An Apple A Day Explained...

Welcome to my blog! Judging from the large rugby picture at the top of the screen, I'm sure you can already tell that I have a love for sports. I love it enough to tackle girls twice my size with no padding. The quote below the picture is one of my favorites. My senior year of high school our Varsity Soccer team chose this to be our theme. We put it on the back of our practice t-shirts to remind us what it takes to be a champion. To go along with this "Champion" theme I listed my favorite inspirational sports movies as well as some of my favorite songs to work out to.

I am sure we have all heard the saying "An Apple a Day keeps the Doctor Away." Since entering the Physical Education program here at BYU I have discovered a new love: a healthy diet. My roomates would probably say that I have turned into somewhat of a health freak. The Biggest Loser is officially my new favorite TV show and healthy cooking has become a new hobby. Proper Nutrition is not only crucial to the health of athletes, but it is important for everyone. Thus, if I can convey this message to my future students along with helping them discover a love for physical exercise then I have done my job and a PE instruction. And if this Instructional Technology in Teaching can help me use technology to do that then-bring it on!

  1. You need to teach me the stuff you've learned about a healthy diet. I am so lost with that stuff.
