20 Time Reflection

When this project was first introduced I had no idea where to start. No project ideas were coming to my mind and I wasn't really sure what to do. Luckily, Tyler and Niko had felt the same exact way that I did so we decided to work together. But we still didn't have a project plan. Then, Mr. Orre came up to us and recommended that we do something either football or weightlifting related. He mentioned that we could do something to help incoming 8th graders get some time and experience in the weight room before they come to high school. So Tyler, Niko, and I decided to hold a skills and weight training camp at redwood for all boys planning on playing football. However, after talking to Coach Lugo we realized we needed all sorts of permits and waivers so holding a camp was no longer a realistic option. So, after brainstorming on what we could do instead, we agreed that an Instagram account with videos and photos on certain drills and workouts could be possible. The first step was to create the account and follow as many Redwood students as possible. Then we uploaded videos for the kids to see and hopefully did it on their own. What I learned from this project is that the adult world is very complicated. One does not simply create a football camp *meme voice*. None of the three of us expected that to be an issue, but as it turns out that was our main one. It set us back a bit not being able to have the camp because we basically had to start all over again. Personally, I feel that Tyler, Niko, and I have worked extremely well together. We split up blog posts so the work was done evenly, and we all have worked on our google doc as well. We probably deserve an A- because having to start over set us back.
