Gym

Will going to the gym count for action??

[Cryphisss]

Yes but you have to have learning outcomes. That does not include body/muscle building but learning new exercises, machine names etc.

Thank you! If we can't talk about body/muscle building what else could we write in the reflections?

Swepati, you must master the ability to make up BS if you wish to beat the IB

As cryphiss said you could make up some stuff about learning machine names, and then literally just start going for anything. Personal development - determination, team work, delayed reward, setting goals, helping the community (you can probably come up with a story for this if you try hard enough), giving back to others... these are all the IB buzz words. So if you invent things that fulfil those, you've got a brilliant IB-worthy reflection ready written.

If you can find some kind of way that you've helped other people in the gym that would obviously help tick a lot of boxes. Maybe go with a friend or two and see if you can 'teach' each other and then you can all put it in your reflections about team learning, teamwork and stuff.

Make sure you ask your IB CAS coordinator if this will count first and make sure you can document the hours you spend at the gym. Although I never tried it I think in my school you get CAS hours (Action) if you train with a trainer at the gym.
