Finishing this fitness activity, I learned many things about my fitness and myself. When I started the fitness, I was pessimistic whether I can run on a treadmill for even thirty minutes. Indeed, in the beginning, I had to stop every ten minutes to catch up my breath - which always made me feel I should give up. However, running on the treadmill almost every day started to make improvements in my running time. After a few weeks, I could run 20 minutes without rest, and now I can run 30 minutes without rest. Regarding the abdominal machine, I knew I was strong enough to carry many different heavy things. In fact, when I first pulled level 100 on the abdominal machine, it did not feel that painful to me.  But, when I first tried to pull level 120 at the beginning of the fitness, I knew that I had to work on my abdominal part more - it was so difficult for me to carry. I am now satisfied that my efforts on the abdominal part of my body are reflected on my body and the fact that I can carry level 120. As such, there are many growths in my personal fitness through the exercises I completed through this fitness program. 

Working out in the gym almost every day for this four months, there are many changes in my life (as I mentioned before). In 2018, I got a medical checkup twice - once in Shanghai in August and once in Seoul in December. I believe the comparison between two medical checkups will represent whether I succeeded in my fitness program. In August, the doctor made a note that I weight too much than normal weight and accordingly the liver may have severe issues; however, in December, the doctor told me that I only have to decrease 4-5 more kilograms to be on shape. As well, he suggested the liver issues will soon be resolved as I lose that 4-5 kilogram weight. When I heard this news, I was thrilled that I made an improvement in my life. I do not have to worry too much about the possibility of getting severe diseases or the worst case scenarios. 

And that's why this fitness activity is so meaningful to me. It allowed me to have a healthier life and decreased the risk of getting any bad diseases. Furthermore, it implemented a healthy habit in my life, which is going to the gym every day to work out. Even after finishing this fitness program, I will still continue to work out to lose 4-5 kilograms (and probably lose more for May prom or graduation ceremony). I am confident my experience of losing weight and gaining health through the fitness program will be a good motivation for me in the future to continue to work out (especially in the cases where I hate to work out again).
