FINALS WEEEEEEK!

FINAL WEEK…..

…….

……..

……

Yeah that is exactly how I feel.

We have to keep on going, I have recently picked up a injury while I was moving furniture so I haven’t been able to do much.

AND I know that I have to keep on working and keep on getting better, even though there is a lack of motivation.

Another reason why i haven’t been able to go and workout is the fact that is the last week of school and I have a couple of finals as well as presentations do prepare for and its just really tiring and frustrating.  

This is what my week is looking like so far including homework, finals, presentations and workout routines.

MONDAY – LAST YOGA SESSION/  KNEE REHAB/ STUDY FOR PSYCHOLOGY FINAL

TUESDAY- TAKE PSYCH final/ CLEAN APARTMENT / PREP FOR PRESENTATION/

WEDNESDAY- PRESENTATION/ TRY and get a workout in/ STUDY FOR ASTRONOMY FINAL

THURSDAY- LAST FINAL AT LC/ GOING HOME

BLOOOAATTEEDDD

“I feel sooo fat!” “Arrghh why did I eat that piece of cake and that all of those tamales” “I think just gained like 10 lbs from thanksgiving dinner”..

I’m pretty sure you all have said something along those lines or felt like you are about to explode after you overeat.

Well I have definitely been through it a couple of times and it’s okay to enjoy the holidays and enjoy all of those delicious desserts and sugary foods.

IT HAPPENS! IT’S OKAY!

Well I recently experienced it two weekends ago for easter and well lets just say that my sister’s chocolate was all gone and no one know how…

I weighed myself the next day and I was 6 pounds over my regular weight…. However, like I said I wasn’t worried since I have been through it a couple of times.

IT HAPPENS! IT’S OKAY!

No, I do not go into crazy diets or nothing in particular. It’s pretty simple.

DRINK WATER!

Yes drink water, it helps you stay hydrated and helps you digest all of the toxins you have taken in last night or throughout the weekend.

This is how I start my day the Monday after the holidays…

I start my dad I normally do, drink a cup of coffee and then have a few fruits and either a bowl of oats or something with some carbs.

AND DRINK AT LEAST 3-4 CUPS OF  WATER BEFORE LUNCH

For lunch I tried to get more veggies in such as cauliflower, broccoli, carrots with some sort of dip, some Greek yogurt and bananas or an apple with peanut butter.

AND DRINK WATER! AT LEAST 4 CUPS BEFORE DINNER.

Dinner is more protein and carbs based. I eat a chicken breast or any sort of meat with some brown rice and veggies or a salad.  

AND DRINK WATER! MY GOAL FOR EVERYDAY IS TO DRINK 12-15 CUPS OF WATER.

Part 1


Is it hard being a college student athlete?

 I will do a series, where I ask a variety of questions to some of my friends who happened to play at all different levels of college soccer ranging from D1, D2, D3, and NAIA and find out if being a Student-Athlete is difficult. This Part 1 is me giving my opinion.

One of the most famous questions asked as a high school student athlete, haha well the answer is yes and no.

It all honetsly depends on who you are as a student and how organize you can be.

I personally think that most of the time is fairly simple. Though I go to a community college, which most people would say that classes aren’t as challenging and I cant argue, because I’m getting by just fine and I have never attended any other university or college apart from Lewis and Clark community college.

I would like to argue that even though I’m doing just fine, that there is others just within my soccer team who are struggling an like I said, it’s just at a junior college. Now imagine those who are at a D1 such as Stanford, Yale, Harvard and all of those IVY League schools or those at the top D2, NAIA, and D3.  

My final answer is that it all depends on the type of Student-Athlete you are and what is more important to you, sports or school.
