Obesity is one of the biggest issues in America today. Obesity is still present to a lot of people, and they struggle to lose some weight. To get the “body goals” like they want to. Groups are created to help people not being awkward. Tribal mentality in fitness should be encouraged because it helps people to interact with others and to maintain a stable body with motivation. Tribal mentalities in fitness help people to talk, help, and socialize with other people and not themselves. Is a group that athletes join together and share energy and enthusiasm with new people. Being alone in the gym will not make the person motivated, and to keep on going. They will feel the guilt of giving up on working out. That will discourage the person in not …show more content…
An individual going to the gym by themselves will not motivate them on anything they do. That is why people like to have a buddy, trainer, or group with them so they can work harder, and show those persons how they can work hard and not give up. Being alone will make them give up, and stop their exercise because they think they can’t do it. In the contrary, having someone makes them compete, accomplish, work harder, and not give up on any exercise they give them. Because that person will not put an individual to rest, a trainer will make the other person sweat and be super exhausted. For example, a 12th grader went to the gym alone, and didn’t know what to do. So he started working by himself, and do easy exercises. However, he put a timer of 60 second of doing squats, but he stop half way. He stop because he thought he could not finish. Because he puts in his mind that he can not finish. In the contrary, if he had a trainer or a group of friends, those persons will eventually make him go, and not stop in something that he can’t do. Because he is being pushed by someone else, and that someone else makes sure for that person no to give up, and to keep going. That person makes sure he knows that he is capable of doing …show more content…
Time pulls the person of not having something they want. Of not reaching their body goals, or not even go to the gym.

Therefore, this needs to stop and the benefits that are provided here are right, and they help everyone. In conclusion, this tribal benefits help someone of not feeling awkward and alone. They have the push to maintain a good physical, and to have the push of someone else. Of them not feeling like they can’t, and to feel powerful of
Obesity is a serious epidemic that majority of Americans face. The dangerous of obesity should not be taken lightly and addressed admittedly. However, the big question is how or why do some individuals stay skinny or become fat. The movie Weight of The Nations, Part 2: choice helps us explore this unanswered question to give us a better understanding of how this problem has gotten so out of control. This movie targets the obese society in America. This documentary uses scientist to research and address techniques to help people prevent weight gain and loss unhealthy weight.

The culture of the gym is slowly coming together just after two days of observations. The gym is primarily a male dominant place to do but in our college the only area that is completely dominant is the weight lifting area and that’s only during prime hours. Also on the note of personal space there is noticeably a tendency for both male and female to have a certain amount of space around them like a personal bubble.
The need to exercise is more of a necessity today. People are enrolling into gyms, though they are unable to continue. Why? It’s because people want rapid results. They go after strength exercises (because biceps and abs are cool), but soon realize that they are unable to continue. What’s
The role of tribalism in choosing partners. Inclinations to tribalism may not be the primary reason for choice of partner, but may provide as an aid for group selection.
...ody parts at the right time while still getting sleep and eating a sensible food. Many people don't understand that you don't grow at the gym; you grow while you are sleeping. If you're hitting the weights every day in the week, than a good night's rest is in order to avoid fatigue and failure. an important difference between an individual who reaches his goals and another who is not doing any effort, his only effort is loudmouthed on the person who tries to be fit without even knowing the amount of sweat he had during workout in the gym." Knowing is enough; we must apply. Willing is not enough: we must do actually i don't think that you will be fit in two or three weeks you can't climb the ladder of success with the hands in the pocket. If there is a will there is a way you have to think of your future from now, you have to push up now for a glory future forever.
When it comes to choice of where to workout it is a complete personal preference. Some people do not like the thought of people staring at them or watching them workout because they are not at the place they wish to be at yet. This is only one other thing that sets people in this discourse community apart from themselves. In some instances, this can become a disadvantage for the person pushing towards a specific goal. Certain goals can be pushed to the side or completely forgotten about because of the discomfort people feel placing themselves in a place like a gym for the first time.
Humanity as we know it is tearing itself to pieces, very small and isolated pieces. It has been an obvious problem over the past years. Our society is separated in majority by two groups, those who are fighting to keep society as we know it from falling apart, and those who are simply fighting. I feel as if now, more than ever in my lifetime, we are all isolated into separate groups, or even as individuals, as opposed to working together to work towards what is best. The most popular controversial topics currently in our country are split right down the middle, you're on one side or the other. This has left the whole country split in two. Humanity is becoming isolated into small groups and individuals and is falling apart due to the lack
Even though tribe mentality is beneficial in many ways, it also has it’s negative aspects. For example, tribe mentality can cause an individual to not want to branch out into other forms of exercise. One member of an exercise group may shame yoga because it’s too easy. As a result, this may discourage that individual to branch out and try yoga.
