1. What is the importance of participating in various physical

activities?

Physical fitness is an important component to leading a healthy lifestyle.

It helps us maintain fitness, develop muscular strength and improve
cardiovascular health. A regular fitness activity improves the absorption of
nutrients by the body, improves digestive processes and increases
physiological processes. The participation in physical activity provides a
positive influence on a human's personality, character and self-esteem. We,
students have substantial amounts of stress due to curriculum, homework,
families and peer pressures. Involvement in sports, recreational activities or
other forms of physical fitness offer a method of stress relief. Physical activity
brings a sense of purpose and value, a better quality of life, improved sleep,
and reduced stress, as well as stronger relationships and social
connectedness.

2. Describe your most valued learning gained from doing the activity?

I learned that physical activity is not about sport, and it is about more
than just exercise. It is about the relationship between human beings and their
environment, and about improving human wellbeing by strengthening that
relationship. Also, it is about using the body that we have in the way it was
designed, which is to walk often, run sometimes, and move in ways where we
physically exert ourselves regularly whether that is at work, at home, in
transport to and from places, or during leisure time in our daily lives. Hiking is
a journey to discover oneself than it has to do with the destination itself.

3. How do you see yourself 10 years from now?

10 years from now, I can see myself as a physically fit. I’ve never been
experienced being normal when it comes in my weight because usually I am
underweight. I always eat a lot but I am not gaining weight. I will do my best
to be physically fit because I know my life will become better. Being physically
fit is important to me for many reasons. It allows me to be healthy, active with
sports and other outside activities. It also includes eating healthy foods. By
eating the right foods and exercising, it helps me to maintain a healthy weight
and to avoid diseases. Engaging in physical activity and eating right are two
ways that I stay healthy. If we keep our body fit, we can enjoy life in a better
manner.
