Working out in college in different ways

Everyone jokes that you gain the freshman 15 in college.

That didn’t happen to me.

I have always been great about my fitness. In school I played volleyball, did cheerleading and was a gymnast. When I went to college I did college cheerleading and did tumbling on the side when I visited home. Everyday I found a way to workout. My school had a gym but it was small and always crammed with people. I got really creative on how I worked out. One of my favorite things to do was go for a run around campus. There were tons of stairs that I could run up and down. Sometimes I would just do my dorm room stairs if the weather was bad. Typically I would run to the school track and go around that a few times. I could then stretch in the grass and hold planks, push ups and do sit downs. Sometimes I ran the school tennis court and would do skips, lunges, hops and leaps all down the court. A real treat was when it wasn’t swim season. I would run to the school pool and then swim laps in it when there was nobody there. I Could then shower in the locker room and be ready for my next class. It was so amazing having access to all different types of fitness facilities and being totally private. I miss being able to do that. My home gym doesn’t have the same type of fun. I obviously don’t have that same running route either.
