Exercising Our Minds and Bodies

[Sana Nagori 2H]

I've been doing such a poor job of exercising my body but these are all great ideas!

[Yun Su Choi 3G]

I try to go on a hour walk around my neighborhood at least 2 days a week.

[Jordi M 2I]

I go for walks with my girlfriend and play with my cat Lucy :)

[Savana Maxfield 3F]

I love to hike and go for runs to destress! I've also recently gotten into yoga, which is a great way to be active while also being relaxed!

[Jonathan Malau 1F]

To be honest, as of recently, I have not been exercising physically that often; however, before lockdown, I enjoyed playing basketball with friends.

[Brianna Martilla 1C]

Love this question! I have been swimming almost every day!

[George Kaleb Jimenez 1K]

I stay going on runs cause it does exercise my body, but running for me is so therapeutic (ik this is controversial :3)... like the music blasting in my ears just has my head clear :)

[Sam_Marasigan_3D]

I try to run every morning :) It has been a great stress reliever.

Exercising my body I try ro work out 2-3 times a week before my lectures so around 6am-10am I try to implement a good work out. Exercising my mind I occasionally will play brain busters or I would read a couple of motivating books. I haven't had much time to read this quarter though.

[Hannah Alltucker 3L]

I take the dogs I pet sit on long walks to the beach or go on hikes with my friends!

[Norah Gidanian 3D]

I usually go on walks with my friends or try and run up and down janss steps at ucla!

[EnricoArambulo3H]

I lift weights, jump rope outside, and take my dogs out for runs!

[Crystal Yu 1D]

Mostly yoga for an hour or two and jogging when the weather is nice! :)

[George Kaleb Jimenez 1K]

Lavelle has mentioned the importance of exercising our mind and body so I was interested to see what types of exercises everyone was up to! I usually just go for walks/runs with my dog.

School aside, how is everybody exercising their minds (creatively and otherwise)??

[Angel More]

I love going swimming, really clears the mind and it's nice to go outside

[Eric Ngo 1F]

I've found myself really enjoying doing core yoga and feeling the burn as I'm holding the poses. It's definitely helped with mindfulness in general too.

[Tam Nguyen 2B]

Definitely going out on walks with my dogs is the main medium of exercising for myself. However, I did go play paintball (under adequate conditions) with some friends and that was quite the more rigorous activity that I've done in a fat minute.

[Ashley Kim 3H]

I try to run a few miles during the weekend! I love blasting music and forgetting about the work I have by exercising

[jasonfarrales3D]

My favorite exercise is definitely cardio, especially if it's in the form of something I love like playing basketball!

[Wasila Sun 2I]

I have been trying to start lifting weights. I recently got a weight bench and a barbell from amazon in my basement so I've been learning the correct form for trying to deadlift and bench press.

Running and stretching!
