The behavior change I chose to implement for fourteen days was daily exercise. In high school, I was very good at running for long periods of time. I could run 2 miles in under 16 minutes and not have to take walking breaks during my running period. Most importantly, I used to work out everyday and tried to better myself. I got a concussion from cheerleading at the of 2015 and I took a break from sports and running because of my injury. Ever since then, I haven’t been able to run like I could…

So I now keep motivated and exercise for looks and the benefit of my health. Two years ago when I was just starting to do my own small workouts, I noticed that training your body hard pays off, but the pain and soreness just seems to never leave.

I’ve always drove pass buildings that offer yoga and I’ve always wanted to try it out. I’m glad that Yoga covers the art class that is required to graduate because this makes it a win-win situation for me. I have learned many things within this class.

I am able to concentrate on myself, and learn about myself instead…

To prevent future reinjury physical therapists will recommend an exercise program to stretch and strengthen the muscles around your ankle and knee to help prevent reinjury to your calf. That exercise program includes strength and flexibility exercises for the calf (e.g. Calf raises). Electromyography (EMG) is the process of using an electromyograph machine to produce a record called an electromyogram. An EMG…

lengthening activities which prevent muscle tearing. And strengthening exercise will be held as follows; isometric, isotonic active exercise, including eccentric, concentric then to intrinsic/extrinsic hand muscle then to isokinetic exercise with the gradual gaining of the strength of the affected arm. To modulate swelling and pain, transcutaneous electronic nerve stimulation (TENS) will be given to the client before each exercise session and to stimulate muscle activities from hypotonicity…
