Well, I’d like to talk about a plan that I made when I was at my final year at university and that time I decided to start going to the gym so I studied about sports and exercises and watched videos on YouTube about each exercise and the right way to perform it So I made a thorough and meticulous work plan that included each exercise with its appropriate number of steps and repetitions in way that was important for the shape of my body. In addition, I calculated my daily calorie intake, so I put a diet that included my enough of my need from protein, carbs and healthy fats. So that was to make sure that my food is appropriate with my workout. However, things didn’t go as planned and the pressure of final year courses and graduation project was heavy and intense. So unfortunately I decided to postpone my jembe plan until after until the end of graduation year because I wanted to graduate with an excellent degree. To be honest I was depressed and frustrated at the beginning because I really loved to follow this plan but then I realized that the important thing at that stage or milestone of my life was to graduate and succeed in my academic studies.

Well, I'd like to talk about a plan that I made when I was in my final year at university. At that time, I decided to start going to the gym, so I studied sports and exercises and watched videos on YouTube about each exercise and the right way to perform it. I made a thorough and meticulous work plan that included each exercise with its appropriate number of sets and repetitions in a way that was important for the shape of my body. In addition, I calculated my daily calorie intake, so I created a diet that included enough protein, carbs, and healthy fats. This was to ensure that my food was appropriate for my workout. However, things didn't go as planned, and the pressure of final year courses and the graduation project was heavy and intense. Unfortunately, I decided to postpone my gym plan until after the end of the graduation year because I wanted to graduate with an excellent degree. To be honest, I was depressed and frustrated at the beginning because I really loved following this plan, but then I realized that the important thing at that stage or milestone of my life was to graduate and succeed in my academic studies.
