Your Health Journey Scholarship
As a college athlete, I have always been aware of the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle. However, my health journey took shape when I started experiencing physical pain that took significant time to go away. I was always pushing myself to be the best I could be, but I wasn't giving my body the proper care it needed to perform at its best. That's when I decided to make some changes to my lifestyle and prioritize my health. I started by talking to my coach and our athletic trainer about what I could do to prevent further injuries and improve my overall health. They recommended that I focus on my nutrition and make sure I was fueling my body with the right foods. This meant cutting out junk food and sugary drinks and incorporating more fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins into my diet. I also made sure to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. In addition to my nutrition, I also made changes to my workout routine. I started incorporating more stretching and warm-up exercises to help prevent injury, and I focused on building up my core strength to improve my stability and balance. I also made sure to give my body adequate rest and recovery time after each workout and game. The changes I made to my lifestyle were not easy at first, but I quickly noticed the positive impact they were having on my performance and my overall health. I felt stronger and more energetic, and I was able to prevent further injuries and perform at a higher level. I also found that my focus and mental clarity improved, which was a huge benefit when it came to my studies and my athletic performance. Overall, my health journey has taught me the importance of taking care of my body and making healthy choices. As a college athlete, I know that my body is my greatest asset, and I want to make sure that I am doing everything I can to protect it and keep it performing at its best. Especially playing at such a competitive level where college athletes are often challenged physically and mentally nutrition is an important role in my success on and off the field. I am grateful for the lessons I have learned and the positive changes I have made, and I know that these habits will serve me well for years to come.
