I love being at EHOVE! Our Exercise Science class really focuses on the injury prevention and treatment side of the health field and also personal training. We have brand new work out equipment in our class room to learn all about rehabilitating injuries and also how to help other people get fit. In Exercise Science, we learn a lot about Athletic Training, which includes preventing injuries, reacting to injuries, how to treat injuries right away and long-term. This includes tapping wrists and ankles, wrapping shoulders and knees, and how to apply different braces. We also learn about Physical Therapy, which includes rehabilitating injuries after a person has had surgery and to help strengthen muscles so injuries no longer happen. We use our new work out equipment to learn how to strengthen these muscles. Exercise Science is a Tech Prep program, meaning we get free college credit for some classes we take. I have taken college classes like Medical Terminology, Biology, and Anatomy and Physiology. These classes are on my career choice check list, meaning I’m one step closer to college graduation! Exercise Science and all these free college credit courses, really are preparing me for my college future.
