I was offered a kinesiology course as an elective. Kinesiology is an integral part of physical therapy. I decided to take it because I was part of the football team and I needed to keep myself in perfect physical shape. From what I understood about kinesiology, I thought it would be helpful to know the inner workings of training and staying physically fit. During my time on that course I learned about the musculoskeletal system, nutrition, anatomy and pretty much everything to do with kinesiology. I didn't really consider a career in kinesiology at the time, I had a stronger interest in science, but my interest in kinesiology was still prevalent. If I had followed this interest, my choice would have been much easier to make and I would already have a plan of what I want to do. I stated previously that the only thing I was sure of about what I wanted in my career choice was to be able to help people in some way. Being a physical therapist would allow me to do exactly that