It's about not giving up. It's about being motivated even angered by those that can do something you can not. In life those of success often exploit their strengths to allow them to succeed. Weight lifting works differently it's about exploiting one's weaknesses towards a desire to improve. To turn a weakness into an evolving strength motivated by a fear of former weakness is the essence of weightlifting at its purest form. When you finish a weightlifting session, you may feel happy, relaxed, and proud of the work you have accomplished due to the release of endorphins. It takes a lot of mental strength but you gather all of your determination then you’re under the bar, and the final set is done. You take this focus and determination into other walks of your life, too, whether it’s tackling a stressful work project or a difficult situation at home, and you know the extra level of determination you sometimes need to work through rough patches in order to reach your goals. Those successful mentally, socially, and economically perhaps might gain the most from a weightlifting regimen. Its another field of battle to compete against yourself and win at. Something is always gained from success of this sort. For those who lack success of any sort in life at all weight lifting can be the one thing they are equal to all others at in life. While some people may have been born stronger, or faster, almost anyone can improve their lot in life
...ny friends that maintain a primary focus on exercise and health in their life. My goal is to reach out to them and have that additional motivation to do what is right for me. Having a friend will not only help me be responsible for my actions but can also improve my mood knowing that I have another person whose life is touched by my company. I think the biggest barrier to this issue is finding a time that will work for us both, but at the same time I don’t have to be dedicated to just one workout partner. By building my support system I will be able to conquer any problem in my life.
The competition between the different exercise protocols for space highlights the struggle for each group to garner valuable resources to enhance their training routine. Next, the gym showcases social laws that everyone adheres to such as cleaning equipment, avoid gawking at others, and sticking to your respective workout space. Consequently, when a deviance to any of these laws becomes apparent the gym society swiftly acts to correct the action with disapproval and guidance for corrective actions. Finally, the gym truly embodies cultural pluralism during this hour long viewing people work together, conversant, and encourage one another regardless of their ethnic background. Since examples are highlighting social concepts, let’s move
The SMART goal of the obesity program is to reduce the obese population in Pitt County by creating a healthier diet program. Different objectives will be needed in order to reach this goal. The first objective is that from July 2016 through December 2016 100 community members will participate in the health department’s health promotion activities. This objective aligns with the reinforcement construct of the Social Cognitive Theory. By repeatedly participating in the activities, the 100 community members will be rewarded with the knowledge they receive and also motivation to change their behavior. By having an enjoyable time, they will be rewarded and want to keep coming back to the activities. The second objective is that following the 6-month duration; the majority of the participants will lose 2-10% of their original body weight by changing to a healthier diet. The reason the participants need to lose 2-10% of their body weight is to either prevent or reduce the chances of gaining other health diseases associated with obesity, including coronary artery disease and Type 2 Diabetes. This objective aligns with the self-efficacy construct. By losing a little bit of body fat, the participants will believe in their ability to lose weight, and continue to do so. The third objective is that on June 17 and June 24, informational brochures will be distributed to the community members to create awareness and reminders to join the obesity program, and gain knowledge about the health condition of obesity. This objective deals with the behavioral capability construct of the Social Cognitive Theory because the participants will gain the knowledge and skills needed to change their behavior through the brochures.
The gym where I train and workout, the Dubuque Martial Arts Group, is a place where I know who I am. It is a place I can go to escape my problems for a while and release some stress. It's not the actual physical building, but rather the events that have occurred there over the years. It's where I have formed some of my closest friendships. It is the place I have invested years of hard work for many of my accomplishments. To some it may seem odd that a place associated with sweat, blood and physical pain mean so much to someone. However, in my eyes it's almost like a second home.
First, tribalism can be described as an easy two-step process that leads nations to have conflict with one another because division is furthered in each step. The first step is simply picking a group. Tribalism, defined by Jonathan Glover, the author of Humanity, is something that draws people into having strong loyalty to their group because people feel the need to create something coherent with their lives. For example, there is a person with no affiliation to any society who lives a next a community, the person will be drawn to that group and in this case will be accepted. The next step is learning the national identity. Every group or nation has their own two kinds of characteristics that make them unique: national self-image and...
Obesity is a social disease. Like the phrase, “you are what you eat”, it is common to hear “show me who your friends are and I will show you who you are”. Meaning, the people ...
