Literal : I, Ligia Chang, affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 30 hours of work.
What I did for my second independent task was to take a Cardio Kickboxing class at the LA Fitness. I was able to take the class and also assist with the class because my service learning instructor was the person who conducted the class. Along with take classes at the gym, I had some cardio kickboxing videos on my tv, (On Demand). I also search up short videos at home when I felt in the mood to work out.
Interperative : This semester, in comparrsion to the last, I mainly focused on learning cardio kickboxing routines, the exercise of cardio kickboxing, observing what makes cardio kickboxing exercise so significant as an exercise.
Applied : I applied taking a cardio kickboxing class to my senior project because I couldn't just read articles of how a cardio kickboxing class is. My first and second interview people are cardio kickboxing instructors and they made it clear that reading articles and books on the topic wouldn't get me anywhere. I would need to experience the class for myself. Taking the classes made me understand the formation, how to put force in my kicks and punchs, to rough out an hour long intense exercise class and learning how to do the exercise. By it helping answering my essential question, along with a significant factor in nutrition and exercise, I was able to apply nutrition and my best answer, which is target heart rate zone into my exercise.
