In the morning I plan to walk thirty minutes before getting ready for work. When I arrive to work, I will park further away from the door, so I have to walk a longer distance. Instead of taking the elevator, I will walk up two flights of stairs. Once I get to work, I will be sedentary until lunch time. Around twelve I will leave for lunch. Again, I will walk down the stairs instead of using the elevator. Since I parked far from the main door, I will have a slight walk to my car. Once I return from lunch, I will park in or near the parking space I was previously. However, after my day is over, I will return home and work on cooking dinner, cleaning, helping my child with her homework before she goes to bed. Around eight, my daughter lays down for bed. This gives me time to work on my homework before bed. However, before I lay down for the night, I will walk on my treadmill for another thirty minutes.
I will repeat this routine Monday through Friday. On Saturday, I plan to walk thirty minutes to an hour after breakfast. After walking, I will work on an ab routine. Since it has been awhile since I have worked out, I do not want to overwork my muscles.

113). For instance, the past few weeks have been very stressful due to a family member becoming ill. I was only able to complete about thirty minutes of moderate activity throughout my week. That was less than 200 steps that I took by walking from my car to my desk, and coming home and cleaning. Unfortunately, due to the stress, I was unable to get up in the morning to walk thirty minutes on my treadmill. To increase my steps this week, I plan to get up and walk on my treadmill. I also, have several things that I need to clean in my house. Another thing I attend to do is get my Fitbit working to track my steps more

The method of observation I used was naturalistic observation. The naturalistic observation experience during the LNC lunch period provided further meaning about or local, national, and global community.
Job Execution & Quality of Work- I rate Alicia a 2 due to some errors over the past year. On 10/09/2015 Alicia was given a deposit transaction to process in the amount $500.00. On 10/26/15, it was discovered this item was not processed. The transaction was found in Alicia’s work dated 10/09/15 and had in fact not been processed. Then 10/27/2015 Alicia received coaching and counseling on how to process her transactions as she had an unposted transaction for a customer. On 10/29/2015 Alicia was given a GL transaction to process in the amount $99.00. On 11/2/15, it was discovered this item was not processed. The transaction was found in Alicia’s work dated 10/29/15 and had in fact not been processed. Alicia does struggle with quality of work due to errors for example on 5/18/2016 teller suspense was off $540 due to Alicia not buying the money from the day before her teller drawer should have shown off. Then 8/27/2016 they were made out as 150900 instead of 1509001. Alicia have shown improvement but I feel she still have room for improvement the execution of her daily job and the quality of work.

Not only is walking a simple way to exercise, but it also has a lot of benefits, “The cardiovascular benefits of walking are biologically plausible; like other forms of regular moderate exercise, walking improves cardiac risk factors such as cholesterol, blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, vascular stiffness and inflammation, and mental stress” (Harvard Health.). Despite not breaking the biggest sweat during and after walking, given the benefits, it is obvious that walking is an effective way to exercise. Although walking is minimal and often overlooked as a way to exercise, it can decrease cardiac risk factors and improves mental health due to endorphins released while exercising. Walking is a way to increase heart rate and exercise the heart to make it pump blood more efficiently, which leads to a reduction in heart problems. By fighting obesity, walking also has the ability to create a higher quality of life, more body confidence, and decrease knee and heart problems for overweight people. Walking leisurely for even half an hour for 5 days a week, the recommended 150 minutes, can decrease common health issues and risk factors. Walking has the ability to modify a relatively out of shape person with various health issues into a thriving and well-energized person. Moreover, walking is a nonstrenuous way to exercise to create a healthier and happier

Thinking about normal social interactions and normal social behaviors, I think of comfortable. When I sit down with a friend, a usual routine is followed, “Hey, how are you, what’s new?” (e.g. My turn, your turn). These questions between my friend and I include eye contact, attention, and facial expression. Usually, I feel that I give my friend my undivided attention. Other normal characteristics include: remembering what the person has just said so a comment can be made, as well as each comment is appropriate and in relation to the current topic. Moreover, the duration between each question or comment is short.
Staying healthy does not only mean to eat a healthy diet, but also to be active and to provide our body with stamina so it can fight various diseases. According to Myers (2003) around a quarter of a million deaths in the United States are caused by insufficient physical activity. The US Public Health Service (1996) has provided enough evidence towards the effect of physical exercise on cardiovascular (e.g. coronary heart disease) and non-cardiovascular health (hypertension, osteoporosis, colon cancer etc.). They followed a group of people for several years and found a positive correlation between the amount of participants’ physical activity and their health problems. So how much exercise is just enou...
Throughout every person’s life, there will always be moments in time where change will take place. This could range from a variety of events such as changing schools, jobs, or even one’s own home. However, there are some habits that help one stay healthy if they remain consistent. This can consist of altering one’s diet to a healthier one or even enhancing the number hours of sleep one gets per night. A health change behavior goal that I have taken the time to evaluate and accept is necessary will be composed of a ten day exercise program in order to completely change my physical fitness habits. Selecting this health change behavior was the best choice due to the fact that after starting my educational career here at UCI, I had abandoned the active lifestyle that I once had before college. For the past two

Sedentary lifestyles have greatly contributed to obesity, and to the diseases affecting to the respiratory and cardiovascular systems. It has been shown that physical inactivity reduces our strength, results in low energy levels, and causes obesity. It is therefore very essential to ensure we that lead a physically active life. Exercising regularly is the key to a healthy life. However, this is hampered by factors like lack of motivation, time and money.
Exercise lowers symptoms for stress related illnesses. As people start to perform cardio, their stress levels start to relieve and evolves into a sense of control over their body and life. Once the body learns how to rest, it makes it easier for mind control to take place. Instead of being so overworked over certain feelings, it becomes simpler to think things through. Unfortunately, about forty percent of adults undergo health consequences due to stress (WebMD). This number wouldn’t have been so high if the patients participated in physical activities, such as running, from a young age. Many don’t realize that the small investment they make determines a portion of their future. Remaining physically inactive can serve to be a disservice to one’s body and mind. Since exercise is an outlet for frustration, it can be a healthy and effective way to release these negative
...to the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, the adequate amount of exercise is of at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) of moderate intense aerobic physical activity per week (HHS). During the first week, my activity level was low due to stress and the new session starting. I would just go to college, come home, and study. Managing time was difficult. However, as the week passed by, I was able to assign some time to exercise and joined the gym during the second week. My activity level for the second week was moderate. I would go to the gym three days in a week and work on the weekends. In the three days when I was in gym, I allotted 20 minutes for cardio and distributed 30-50 minutes on weights, different machines, and exercises. Therefore, I think my activity level was adequate. Exercising helps me to stay fit, stress-free, active, and more energetic
