Working out in the swimming pool is so effective because water provides natural resistance – as it is almost 800 times denser than air – so each movement that you make while submerged in water works your…

Studies have shown that physical activity can help improve memory as one grows older. However, does physical activity also help one memorise a list of items for an exam or paper? My aim is to test whether memory can be improved by doing physical activity.

My family celebrates by eating, so every time we have a family…

My observation for my Internal Assessment was performed at the Green Lake High School Workout Center after school Thursday February 4th. I was looking at the difference between men and women and what they do when working out. I sat at the desk right by the entrance door where I could see what everyone was doing. Before my observation, I had a few predictions on what I would observe. I thought that men would use a lot more weight machines and women would do a lot more cardio and abdominal…

For this project, the first thing that my group and I did was research what needed to be known, such as: running techniques, diet plans, recommended stretches, appropriate running attire, and how velocity and acceleration help the runner in seeing how they can improve. After we gathered all of our research, we documented it and filed it until it was needed. The next step was the running. Materials needed for this portion are a stopwatch, a meter stick, calculator, and appropriate running gear.…
