Curiosity does not kill the cat.

I am new to Auraria Campus and have never been to our Campus Recreation Center. With my curiosity I decided to go check out the recreation center. I came across Mario who works at the check-out center for locks, towels, and balls. Mario is a junior at Metro and is majoring in Human Performance and Exercise Science. When Mario graduates from Metro he wants to be a professional body builder and a celebrity personal trainer in California. Currently Mario isn’t certified to be a personal trainer yet. The recreation center offers the personal training certification that Mario will do in the near future. The recreation center works around Mario's class schedule and helps him learn about new workouts. Mario currently is in no sport activities but would like to play lacrosse; the cost to play is expensive for a college students budget. Since Mario wants to be a celebrity personal trainer I asked him to put together a workout plan for a high celebrity. He came up with a plan for a celebrity that is looking to gain more muscle mass. He would put them on a four day weight training regiment working with bigger body parts first. He would work on legs, back, chest then go to working on the smaller parts of the body like your gastronomies, your calves, biceps and triceps. He would also have his celebrity work on cardio for 30 to 40 minutes. Mario would also put together a meal regiment of crabs in the morning till 4 p.m. then go to protein. The whole workout plan would last about 6 to 12 weeks. Currently Mario is working super hard in the gym because in the August Mario will be competing for the very first time be competing in a body building contest.

I came across a student of UCD named Omar. Omar is currently a sophomore and is majoring in Accounting. When Omar graduates from college he would like to move to New York and work as an auditor. During his junior or senior year Omar would like to study abroad in Europe and would love to visit Germany. Omar works in the Tivoli center at the Commuter Resource Center where he makes IDs. Omar also works at the Club Hub on the third floor of the Tivoli. The Club Hub is where all the organizations of each club are at. Omar has another job and that is downstairs of the Tivoli Center in the Pool Hall. At the Pool Hall Omar helps with tournaments that are being hosted and “man the fort”. All of Omar’s jobs are very flexible with his work schedule and that it is okay for them to be late to work when coming from class. When Omar has free time he likes to go snowboarding, hang out with friends, go to movies and listen to all sorts of music.
