My Physical Projects:
For my physical projects this semester, I chose fencing, running, and pushups. Fencing is something I’m already passionate about and want to keep improving at. Running lets me work on my endurance, which helps in pretty much everything physical I do. Pushups focus on basic strength and give me a clear way to measure progress over time.
In this project, I worked on improving my ability to perform the Zwerchhau - "tsverr-khow" (an important move in German Longsword) and make it a consistent part of my fencing.
In this project, I attempted to become a better runner by improving my mile time, and learning techniques to complete miles with minimal stopping/slowing.
In this project, I aimed to increase my pushup strength and form so I could perform more reps comfortably and with proper technique.
In this video, I show my progress in pushups and talk about the project overall.
I touch on what went well, what I wish I could change, and my overall thoughts on the project.
