Day 4: May 11th 2023

 Today was just a splendid day in all aspects. The boys started to get after it at 9:30 am this morning. I hit an unreal full body workout, keeping to swift and cool. Before this I spent some time getting my body right on the turf with various plyometrics that I've learned throughout the years. I felt very good at the beginning of my weight training, but that fell off towards the end. After our workout we got the feedbag goin at the dining hall which was my staple turkey sammy. The chocolate chip cookies today were unreal and irresistible, especially with a glass of milk. Post lunch and chill time at Rulon, we went off to the rink to get some shots in. This was a very productive shooting session and we got some quality content posted on our instagram. Dinner was awful. They tried to do some kind of Earth Day meal, even though Earth Day was a month ago. The chicken was actually good for once, but everything else missed for sure, and that wraps up day 4 of senior project.

Week 1 Reflection

       This past week of senior project I focused on strength training in the gym, wrist strength in the form of shooting pucks in the rink, and focusing on my daily nutrition to try and have more energized workouts. During the week I mainly had the split of working out during the morning, having a lunch break, and then going to shoot pucks in the rink. I found this to work well because I typically don't like to have big meals before my workout and only a little snack. Working out in the morning allowed my to get a quick snack in, either toast or fruit, and then get to work. Shooting pucks after lunch with my colleagues Nick and Caca was very fun and collaborative. We were able to get our roller blades on and buzz around the Ted like old days and kept it fun and entertaining to pass around. Overall this past week has been a major success towards all of our personal goals.       One of my personal goals from this past week was to note how different food affected my energy throughout

Week 2 reflection

Throughout this past second week of the most intense and gruesome workouts of my life, I have learned several valuable lessons that have contributed to my personal growth. Firstly, I have discovered the importance of variety and flexibility in my training routine. By switching up my workout times and exploring different exercises, I have found what works best for me when it comes to keeping myself motivated. This flexibility has not only positively impacted my performance but has also added some excitement to my training sessions. On the other hand, I have also gained a deeper understanding of nutrition and fueling my body for my best performance. Paying attention to what I eat before, during, and after workouts has allowed me to sustain energy levels and promote muscle recovery. I have realized the need to strike a balance between eating what I want to eat, and eating what I should eat. This awareness has encouraged me to make more informed choices, avoiding regrettable food options a

Day 1, May 8th 2023

 On the first day of my senior project I had the pleasure of taking the AP Calculus AB exam. Before the exam, I woke up around 7:15 am to grab a quick shower, get dressed, and head to breakfast. For breakfast I had scrambled eggs, home fries, french toast sticks with maple syrup, alongside a hefty cup of joe. My exam started at 8:05 am and went until 12:30 pm with just one 10 minute break in the middle. I felt very prepared and confident in my exam thanks to Bill's help with my preparation, hoping for a 5/5! After my exam I headed to the Brown Dining Hall to grab some lunch. For my senior project I hope to try different types of diets and see how they affect my energy and workouts throughout the day. For lunch today I ate a turkey and cheese sandwich, grilled on the panini press, and a side of white rice. This is a staple lunch for me at Proctor Academy and one I often go to when I am not feeling the hot food. After lunch Nick, Colin, and I went to the rink to shoot pucks and work
