The doctors told me I was overweight and needed to lose weight very soon. Because of this I started working out. I started making a lot of improvements in my life. Before I could barely bench 45 lbs, but now I bench 85 lbs. Before I couldn't even squat 45lbs, but now I squat 145 lbs and no longer overweight.

This story relates to the theme "Never Give Up" because when the doctor told me I was overweight I could've just stayed the way I was. Instead Of doing that I went to the gym.]]> 2023-01-13 21:26:54 UTC https://padlet.com/austinbell704/6k362bm9vfrjc3tv/wish/2444070673 austinbell704 https://padlet.com/austinbell704/6k362bm9vfrjc3tv/wish/2444075593 When I was in 4th grade I loved to play football at recess, but I was always picked last for a team. I couldn't catch, run, or throw.     Because of this I started practicing with my dad. After 1 year-2 and a half years of practicing football I started seeing a lot of improvement in myself. By 6th grade I still couldn't catch as well. I still kept working at it. My dad no longer wanted to practice with me so I started practicing by myself. I became more explosive and was able to jump higher. In 7th grade I joined the football team. I started running back, gunner, and linebacker.

This story relates to the theme "Never Give Up" because when I sucked at playing football I could've just quit and never picked a football ever again, but I decided I wanted to get better instead.]]> 2023-01-13 21:36:42 UTC https://padlet.com/austinbell704/6k362bm9vfrjc3tv/wish/2444075593
