Descriptive Assignment

“Watch for gesture”

For this assignment, I had a lot of choices to make. At the moment I have a few friends visiting me from different places in the U.S. That is why I decided to specifically look at them and try to find something that catches my eye. One guy that then caught my eye was Jorge Loredo. Jorge is an alumnus here at Morningside and a climber for the Mexican National Climbing Federation.

Based on his climbing practice Jorge needs to stretch a lot. He goes climbing every other day and always climbs for 4 or more hours. Because of Jorge’s need to stretch, he does it constantly. He can’t stop stretching and always does it, no matter where he is. When stretching he sometimes just stands up and stretches in the middle of the room. In addition to that he also cracks all of his bones. He will start with his neck and then go on to make his fingers and arms crack. This shows how much work it takes to be successful in climbing.

  1. You could describe some of the stretches. Are they like what
    the average guy does in the gym, or something seemingly
    specialized for climbers? Do climbers have a specific build?
    A certain kind of physique?
