Hi guys, I'm Nick. I found italki by chance and I'm very happy about it. For years I've been trying to learn English by myself (from internet and following my specific professional interests - health care, fitness, sports and nutrition). I met several English speaking people during my life, but my ability to communicate still isn't at the level I want it to be. I'm always excited to speak with native English speakers. I have about 11 years experience in 5 different sports and also am a certificated fitness-instructor with 7 years experience in this field. Best regards, Nick

Nick is a really nice guy. He speeks quit well. His biggest problem is that he is NOT willing to put in the effort needed to take it to the next level. He could be fluent if he would take the necessary steps to do so.

Nick, it was good to meet you today. You have a strong foundation for English and will definitely improve with the right practice. Going forward, I think working on verb tenses would do a lot to help you, as well as topics like phrasal verbs.

    First notebook entry: Introducing myself

    Наскоро започнах да изучавам български език, не са фондацията напълно (I can't understand the idea of this phrase). Това е машинален превод. Имам голям интерес към българския език и се надявам да има някой, който се интересува от моя език. Говоря китайски, корейски малко японски и английски език.

     

    I like very much those languages but I can't believe that I would be able someday to understand or to speak them. If you want to speak/writte with someone or something else don't doubt to writte me.

    Best regards,

    Nick

    Different nutrition plans I haven't started any conversation yet, so I'll try to focus attention on myself with several different thoughts. I'll appreciate if someone say his opinion and just correct me. Recently I have read and observed more about nutrition. The most people around me don't follow any guidelines in their daily nutrition intake. Some of them are going to count their calories. But this is a big mistake, because in addition to this calculation there are many other factors like- level ot metabolic rate (how well you absort the food) or the sorce type and mirco/macronutirient in the food and next (here I want to say consequence from right these food intake, is there more accute word?) hormonal reactions. Because if you eat a chocolate only, your insulin (which is responsible for the aging process) and blood sugar level will increase therefor you will gain weight (mainly fats) and all that will happen until your cells will starve for proteins (because protein is required for enegy ensure, enzyme producing and body recovery process). On the ohter hand there are statements like- proteins will case you cancer or kidney diseases.I have read many researches and found that these statement is nothing more then manipulation of the statistics. There are many scientistics that agree with this too. The truth about it is that if you already have cancer high protein diet is bad for you, but otherwise it is very useful and beneficient. By analogy is for the kidneies. In last time there are big interest about the fastings on regular bias.I have heard only good things about it, but as well as we all know in the world there aren't something that is only positive. I fact I don't like it, because it can cause digestion problems and the benefits can be reproduced just by redusing proteins. As last points I want to mention about high fat diets. It go through taboo get to something magic and now it's somewhere in the middle. I like high-fats diet at all (if you are interesting I'll recommend to watch "Fat head" film, I think it was on BBC), because it escape from all of the high cabrs disadvantages as insulin resistant, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, fat obeses, heart deases...) but also here we have to see the bigger picture and be carful, bacause our brain can use only carbohydrates as fuel and there are some bad types of fats. I hope it was interesting for you and there aren't so many mistakes. Best regards

    First notebook entry: About me, sport and English I have started to learn English because in my country (Bulgaria) training (at the most sports) secrets and methods are hided from the coaches and research-worker for small number of people (I believe this is demerit left over the communist movement in the past in Western Europe) . So I have no choice and start just by buying one small dictinary and start to do mechanical translate of different articles in net. 2 years later I have the opportunity to visit 4-month English course where I learn much about the Grammer and several different terms like- words combine and typical phrases. But my speach is more than terrible. Probably my style of writting too, but I hope you can understand what I'm trying to say. About my goals- I want to take a several differents international certificates in health care and sport performance, for example- CF Level 1, CHEK holistic coach, some of Poliquin's programs and so on. I belive that from person you can learn much more then form every textbook or english class. So if you want to communicate with me I will be very happy- I believe can be very helpfull for different type of sportsman or people that want to improve their health. I have university degree also and I can help people who want to learn Bulgarian. All the best Nick
