    Slide Board Product Information The first slide board was designed by Former Miami Dolphins football player Jeff Markland and his initial purpose was to use in the rehabilitation of injured knee joints (Lloyd, 1992). Markland created his own model, and called it Kneedspeed, after having seen Eric Heiden, a gold medal speed skater in the Olympiads using a similar product (Lloyd, 1992).

    It's not like it's a "tramp stamp," (is that still a thing?), but some on social media are not warming up to Ariel Winter's new butt tattoo. It's less of where the new ink is located on Ariel -- like the "Modern Family" star's other tattoos -- than what the meaning signifies. Ariel Winter, 19, gave fans on Snapchat an eyeful on Sunday when she uploaded a partial image of her butt that revealed another tattoo. In the pantless picture, Ariel (we assume it's her; her face isn't shown in the snap) lies on her side and reveals a short inscription. " 'Love risks everything and asks for nothing,'" Winter captioned the grainy image.…

    Due to a preference of a dominant limb over a non-dominant limb, motor units become exposed to unequal conditions that demand different amounts of strength and fatigue resistance. Research led by Adam, De Luca, and Erim (1998) suggests that this manual asymmetry was shown to alter the physiological and mechanical properties of muscle. The dominant hand’s motor units had a lower average firing rate and lower recruitment threshold that coincides to the dominant hand having a higher percentage of slower twitch fibers that allow force buildup and twitch fusion to occur at lower firing rates. Preference of a muscle overtime may cause adaptations in the fiber composition of a muscle due to neural stimulation, hormone signals, availability of substrates,…
