Tony Martins - Gyming it up No.1

On the 3rd of March, our sport science class went to Tony Martins For the first time to work out. It is a gym near our school used by the public to exercise. Today we were starting light and doing just cardio work out like the cycling and rowing machine.

I would put my participation at achieved level because I had brought the correct gear but I had forgotten to bring a towel and water bottle, fortunately I had a spare shirt in my bag to wipe the sweat and drinking taps were provided at the gym. The machines I used mainly were the rowing machine and the cycling machine. They were my favourite machines so far.

Several factors influenced my participation. The first was motivation, because it was my first time going to a gym I didn't know what to expect so I was extremely pleased with what I saw.It was also my first time seriously working out. The second would be the many different machines and different ways to work out, made me want to use them all. I also helped out with my friends when they had troubles like how to turn the machine on and how to properly operate the machines even when it was my first time using it as well.

If I were to improve I would try to be more organized and ready for the work out instead of using substitutes to replace them. Another way to improve would be to try and get out of my confort zone and try to do new things.
