3 Complete as much of the 30 minutes through jogging as possible, with minimal walking Final Steady-State Re-Test: Continuous jogging will be expected by this point in the semester! Nutrition Journal: Please make 3 full-day recordings each week. Recordings consist of: Water intake; other fluids drunk (yes, this would include alcohol for those of you who choose to do so); amount of any fluid consumed Food intake; what you ate; when you ate it; how much you ate Amount of exercise completed that day; what you did; how you felt; what you think you could have done better/changed Given that this course is a M/W section, I expect two of the days you record to be Mondays and Wednesdays. I don t really care when in the week the third day is, but I would suggest that it be Fridays One page per entry needed, but more is always welcome! Can be typed or hand written into a journal Final Written Exam: More details at the end of the semester, but it will consist of 10 multiple choice/ truefalse/fill-in questions.

You will have two chances and the correct answers will show up the day after the quiz has closed if you would like to see what you missed if you missed any. Grading: Point Total grading plan Two extra credit opportunities worth 5 points each, placed on top of the Nutrition Journal scores: Extra Credit Opportunities: Midterm Journal Check: Notating more than just food and drink intake and exercise. In other words, how much sleep did you get? What other activities did you complete? How is your mental state that day? Final Journal Check: Again notating more than just food and drink intake. Expectations are higher, though. How much sleep did you get? How do you feel about your other classes? What is your mental state that day? How are you feeling physically? What other activities did you complete? How could you build on the exercise that you got today next time you work out?
