Quotes from Student Teaching:“So what’s wrong with you today?” • “My doctor says I have ADHD, so I don’t want to risk anything” • “I was recently diagnosed with an enlarged spleen, so I’m out for the foreseeable future” • “I was at my cousins last weekend, and I was around lots of people smoking… so I have to take it easy.” • (Pointing to their arm) “My gastrocnemius is strained” • “I turn red when I run, I think I’m allergic to sweat.”
“I have too much dry skin on my legs and I don’t have any lotion” • “I fell this morning, and you might not see any cuts, but I’m pretty sure I’m bleeding internally” • (After opening lap): “My lips feel like they’re going to fall off and my eyelids are all hot” • “Mom said I have an inflamed patella (knee cap)!”
A note from the student (verbatim, and with not so great penmanship): “Please excuse Betty from gym today, her leg herts - Mom” • “My yoga practitioner said last night not to disrupt my Chi for at LEAST 24 hours.” • “My grandma has “very close” veins and says it’s genetic… I’m feeling pretty tight today.” • “My trainer gets mad if I participate in any unapproved activities. He is very large and fights MMA, so…” • “My legs are too long for these shorts, so until the 70’s come back… I’m out.”
