After a few weeks of considering what kind of project would truly allow me to pursue my passions, I have developed the following plan

          20% Time Project Proposal 

Name: Luke Bryant

Project Title: Athletic Development

Project Start Date: November 19^th, 2014

Project Completion Date: May 17^th, 2015

Mentor’s Name: Coach Spencer; Coach Harris; Father; Online Sources

Brief Description: I am going to greatly develop my athletic skills over the short period of a few months.

 

Overview of Project Proposal

 

1)      Project Objective:

The end goal of my training is to be able to run a 4.8 second 40-yard dash and reach a 18-20 inch vertical jump.

 

2)      Project Rationale:

Personal health should always be on the mind of an athlete. Training my athletic abilities will greatly benefit my health as well as my focus and determination.  

3)      Project Steps:

1.)    Devise a list of training exercises and routines.

2.)    Organize a training schedule.

3.)    Train.

4.)    Record results and work towards reaching goals.    

4)      Timeline of Activities:

 January-May—train, record, (upon conclusion) present 

5)      Available Human and Material Resources:

Coaches, family, training equipment.

 

6)      Possible Road Blocks:

It is unlikely that I will fail to reach my goals, and therefore it is unlikely that any roadblocks--like lack of time or a training area--will affect me.

7)      Research Questions:

Where will I train?

How will I train?

How will I present my progress?

What will I have learned upon completion of the project?

I am sure that I will be able to complete the project in the allotted amount of time and gain valuable experience while doing so.

This is my first official blog post. My task is to invest time into a project I feel strongly about. I am leaning toward creating a photography portfolio, but I am also considering some hands on work, such as creating a garden or building a work-shed. Regardless of what I choose, I will consistently post my progress to this page.
