Today, we are going to be having a conversation with Preston O’Bryant, he is currently a personal trainer and loves strength and conditioning.
Before we get started with the show I want to take a moment to say thank you to everyone that has been a guest in the show, every listener and every supporter that we’ve had since October of 2019. We are at episode 16 already and that alone is something that I am proud of and excited to see how far we can go.

We have a lot of future projects in the works as we continue to figure out how we can bridge athletic training with sports and video games. The newest addition of content is a youtube show under the same name, where I am once again having conversations with my friends John, Joseph and Phillip.

So come hangout with us to hear some athletic training stories and see how we are spending our time during this pandemic. By the way, did you hear the new intro song? That was made by my friend Tohil with Iximuleu productions. We got a link in the description of this episode to his sound cloud page. https://soundcloud.com/tohil/tracks

I do want to apologize in advance for the bad quality of audio. Preston had just finished working with a client and was on the move while we did this interview but nevertheless let’s get started with the show…

Welcome to the active variable, A show where we talk to young professionals in the healthcare field or students who are on their way into this industry. Our mission is to bring more attention to these careers whose job it is to take care of others, to be selfishly unselfish and to make this one at-bat of life the best that it can be.

1st message

Today, we are going to be having a conversation with Sandra Godinez, she is currently a certified athletic trainer and loves to rock climb.

Before we get started with the show I want to take a moment to remind everyone that staying active is essential to living healthy. There are different components to maintaining a good healthy lifestyle such as sleep, mental health, activity and diet. The key to building all of them is consistency. While the more you do the better results you get, you can’t get to achieve your goals without a strong foundation. If you keep falling into the trap of working out for a week and then off for a month, here is an idea that may help you out. Instead of thinking that you need to have an intense 1-hour workout 3 times a week, you can make it easier for your self and try a 30 minute light workout for 6 days a week. The numbers are just a suggestion but the point is that you are still being active, you can be more mentally prepared for the commitment of a shorter workout and you will building consistency. Give this a try and let me know how you feel. If you need help with ideas on what workouts to do at home reach out to me and I can help you out with some of that.

Now let’s get started with the show…

Today, we are going to be having a conversation with Velveth De Leon, she is currently a student pursuing a career in Physical Therapy and stays active by running.

Before we get started with the show I want to take a moment to remind everyone that while the world keeps changing and we adapt to a different lifestyle while this pandemic is going on. We still need to find a way to stay active, eat right, sleep a healthy amount of hours and find time to just sit and think and reflect on our current situation. Personally, I have turned to my creativity to keep me busy, it has allowed me to express myself in ways that are engaging and fun, interestingly enough I often lose track of time. So, I encourage you to take advantage of this time and go back to the days when you were a kid and get back to doing some of the hobbies that you enjoyed back then, who knows, you might come out of this isolation with a new business and passion.

Now let’s get started with the show…

Before we get started with the show I want to take a moment to highlight something important that is going on in the athletic training world right now. The month of March is celebrated as the national athletic trainers month to spread awareness about our work. The 2020 slogan is “ATs Impact Health Care Through Action.” A lot of schools take this opportunity to get in touch with alumni, their community and fund-raise for their students. Here is a public service announcement straight from the national athletic trainers association: HAVE YOU BEEN SIDELINED WITH AN INJURY? MAKE SURE YOU CONSULT AN ATHLETIC TRAINER, WHO SPECIALIZES IN THE PREVENTION, ASSESSMENT, TREATMENT AND REHABILITATION OF INJURIES AND ILLNESSES. ATHLETIC TRAINERS IMPACT HEALTH CARE THROUGH ACTION.

Today, we are going to be having a conversation with Preline Bonifacio, she is a certified athletic trainer in the state of California. She graduated from Cal State Northridge in 2017.

Before we get started with the show I want to take a moment to highlight something important that is going on in the athletic training world of California right now. The state still remains the only one in the United States that does not have any regulations set in place for athletic trainers. There is a bill in motion called AB1665, authored by assemblymember Rob Bonta of Oakland that aims to change this. The bill will

  1. Ensure that individuals calling themselves athletic trainers in California high schools have the appropriate education and certification to do so.
  2. Require athletic trainers to collaborate with physicians and update their knowledge and skills on a regular basis.
  3. Protect qualified athletic trainers from legal and financial consequences when traveling with their teams to states that require licensure.
  4. Decrease liability for athletic trainers and their employers (many of which are taxpayer supported institutions) by providing a state sanctioned scope of practice.
For more information on how you can help get this bill passed you can visit the california athletic trainers association website at ca-at.org.

Now let’s get started with the show…

Nery Edwin Monroy: Loving Father, Tio to many

Nery Edwin Monroy: Loving Father, Tio to many

By Jimbo Times / Culture / February 10, 2020

On January 31st, 2020, Nery Edwin Monroy, a father of four, passed away at the age of 50 years old due to a liver and kidney failure.

Nery left behind his former wife of twenty years, as well as four children. His three daughters and single son are all under 30 years old, and were each alongside Nery at bedside until his last breath.

In my years of working for the community in East Hollywood, no single family has come together like a team to support and advance the work of uplifting the neighborhood alongside me the way the Monroy family has. Ed Monroy’s voice helped me launch J.T. The L.A. Storyteller Podcast, and Kryzia and Darcy Monroy supported both Back 2 School Parties in East Hollywood in 2018 and 2019.

I know from these experiences that the family’s future remains bright, but that this time is also filled with other transitions. Ed graduated from Cal State University Northridge just last year. This Fall 2020, Kryzia will begin her classes at Cal State Los Angeles following one last semester at Los Angeles City College.

It’s thus a small token of my gratitude for the Monroy family to uplift their mourning and recovery process following this loss.

To support the Monroy family’s fundraiser for Nery Monroy’s funeral, which is nearly halfway to its goal, please do so HERE.
