@kylieeeeeee16 Haha, yes, the key is balancing sport and studies. I know for a fact most people who are working on excelling in a sport don't find the balance and neglect school, which is why there is the stereotype of jocks being intellectually challenged!
@xovitixo True - not for a sport, but you can still go for a walk/run, or do something somewhat active. Or, if you want a day off from exercising, schedule in another activity in the same way (it will still help you deal with Parkinson's Law).
But, most people don't have sport EVERYDAY(training etc.).. so there would, technically be nights where you have that '6 hour study period' wouldn't there?
i go to a sports/local high school... so why are all the sport students intellectually challenged =S haha. All the locals seem smart... but the "sporties" will pull our marks down =/
@amirbaang Great to hear :) Yes, I played soccer for NSW during Year 12, so likewise really didn't want to give up my sport. Just make sure you don't use sport as an excuse for not completing your work - use it as a powerful incentive to get your study done, and you will continue to achieve great marks.
@TheLittleIndianBoy It is a very relevant question! During university I put on about 10 kgs, and felt my energy levels and effeciency drop dramatically - its not about exercising vigorously however - eating habits are 80% responsible for weight loss. I would focus on substituting junk food/snacks with a piece of fruit. This simple change will make a big difference. Adding 30 mins of exercise 3-4 times a week also will help massively. I did this, and lost 6 kilos in 2.5 months.
@CamdawgzXXX Be aware that it will take at least 1 month to see the full effects. Initially the effects will not be that noticeable/very subtle. I have found though that after 2-3 weeks of exercising I feel as though I have an extra 20% energy each day and I work alot more effeciently and productively. Make your exercise, not matter how short/slow a non-negotiable part of your day. This can be tough (esp if you haven't exercised in a long time) and its something I still struggle with.
hey this vid really helped me, im getting into nsw volleyball team n i've got good grades for school cert and i wanna do medicine i was thinking maybe to stop playin volleyball to get more study time but this really helped me continue with my volleyball, thank you
I hope this is a relevant question, BUT... I really want to lose weight this year (10 kgs), and I was wondering whether you would reccommend doing this, since exercising vigorously will be time consuming, and I will be changing my eating habits
Thanks for the advice; I haven't played sport or done proper exercise in 5 or so years and although I do very well academically I do find myself with a lot of 'dead time' and often feel quite depressed. I think I'll try doing 30 minutes of exercise a day and see if it works.
@Outoftheclique Go for a walk, schedule in some time for an activity you love - this could be a TV show, but make your leisure time watching it conditional upon completing the study prior to the TV show.
@tOnkatsu07 In terms of the sport/exercise - I would look at doing something you actually enjoy. So if you hate running - don't try to do this regularly. Find something that you 'lose yourself' in. For me that is soccer, and running. For others it might be netball, basketball, cycling, walking, tennis etc. It could even be going to the gym, and working out, which with running, were the two most popular activities that top students used.
@tOnkatsu07 In terms of time to play - I would try to organize something in the afternoon/night - but after you have had a couple of hours of time to study. E.g. if you come home at 4pm, schedule sport/exercise in at say 6pm (before dinner), or 7:30pm (after dinner). This gives you a deadline to work towards with your study, and breaks your study up (you still have time to study afterwards). It doesn't have to be every night - just a couple of times a week & it can be short - even 30 mins.

Would this be healthy, since I'm in year 12?
