...Fitness and Nutrition Paper SCI/100 Fitness and Nutrition Paper Fitness and nutritional habits should be more regulated in the United States. American’s are becoming less healthy each year causing more obesity across the country. People are not as active, making poor eating choices, staying indoors more often and always on the run resulting in an unhealthy and less active society. Simply by changing our daily habits by encompassing healthy meal plans and exercise we can change this ongoing issue making for a longer healthier life for generations to come. As for my current fitness and nutritional habits, they have suffered in the past six to nine months. My health and wellness has been a roller coaster for many years. I have been eating on the go, never working-out and essentially doing whatever was quick, easy, and convenient. I have had some personal life changes which have made all this change in the past month or so. I have known I’ve had high blood pressure for over 20 years as it is hereditary in my family. Most recently I have had spells where I would almost pass out, dizzy and become very light headed. After visiting the Doctor he recommended performing a stress test and EKG which showed at some point I had had a mini-stroke. I feel this was a wakeup call to get my life back on track and to stay on track for the duration of my life. My wife and I have begun to plan out my weekly meals with the consultation of a certified trainer and we have been exercising...

...Diabetes Intervention for College Students on Campus The following pages elaborate on a diabetic intervention for college students. It will be developed for facilitation within the campus environment and will serve as a comprehensive program that will encompass the academic, practical and social support domains. The academic domain will involve an educational component, while the practical will involve testing and physical components, complimented by the emotional resources necessary for success in the support component. All of the facets of the program will be supplemented by an online support site that will be comprised of multiple elements, supporting each segment of the intervention. This is consistent with the goal of implementing an evidence based intervention in that use of the internet and social networking sites has become such a pervasive means of communication in the collegiate age group that it is one of the most empirically-proven effective methods of conveying information (Reyes-Valazquez & Hoffman, 2011). Further, because the virtual world is literally a place where students spend so much of their time, it is also one of the best forums for promoting the activities that support the aspects of this program, while fostering emotional support through the networking component of the internet, itself. This “360 degree” strategy has been empirically proven as one of the most efficacious strategies for successfully targeting this age group (Reyes-Valazquez & Hoffman...

...How we approach our diet is one of the most difficult decisions we will always continuously encounter in our lives. It is easy to just pick a food and begin to eat. However, it is difficult to eat well. Eating a nutritional diet along with having a good amount of physical activity during our day is difficult to manage; well for me that is. According to my nutrition analysis, I lack fruits, vegetables, and dairy in my diet. Three nutritional goals I will set for myself are to stop skipping meals, eat fruits instead of junk foods for snacks, and to drink milk before I go to bed. Three fitness goals I will set for myself are to go on runs during the weekend, participate in physical activities instead of in-door activities, and reduce screen time. To begin with, I created a goal for myself to stop skipping meals because I tend to this often. This goal is important to me because it will increase my energy throughout the day. The meals I tend to skip daily is breakfast and sometimes lunch. As a worker, student, and athlete it is crucial for me to eat a good meal because I continuously need it throughout the day. It is noticeable on my food journal analysis that I skip meals because I eat a lot during dinner time. I use dinner time as a chance to catch up on my...

...Guidelines for Freshmen Nutrition College students are concerned about maintaining and consuming their proper weight and nutrition. It is difficult to intake good nutrients while living at the dorm because the cafeteria offers mainly junk food. If you are living in the residential area you are forced to have a meal plan; you have no other options than to eat what the University is offering you. Consequently, many students suffer from a phenomenon called the “freshman 15” in which students gain 15 pounds during their first year in college. The freshman fifteen can be avoided by providing incoming students with knowledge of how to make food selections in the cafeteria, the importance of balanced nutrients, and healthy eating habits...

...Horse Nutrition Essay Due date: 30th September 2014 By: Maryann Lynagh (L00115238) What a horse eats is one of the most important aspects of its life. A poorly fed horse will struggle if competing in highly demanding work; likewise an overly fed horse will develop problems such as laminitis. The “Golden Rule” when feeding is little and often as horses have a very small stomach in comparison to their size. The best quality feed should always be given to the horse as cheaper food is generally of poorer nutritional value. The amount of work the animal undertakes, the temperament of the animal and the condition that it is currently in are all factors which need to be taken into consideration while constructing the horse’s diet. The bacteria...

