HEALTH REFLECTIONS

For the preparation before the netball tournaments, we would have three strenuous trainings per week after school. After these trainings, I always went home tired and irritable, wondering why those endorphins exercise advocates always talked about as a benefit never worked.

I think those endorphins were not meant for students who had little sleep the previous night staying up studying for tests the next day, then having to suffer through a normal school day and finally a training that has your coach spewing vulgarities if she is in a particularly bad mood. After all, articles about exercise rarely talk about those people who have an active lifestyle, but are meant to promote exercise to the masses who are white-collared workers.

Even now I see the effects of a sedentary sec4 lifestyle in which we go for trainings once a week, and when we do, we do not do physical training but wait until the actual game starts. The pointer on the weighing scale turns a further degree clockwise around its face, showing that I have gained yet another kilogramme. When previously friends tapped me on the arm to marvel at the rock-solidness of my muscles, now they smack me on the leg and the ripples of concealed fat reveal the cause behind the further tipping of the scale, causing us to laugh.

At a petite size just over one and a half metres, I wonder what I will look like a few years down the road, realising that the only reason I have been so fit the first fifteen years of my life, is because of the trainings that I am forced to undergo, without which, I have no particular inclination to step on the treadmill and jog for an hour.

I have decided that I definitely have to take up a sport in college again.

HAHA.yeah, i made kristyn laugh so i decided to put it up.hopefully you're laughing at the notion that i actl HAVE fats. :D
