Last Day

Yesterday morning was my last day at Tekulve. Over the summer, I completed 400 hours. It's sad to think that I might never see these kids again. I wish all of the athletes the best of luck.

Overall, I think that I learned a lot about Tekulve, what they do, and why this program works. I learned everything such as scheduling, Active Dynamic Warm-up, plyometrics, spotting athletes on the treadmill, weight machines, pre-tests and post-tests, and a little bit about Quickbooks. I know have a better understanding why this program works and why athletes continue to come back to us to make themselves faster, stronger, and more agile.

I could see myself doing this as my first job, however, I would have to consider some other things such as location, salary, benefits, and gas. I like the people that I work with and that's a big deal in my book. Salary and benefits are obviously the most important, but location and gas are also something to think about. Would I really want to drive 1 hour everyday, 5 days a week? Do I want to put about 300 miles on my car every week? Is the salary going to cover these expenses? These are questions that I think about when deciding what I want to do with my life.
