PAF3OF - Jasmine Sodhi

S- I want to lose 15-20 pounds by
the end of the semester, as well as
tone out my thighs, hip fat, glutes,
back and arms

M- I will weigh myself at the end of
each month as well as measure around
my arms, thighs, hips, and glutes.

A- I will attain this goal by creating a dynamic
workout for myself that includes all my targeted
areas. they will be a separate workout for the
weight room and 109, so I can actively adapt to
the resources provided to me. I will also make
an effort to walk to school everyday
rather than getting a ride.

R- This goal is realistic, but will require a lot of
hard work to accomplish, which I am more than
willing to put in.

T- The duration for the goal will be the remaining 4 months of
the semester, but I wish to continue exercising throughout the summer.

1) Endurance- I think that endurance greatly affects
my physical fitness because I do not have good stamina,
which causes mt to get tires very fast especially when running.
I get short of breath, my throat gets dry and scratchy, and I lose the will to want to continue to do the exercise that tired me out.

2) Muscular strength- I currently do not have good muscle strength but I want to build upon it. Currently it influences my physical fitness greatly because I find it hard to do certain things such as bench press, since I have not yet built up my strength.

3) Will and Desire- I have the desire to lose weight and get into a healthy lifestyle, but at times I lose the will to do so, because of my low endurance. I get tired very fast, and I am not able to keep up a healthy diet, which causes me to lose sight of what my goal is and fall off track.

1) Flexibility- accomplished by stand and reach test, or for dancers it can be tested by how far one can go into a straddle position.

2) Muscular Strength- accomplished by vertical jump or broad jump

3) Muscular Endurance- accomplished by running

4) Agility- accomplished by dynamic exercises that switch
directions or movements in a fast motion

S- I want to have a healthier diet
to help me lose weight.

M- I will weigh myself at the end of
each month to see if the food
I am eating is aiding my
weight loss.

A- I will attain this goal by only
allowing myself 1 sugary drink
per week, only if I absolutely
want one, but if I don't then I
will not have one at all. I will
also try to incorporate the food
servings as recommended by the
Canadian food guide into my meals.

R- This goal is realistic because
I am not forcing myself into a diet,
but instead I am slowly integrating
healthier choices in my existing diet.

T- I will try to have successfully
created a healthy meal plan that I
stick to by the end of this semester,
which is 4 months.

My Revised Dinner According to Canada's Food Guide:

Whole wheat roti, red kidney bean curry, cucumber slices,
carrot slices and water to drink.

1) Muscle weighs more than fat- I actually
was very surprised by this because I always
thought that if I built muscle, I would lose
weight because muscle weighs less than fat,
but in reality I found out that it was actually
vice versa.

2) For every pound of muscle gained, 50 calories are burned- For this one it was just surprise, because after the last shock I mentioned above^, I realized that I could lose weight by building muscle because I'll be losing fat.

3) Cancer is associated with weight gain- This one scared me the most because I'm overweight and I don't want to gain more weight because the only thing that I need to say "Cancer" is my zodiac sign, because I am a Cancer. (June 27 for your records *wink* *wink*)
