After math we headed to his fifth hour class, weights. Now, for those of you who don’t know, Joyce works out every day. Not just in his weights class, but outside of school too. He works out at Lawrence Athletic Center six out of the seven days of the week, every day working out something different for an average of one to two hours.

I asked Joyce the reason he worked out so much, and he couldn’t stop naming off reasons. He named off the usual reasons to work out; to be healthier and to stay in shape for sports and looks. But, also he said he works out to relieve stress, to have something to do every day, to stay out of trouble, to get big and just to be happier.

While going to one of his workout sessions with a fellow friend, Zach Pence, after school, he seemed to be very focused on his lifting. One essential thing Joyce told me that was necessary for a good workout session is his iPod. Music is very motivational and pumps up the work out for a little kick when you’re about to give up. After his work he drinks proteins to recover to replenish his vitamins.

Living in someone else’s shoes for a day might open your eyes to what people might be hiding when they go home after school. I know it did for me and I found out that Kale Joyce has a pretty funny sense of humor and is very focused with working out. If you’ve ever thought about taking up working out on a regular basis, Kale’s your man.
