=Unit reflection: Gymnastics= In this unit we have learnt about sequences and the different elements surrounding the topic. Our assignment for this unit was to create a sequence in different groups which included all these elements. From this assignment I feel that I have learned a lot about the different elements in a sequence (such as traveling and flight ), as well as strengthened different basic skills such as teamwork balance and coordination. This unit has been significant to me, because I have learnt about different areas of agility that I was unaware of and could not reinforce with basic training. I can use this knowledge to improve my agility in the future.

My group consisted of me, Roman, Pjotr, Andreas, Floyd and occasionally Simen. When working on the assignment, I feel like the entire group were engaged and ready to cooperate at all times. We all knew what was needed to be done, and had few problems with cooperation overall. I also felt that everyone liked what they were doing, as everyone came with suggestions to different parts and elements we could include in the sequence.

Since I was absent during the performance, I can't really decide for myself if everything went well. However, I have heard from my fellow teammates that the performance went generally well, an I trust their judgement on that point. Since the performance was recorded, I will be able to evaluate it further at a later notice. I am glad that Simen stepped in for me on the day so that my place was filled. If everything went as planned on in the performance, I feel like this assignment was a success as we inter pirated most to all elements needed for each person in the group. One thing I feel like we could have improved is a bit more varied elements as many parts of the sequence looked similar.

Unit question: "Team sports - just turn up and play?"
Our assessment this unit was to make a sport-specific warm up. The warm up should be made up of three parts: Initial pose raiser, stretching and finally, the final pose raiser. We were allowed to choose our own groups, from 2-4 people per group. Me and Roman decided to work together. Since Roman had some experience in volleyball, and it would be difficult to make a swimming related warm up, we decided to pick volleyball as our specific sport to guide our warm up. We first worked on looking at different volleyball techniques which we could implement in our warm up. In the initial pose raiser, we decided to focus on different throwing methods. The initial pose raiser would include groups of two throwing a ball to each other in some kind of sequence using these techniques.

Unit reflection: Cycling
In this unit, we focused entirely on our assignment. The assignment was to create a synchronized performance using our bikes. We didn't get any guidance in the start, because we were to use our own creativity to come up with our own moves. We were to work in groups chosen ourselves. My group consisted of me, Markus, Sofie and Tollak. In the first lesson we were allowed to work on the assignment we were brainstorming different segments to use in the performance, most of them making it into the final performance. We had some troubles with certain people forgetting to bring their bikes at times, but I think we worked it out pretty well. The following weeks we usually continued working on the moves we had created, by sometimes expanding them and/or adding new ones. The biggest challenge was to synchronize the moves so everyone did what they was supposed to do at the right time. This also caused a lot of problems. The most major problem was for everyone to memorize their route at different perspectives, so that in the event of having to move the "court" into a different angle, we would be ready for it. Sadly, we didn't manage it so well, and were forced to move the camera around when presenting the performance. However, this only made our performance stronger since we had mostly practiced at that angle. Another big challenge we faced was the absence of Tollak during many lessons. We had to use a lot of time to explain and teach what we had done when he finally showed up. However, he managed to learn pretty quick and was able to preform as good as anyone else when presenting (if not better). Other than that, we didn't encounter any other major problems and were pleased by the results.
