ULTIMATE FRISBEE

GUSTAVO VARGAS VALDEZ

2021

During my brainstorming phase of this project, I couldn’t zero my ideas down to one when it came to things I enjoyed. It struck me. EXERCISE! Something I did everyday that didn’t seem like work but rather a way to channel my energy. Under this umbrella fell weightlifting but we already had a weight room and an exercise regimen project in recent years. Next big thing to weight lifting was sports. Through this thought I rediscovered Ultimate Frisbee, a sport I was fond of at a young age. 

 My research revolved around the importance of exercise on the body and moreover what are the underlying consequences of not engaging in activities which as I found out, it can lead to heart illnesses, diabetes and high blood pressure. One of the more fascinating things is how Exercise also improves spatial intelligence which is your mental capacity  to remember and apply prior knowledge in your day to day life

Originally I planned on putting together an ultimate frisbee team at our school, and creating a workout regimen for our team to go by. I would look up leagues that we could play in as our games. Unfortunately this did not work out due to Covid 19 and school being online so I had to brainstorm how I could still do something related to Ultimate frisbee that could last long after I’ve left chinquapin. One of the things I enjoyed when it came to school projects where I could take a whole lot of clips and put together to capture and convey a message. So as I brainstormed going down the lines of creating a tutorial video was a feasible idea that could be an online source for future generations.
