The Gym

I'm going to be doing my mentorship at the gym I attend Fitness19. I'm going to work with a personal trainer and see if I can get other mentors as well to get as much experience as possible. I haven't started because they have been busy but I will soon and for now I'm working out there. The Fitness 19 gym is pretty small but it gets my gains going. I will probably be with a P.E teacher at another school as well.

Blog 4: Interview Preparation

1. I plan on interviewing a Zumba instructor because she has more free time so it would be easier to interview her. Also because Zumba is a great way to get in shape and be fit.

2. Questions I will be asking:

  • What interested you into doing Zumba?
  • What keeps you motivated and so energetic doing the classes you do everyday?
  • Was Zumba life changing for you? Or for others you teach/instruct?
  • What's your opinion on fitness and/or exercising?
  • Do you do any other activities or hit the gym to get in shape and stay fit?

Summer Mentorship Component

1. Log Hours
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ar0GHkWHZi1LdC1FdjBOUVk4Q0tzd01jSUI5di1Qa2c&usp=docslist_api

2. Contact name & number
Central Care Physical Therapy: 909-590-7997

3. Questions raised:
Did she expect her job to be the way it is?
Why did she want to be a physical therapist?
Is the job worth what she worked for?
What is her belief in fitness or exercise.

4. From my experience there at the place, it made me think twice about becoming a physical therapist because I had conversations with the PTAs and they said that it's not really that fun having to massage people (most of the people being old) and it was a bit boring.

5. I want my senior topic to be fitness because that's one of the reasons why I chose physical therapy and I'm really fascinated by working out and exercising. I think fitness is a way to become a stronger version of yourself physically and mentally.
