BIO1156 Health Action Plan - Assignment Help

Being a remarkable student from the beginning, I have always taken pride in the competence of my academics and prioritized them accordingly. I enjoy the merits of a good education and this enthusiasm and curiosity has driven me to learn with a passion that I have not yet experienced in anything else. However, there’s one aspect of my life that I have neglected in the process; my physical health. I am currently dissatisfied with my shape and physique because I have gained considerable amount of weight ever since I moved from my home country to Canada for higher education.
I find this assessment helpful because it has highlighted the areas of expertise that dominate my life and the areas I need to work on.

It is inevitable that I would require external help to act as a catalyst in my journey. I would accept assistance from a friend in India who is an avid fitness fanatic. In addition, I would research at my college library, from internet and other reputable sources. If I face any hindrance, I would approach my instructor Jillian Hallworth.
To organize my plan, I have come up with three short term goals:

• Go to the gym at least 6 days a week (66%)
• Learn a new recipe every week (20%)
• Prefer walking to college rather than driving (80%)

I find this assessment helpful because it has provided me with a sense of clarity, helped me set a goal, and strategize a short-term plan.

The lack of a proper work out regime and consuming food high in fat and cholesterol such as deep fried or fast food has aggravated my condition. In view of my current lifestyle, I am at a significant risk of developing coronary heart disease due to high cholesterol levels that have already showed up in my reports. To avoid such grave health hazards, I have to adopt a more active lifestyle with better diet that is low in cholesterol.
I find this assessment helpful because it presents the consequences of my recent behavior if I neglect my health further and encourages me to prioritize the areas of life that require more attention.

PART 2: HEALTH ACTION PLAN

STRONG AREAS:

The aspects of my health and wellness which I have now come to provide with uttermost attention are:

• A healthy work-out routine
• Maintaining a balanced diet

The actions I have taken so far that have led to strengthening these areas:

• I have joined the gym to follow my daily work out regime and utilize the fitness equipment at my disposal that I would not have access to at home. I have also changed my commute from driving to walking.
• In order to focus on my dietary plan, I got in touch with a health professional and devised a plan suitable for my BMI. To ensure I stick to the diet, I am learning to cook at home and avoiding fast food.
