PATH-FIT 1 GROUP 5 SCRIPT:

Arjigie: Good day, everyone! Welcome to our afternoon talk show. I’m your host, Arjigie Bayeta 


Chime: and I’m Chime Hallasgo and it is a great privilege that we have four world renowned
coaches with us today. Isn’t it, Arjigie?

Arjigie: Yes, it is, indeed. Now, let’s meet our first coach: Miss Alyssa Paculba! She’s a tennis
coach from California, USA. She already joined 8 International competition and won 3 silver
awards and 2 gold awards as a champion. And today she would to give some exercises and
tips that has mold her to have that kind strength.

Chime: Let us welcome, Miss Alyssa Paculba.

Nikka: Hi, everyone! In tennis, upper arm strength is important. Strength is the ability to move
against a resistance. It’s important because it maintains muscle tissue, increases strength,
improves bone health, controls body fat, and decreases risk of injury.

N: Here’s a workout to strengthen your rotator cuff: stretch a resistance band between your
forearms. Move your left and right shoulder in circles in both directions along the wall. You can
do this exercise at different heights to stimulate you muscles more.

N: This is another one for your arms: stand with your feet hip-width apart and hold a light
weight (like a water bottle) in your left and right hand. Let your arms hang loosely at your sides
and lift the bottles upward making small circles until they are in a horizontal position. Briefly
hold this position and then slowly lower your arms again.

N: And that’s it! Make this a routine and you’ll have strong arms to hit a fast ball across the
court before you know it.

Chime: Wow! You are so interesting Miss Alyssa. Thank you for sharing your tips with us this
afternoon. Isn’t it interesting Arjigie?

Arjigie: Chime, I too, was amazed. Thank you, Alyssa! I hope to meet you again someday. Now
let’s meet the next coach. She’s a gymnast coach from Singapore and no other than Miss
Patricia Osabel.

Chime: Good day! Since you are a gymnast coach for around 8 years already, you must be
flexible. Can you share with us some secrets of how to become flexible?

Patricia: Thank you for inviting me here. Now, flexibility is the ability to increase the range of
motion at joints. It helps improves posture and balance, physical performance, allows you to
be open and calm, and it makes cardio activity lighter and easier. It also lengthens your
muscles for a longer and leaner look. I’ll show you some examples.

P: Here’s a standing hamstring stretch; stand tall with your feet hip-width apart, knees slightly
bent, arms by your side. Next is you have to exhale as you bend forward at the hips, lowering
your head toward the floor, while keeping your head, neck and shoulders relaxed. Wrap your
arms around the backs of your legs and hold anywhere from 45 second to two minutes, bend
your knees and roll up when you’re done.

P: Here’s the last one: a lunge with a spinal twist. Star standing with your feet together. Then
take a big step forward with your left foot, so that you are in a staggered stance. Bend your left
knee and drop into a lunge, keeping your right leg straight being you with your toes on the
ground, so you feel a stretch at the front of your right thigh. Place your right hand on the floor
and twist your upper body to the left as you extend your left arm toward the ceiling. Hold this
for 30 seconds to 2 minutes and repeat on the other side. That’s it!

Arjigie: Wow! Thank you so much Miss Patricia! I think I should join your group! I really want to
be flexible too.

Chime: Me too. I think I’m not that flexible and I have the urge to finally go to the gym and have
Miss Patricia as my coach.

A: Next, it’s an honour to introduce this very influential man who doesn’t just teach in Law
School but also coaches track and field on the side. It’s my pleasure to introduce to you, the so
called “Man of Agility” Mr. Donsan.

DonSan: Oh, thank you for that kind introduction. I will never say no to all of you guys since I
heard you want to learn some agility to keep your body movin’. Here are some exercises to
help you.

D: Agility is the ability to move one’s body in different levels or in space and in different
directions. It’s important to develop because it can prevent injuries, improve mind-body
connection, balance and coordination, recovery time, and increase results in minimal time.

D: First, is the single-leg hop. Stand in front of the ladder. Lift left foot off the ground then hop
forward through the squares on the right foot. At the end of the ladder, run backward to the
start and repeat. Do 30 seconds on one side, then switch.

D: Second are the lateral lunges. Stand facing the right ladder rail. Jump into a lunge on your
right leg, with the right foot in the first square and the left foot outside the ladder. Jump,
switching legs in mid-air, so the left foot is in the square. Jump and switch legs again, this time
jumping forward to the next square. Continue repeating. At the end of the ladder, run to the
start and repeat.

Chime: Thank you, Mr. Don Son, man of Agility, indeed.

Now, for our last guest we have , she’s a very famous Filipina actress who doesn’t just balance
work and school but is also a famous yoga instructor in her hometown. Let us welcome Miss
Risa!

Risa: Oh, thank you so much. I just had my class there in the gym and I was totally excited on
my way here. I just really wanna teach you all my balancing techniques. Are you all excited to
learn another skill this morning?

R: First of all, balance is the ability to assume and maintain body position. Whether static or
moving, the maintenance of balance involves the working together of muscles to keep the
body on its base. Having balance improves running technique, strengthens and tones the
obliques and the muscles of the hips, and improves coordination and ability to react to sudden
changes of direction.

R: Let’s start with the sumo squat with outer thigh pulse. Start in a wide stance, feet turned out
45 degrees. Bend at your knees and hips to lower into a sumo squat. Keep your torso upright.
As you stand, extend one leg and the opposite arm. Hold and pulse your leg up 2 and 3 inches
three times. Put your leg back down to start position and repeat. Alternate sides for 12 reps.

R: And the last one is my favourite, the curtsy lunge with oblique crunch. Stand with your feet
hip-width apart, fingertips at your ears and elbows out wide. Cross one leg behind you and
lower into a curtsy lunge. Without rotating your hips, stand and bring that same leg up to meet
the same side elbow for an oblique crunch. Do 12 reps, and then switch legs. That’s all I have
to share for today.

Arjigie: Thank you to all of you! Hope you learned something today. Didn’t you learned a lot
today, Chime?

Chime: Yes I did and I had a lot of fun. This is your host Chime Hallasgo

Arjigie: And your host, Arjigie Bayeta. Officially signing off!
