Gymnastics on Tuesday

On tuesday I went to gymnastics! It was really fun Like always and I know that I am starting to get into better shape because yes I am still soar today but it is not as bad as it has been in past weeks. Also my hands are getting really tough from being on the bars so much!

I tried to do the pull over again and I got it on my own again but I was on a bar that was much high so it was much harder.

I am increasing my knowledge of my own growth because I am now aware of what I can and cannot do.

I undertook new challenges because I tried to do a pull over on the higher bar which is a lot harder.

Gymnastics Day 2

This year I will be doing gymnastics twice a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays!

This thursday I learned a new skill ALL BY MYSLEF!!! ( but with some guidance from a 9 year old!) I learned how to do a pull over on the uneven bars. I was so happy when I figured it out!

I was on my own set of bars working on it, but then the little girl Suri was there. I needed more chalk on my hand, it makes your hands feel a lot better. The little girl said to try to keep my head to the bar longer. So i did that the next time and I got it! I was so excited! Suri didn't see it but the girl Kimmy did. She was the girl that I followed around the first day that I went. Kimmy is very nice and also REALLY good at Gymnastics! She seemed really happy for me! I was so excited! I had been working on this skill last year but I couldn't get it! but I got it this time!

I also did other things on Thursday but this was the main achievement that I made!

I worked collaberatly with others because of Suri showing me how to do it!

Also I learned new skills because I learned how to do a pullover!

Here is a link to a pullover online!

Gymnastics-The Re-Start

Today I had Gymnastics again, I had not had it in a long time. In fact I thought that I had completed. But i decided that I was going to call them up again and get started again. I am really enjoying it again (well it was really fun while I was there, but now its not because Im so tired and sore... But its most definitely worth it) At Gymnastics, I worked on the bars, with swinging, cast handstands, then I went to the trampoline, it was new so I did flips, and front bounders, and then I went to the "fun" vault, I don't know what it is really called, its the one that I like the best. And last I went to beam and just did the basic stuff.

I have Planed and initiated activities because I had to call them up and ask if I can come back

I have shown perseverance because I have started it up again and I have been doing it a while now.

Gym Day 2

Yesterday I went to the gym again. I was going to go to the body blast class, but it was full. So i decided to go on the olpitical machine instead of the class. I have never used one of the olpitical things. I think I like it. Will see if I use it in the future.

I undertook new challenges because I have never used one of those things things before and I had to figure it out.

Gymnatics Starting Again

I have just emailed the Gym, asking if I can come back to continue working out with the team.

I am planing because I have been trying to call them and get in contact but I have given up and am just emailing them because that seemed to work the best last time

And I am preserving because I stopped and now i am picking it up again!

Rebounding Class

Today I went to the gym and participated in a Rebounding Class. This class is like a dance kind of work out Class but on mini Trampolines. I liked it but me being tall and having strong legs made me be out of time because i jump to high. I don't know if I will go back to this class mainly because normally i cant make it due to school, but it was fun, but really hard.

I undertook new challenges because its a new class and it was hard

I developed new skills because I have never tried to dance on a trampoline before

Just an Update

While doing my Tok Homework which is a blog I realized that I need to post an update. I must admit, my CAS has really slowed down since soccer has ended. But I am going to call up Cape Cod Gymnastics Club tomorrow to see If I can go back and continue that activity. Not only will that be another activity but it will also help me with another thing that I am going to propose. I am going to propose getting in shape. Not really for anything in particular but in College I want to go out for the soccer team and I need to be in the Best Shape that I Have ever been in before for that to happen I must start working out now! also I want to be in good shape for costa rica in February.
Another thing, I have been participating in a Chem Club type thing which I will Propose as well. This is to help get ready for IB exams.
Also I am still doing the Math Competitions but they are not held all that often. So its really slowed down.
