Vanessa Madrigal '19 Recruiting Profile

When I am in college, I will study Health and science so that I can become a nutritionist. The reason why I want to follow this career choice is because health has a big part in our lives, that is why we have to take care of ourselves and be aware of what we do and what we put our bodies through every day.  Being an athlete myself I know what I have to do to be as healthy as possible before though not knowing that twinkies and soda for dinner were not typical for everyone, which made me want to change. So when I got to high school I became vegan, I studied a lot about nutrition alone so that my state of health could be the best and not only was that the best choice I have ever made, it is the best lifestyle I am living today.  Not only did health have a big part in my life but Fitness as well. It's a no-brainer that if you eat healthily but don't exercise you don't get the result you want. What I wanted to do was not only to be fit but to lift heavy and work hard. Sure I get the training I need to play tennis but with powerlifting and bodybuilding combined, Not only does that help my performance but it helps me understand the power and complexity that I need to win. Training may be hard for some but for me its the rush. You know why your training and why you're putting your body through something so tiring because at the end its that glorifying feeling that hits telling you "it paid off."  That is what I want to bring to my team,  my capability to put in the work and the time is what I will show and always do.
