I am Sports

Unlike the typical assumption that would come from this, that I am just your typical jock that is not what i mean by this title at all. I am sports and this goes way behind the numbers and stats but extends to the freindships, contacts, trips and different encounters I have come across in life.

My media connection is through sports, that is where it begins but not even close to where it ends. My invovlement in sports has brought me just about everywhere I've been in the past 10 years, Las Vegas to New jersey, took me out of the suburbs and into the city everynight from 8th grade. Sports, basketball specifically, took me out of my house at a young age and expeditied my growth as a young man and forced me to grow into a man quicker. Sports even brought me to Hunter College. Currently I am a personal trainer in Astoria and am part of a three member team, Extreme Fitness Concepts. Fitness and health is a constant in our media daily and I am constantly networking and involving myself with people across the world.

I am involved and training for the crossfit games in 2011 and the media is ever present in the expansion of the games. From communicatiing with other trainers and competitors, to sharing videos and blogs on the internet, I never really sat back and examined the importance of the media in my life.