...The Origin of my current attitude about reading and writing My immediate family all home schooled but I am pretty sure every one of us has a different story to tell about our origin of reading and writing. For me, it was not easy at first but it became easier when everything fell into place. My mother was diagnosed with a disease condition known as dyslexia while she was still in school but she struggled through it and graduated from high school despite the fact that she was bullied almost every step of her school year. With this notion, I see onsite schooling as a challenge I may not be able to conquer. Schooling was boring to me, I do not like the way bullies treated other students and still I cannot do a thing about it, this made me hate school. Some of it was fun especially watching the cheerleaders practice and that was it. The classes seem to be too slow to finish because most of the after school hours for me was meant to study beyond the syllabus, so I realize I am way ahead of the teachers in school. As a result of my mother’s impairment, my sisters and I home schooled. My mother will read to us all the times even before I can read by myself. She will read novels to us about animals and their origin. When I was old enough with my reading, she made us read only nonfiction books because of their realness. The home school schedule was very tight but at least it was much fun doing this with my sisters and at my own space. My father hates the idea since we are always...

...social studies. Education is the world, but are we living in it correctly? Does every individual have the knowledge? Are we all smart? This world must be clever. Now I have a simple suggestion in order to fix such a problem, let’s get rid of all of the technologee. Wouldn’t you say life would be easier when we didn’t have a device to distract. Technologee is a variable than should be removed. Papers, papers, papers, shall be everywhere. Only paper and pen for assignments for the adolescence to increase their knowledge. No laptops, why research online when there are books. I once knew a man, who had the brain of a panda. He was such a technologeee young fella, always up to date with the new equipment. He knew so much but so little. Never had he ever received an A on a test in elementary. He was ridiculed by so many. He then decided to throw away all the technologee and wrote a paper. That paper helped him so so much. Such knowledge was produced out his mind. That young fella is the set example of why paper over rules technologee. Now let’s cut the trees and make these papers. Papers with so many assignments for the children shall solve this low education. 2nd graders given 5th grade work and so on, so the world will be shrewd. Doesn’t that sound intriguing, a smart world. And lets make the education free, no payments. This concept will elevate the youth onto the highest pedestal as of Zeus in Olympia, Washington up north of this nation. The additional work will one, get...

There have been many changes, additions, and improvements during this time. Adventurer Ministry has shown huge growth as well. Youngsters in this age group are full of energy and get excited about being a part of an organization that is designed to expand their view of their world and strengthen their relationship with God, Mom, and Dad through ways that are so much fun. The roof over Adventurer Ministry is supported by several strong pillars. You hold in your hands one of them: the latest updated manual covering all 83 currently accepted Awards for use around the world. There is of course, one small problem: This area of Adventurer fun is not a static field of possibilities, it is a constantly growing—maybe almost exploding—source of activity. Therefore even at the time of this edition’s printing, there are already more Awards being...

...writing. In fact, the three universities that I have attended in the past have all required me to use the APA style of writing. As I recall my high school years, the APA style of writing also seemed to be a favorite amongst my high school teachers. They all required that term papers be written in APA style as well. This type of writing actually does not differ much from the ones included in the text reading. The text mentioned the APA style of writing several times. In my opinion, it appears to be the most popular style of writing, especially amongst college students. Based on the results of the quizzes, my grammar skills were actually a little better than average. I actually had expected to do better, but I guess my grammar skills are not as good as I thought they were. In any event I feel very confident when it comes to spelling, as I have always been a great speller. Even in grade school, I was a good speller. I learned at a very young age to challenge myself when it comes to spelling. Challenging my-self in that area really paid off as I became older, as I’ve never had a problem with spelling. However, I feel that I need more help with run on sentences and with thought patterns. Though I proof read my paper several times, it’s hard for me to see that I have several run on sentences until after I get my grade back. In general, I feel that my writing is just mediocre. However, I also believe that when it comes to writing, I am my own worst critic. Reason being, I am never...

...How to Write a Good Academic Paper? That is a question which most students ask and most of them are new to academic writing. Academic writing if taken as a whole, then it would help you figure its significance and what is more important is, it would help you understand the purpose of it. Any good academic writer’s quality is his/her mind is loaded with creative set of ideas that help him navigate through the whole topic of academic paper. Ideas lead you to somewhere and only a few good students are gifted by nature and if you are not then you can also build up a good rhythm of academic writing. Secondly, you should also have a good sense of your audience; you should know what element of your academic writing would entice them and also create some space for your write-up for reading in their schedule. You then research for resources and data that would be of great use to enlighten your readers. Knowing what you audience wants, should be in your priority because readers enjoy what they seek in your writing. Usually what they look out for is something that could either bring them a smile or get them to think over the subject. Having creative ideas doesn’t guarantee a good and well-researched academic writing. You need to able to figure out ways of putting your research in a proper format so that readers don’t feel deviated from the focal point of your write-up. You should use your sources with proper attentiveness else it would completely ruin your efforts from top to bottom....
