Lunch time coaching

Since I go to the gym a lot, even after school and during lunchbreak David and Fancesco asked me if I could suggest them anything so they can work out as well. Unfortunatelly the school equipment is pretty poor and unreliable but everything is possible if we have a barbell, dumbells and a bar, since most compund exercises can be done with them (bench, squats, deadlifts, lunges and rowing). This is my first time coaching anyone and I feel alive with it. I honestly don't know what kind of coach I am but I know my dream is to be a professional trainer. I like to make people enthusiastic about sport, set goals for them, and encourage a helathy lifestyle. I really can't imagine myself doing anything else in life, only if I really need to. This is a perfect chance for me to see if I'm good for the job and as far as i see it they like working out and others spotted my enthusiasm about it as well. I like the feeling. I have to be honest I'vee beeen lifting myself for so long (about two years) than I dont even remember problems that occured to me when I was'nt aware of the rules of bodybuilding. Its hard to realize that other might struggle with exercises I'm already comfortable with yet I'm trying to do my best. Sometimes I'm scared and make all the possible safety steps so no trouble occurs to Dave and Francesco (they don't get injured) but Im not an official trainer (yet). I'm not fully aware of tihngs of course. I don't have pictures but I will ask someone to take them sometime. Probably tomorrow, since we are all doing it every lunchbreak. The reason why I'm happy this opportunity was given is because I can also fulfill other Service requirements and help them in their Activity part of CAS as well. Pictures coming soon :)

Cooking with Peter (long time no update :( )

I havent updated for a while on my cooking, but unfortunately I was busy on weekends studying and honestly, my parents did the cooking... This weekend I managed to make time for myself to cook some 'Rizses hús' which is as simple as cooking up carrots, some pork, rice, some spices and cook it for a while. The carrots give a real good taste to it so my dad loves it :) I didn't try it actually, only when it was ready just to see what I made, but I honestly hate the taste of pork. Yet it is useful to practice since if my dad is not around I can cook it with chicken (he thinks that chicken is 'not meat' so I can't really cook those foods which he likes with chicken...) I also learned to cook a soup called 'Tárkonyos soup'. We cooked that with chicken so i just ate that instead.. the special thing about the soup is that when its ready you just put the juice of half a lemon in the bowl and it brings out all the taste :) This I'm definetly happy I learned, but this was intructed by my mother (she really knows how to cook it) Since both recipies are simple but tasty it was easy to learn making it! Here are some pictures of them. I think next time I will be able to do them without any help, really!

 

Weather club

Even though Weather Club started a while ago and data has been collected ever since since we work collaboretively together  on this, it is still debatable what the real purpose is going to be. I'm hoping that we have stats from previous years of Weather Clubs, therefore we will be able to comapre this year's results and draw a conclusion whether Global Warming does take place in Moscow (therefore dealing with issues on a global scale )? If previous stats are not available I was thinking of posting the month's weather on the CAS board every month in a neat was to serve the purpose of inroming other students about weather changes in moscow, maybe giving a chance to next year's students to compare next year's weather with ours to do what we couldnt due to the lacking previous data. I just posted to mobilize the team on the topic so soon I will be updating what other ideas might pop into our heads to give a purpose to our Weather Club :)

This is how our plan looks like so far, and when I update next time I will include the picture of the data collected already!
