most challenging one, has helped me develop greater physical fitness and thereby, lots of confidence about my body and my game too. I am proud to have overcome my challenges and shown commitment and perseverance throughout my CAS experience. I believe I lead a healthier lifestyle now.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
