Good morning friends, family and followers! I have decided to finally create a blog spot to document my experiences, adventures and troubles of being a health enthusiast who also loves engineering. My inspiration for this blog came from the observation that it seems that most of my friends and colleagues are either incredibly devoted to maintaing a healthy lifestyle with little emphasis on their academic rigors or completely devoted to academics with no care for their individual health. I hope to give advice, share stories and chronicle events that have worked for me personally to hopefully benefit someone else who is facing similar situations.
To start off I have currently been focusing on training for the upcoming Utah ski season. Last season was injury free and a ton of fun but I did run into several friends who had torn their ACL and/or had surgery due to intermittent conditions. This season in order to stay injury free I have been attending the gym focusing on compound movements to strengthen all parts of my body. Hopefully all the hard work will pay off and I will be able to get outdoors and have a blast.
I have also been fly fishing and rock climbing every weekend. Living in Utah has its advantages and disadvantages (as with any place) and so far I have been focusing on the advantages of being incredibly close to isolated natural beauty. Last weekend a few friends and I drove up Big Cottonwood Canyon and set up a fun top rope climbing spot on a slab of rock that was a short hike from the trail. Although we ran out of light it was an amazing experience to get into the wilderness and mentally clear our minds for the upcoming school week.
Later on this evening I will try to post about my current health trends, holiday ambitions and schoolwork goals for those who are interested. Right now I've got to make it to the train to get to the gym! Peace!
