Circuit Training at Home
LO4 Show Commitment and perseverance in CAS experiences
Under the circuit breaker context, I found my skills developed in circuit training valuable in maintaining a healthy lifestyle for myself. Despite my condominium gym being closed, I have a rowing machine at home, which makes exercising a lot easier. I took notes from my previous training sessions to design a series of training routines to maximize my training efficiency, as well as making my training more targeted. Running outdoors is not recommended as it is quite uncomfortable to run in masks. Rowing exercises your whole body, but sit ups can help me train my leg muscles specifically in terms of strength and endurance. This made me reflect on the spirit of exercising, which is essentially self care. It is important to correctly treat yourself and adjust to counter difficulties that you may encounter. In terms of the circuit breaker, we have lost offline human interaction to some degree, and the freedom to release your stress at places like the cinema or parks. Exercising helps relief stress and refocus your mind. To a degree, being able to keep exercising has helped me fare with home learning.
