Making a video for marketing project can be difficult: getting students to participate, having a crystal clear concept to make an effective ad etc. Last year, I took a marketing management course where our teacher assigned the students a class project; the class project was about making a presentation and ad, coming up with our own brand name and packaging. Since it was a mega project for the whole class, it was difficult for everyone to even where to start from. Our teacher did give some hints…

According to literature, older adults commonly experience decrease in memory storage. Along with that, unfortunately, they become more vulnerable victims to crime, which means they more than likely to have to provide testimony for investigation process. The current study intended to examine whether older adult have higher tendency to use their prior knowledge than younger adult and how it actually affect the accuracy and confidence of the recall result. The study employed mixed factorial design…

High-Intensity Interval Training High-Intensity Interval Training (also known as HIIT) is a specialized form of interval training that involves short intervals of maximum intensity exercise separated by longer intervals of low to moderate intensity exercise (High Intensity Interval Training). A recent study compared participants who did steady-state cardio for 30 minutes three times a week to those who did 20 minutes HIIT three times per week. The result is astonishing. The HIIT group showed a…

High intensity interval training (HIIT) has become incredibly prevalent in the fitness industry over the past few years. There are many gyms around the country that only focus on high intensity interval training work outs, and many of the ones who don’t focus solely on high intensity interval training, offer classes. One of the major draws to high intensity interval training is that, it is said, there is fat burn from twenty-four to seventy-two hours after the shorter workout is completed. Which…

any equipment, Anderson has completed a full-body workout in about 20 minutes. Anderson, a BYU elementary education student from Perrysburg, Ohio, used to spend an hour doing cardio at the gym, but for the last two months, she’s done high-intensity interval training (HIIT) at her house instead. “I love feeling like a boss after only working out for 20 minutes,” Anderson said in an email. Although the workouts are relatively short, she said they feel longer because of the intensity. THEME:…

Oftentimes people find themselves saying twenty-four hours in a day is just not enough to workout, not with words, but definitely with their actions. Being consistent with exercise is the hardest part to overcome when juggling family, friends, school, and work. So finding equilibrium between all of these things is very important to reach. Which is why having a step by step plan is vital to achieving a lifelong routine that will give one a healthy lifestyle. The main facets of steps to creating a…

It's that time of year again. Those lazy summer days are coming to an end and the kids (and teachers) have to go back to school. Not only that, but it's the time of year where people realize, "Oh wow... I guess I didn't get much exercise lounging around on the couch all day watching daytime television. Well, this extra five pounds isn't too noticeable, right?" Of course, once the kids are back in school and a normal routine is established once again, we begin to realize... we need to go back to…

According to the Journal of Physiology, high-intensity interval training describes physical exercise that represent brief, intermittent bursts of vigorous activity, integrated by periods of rest (Gibala et al., 2012). The effectiveness of high-intensity training on the cardiovascular and muscular skeletal system is not in question, as it’s been proven in numerous studies the impact HIIT has on the cardiovascular system, psychological health, and physiological changes. Emberts, Porcari, Steffen,…

received placebo and the remaining 148 received hydroxyzine. Both treatment groups were similar with respect to demographic and baseline characteristics and among them nine subjects prematurely discontinued the study. The ECG data revealed a slight QT prolongation observed at two hours post hydroxyzine dose (at the time of peak plasma levels); however, the QTc analysis did not reveal an increased risk for clinically significant individual abnormalities. No clear treatment effect was seen on…

adverse reactions 1.1 Introduction (QT prolongation) The toxicity of antipsychotic drugs is considered a good example of specific gender differences in Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) in a dose-dependent manner [1]. This adverse effect is induced cardiac arrhythmia known as torsade de pointes (TdP) (delay of cardiac repolarization), are associated with the following drugs such as; chlorpromazine, mesoridazine, pimozide and thioridazone, which increase the risk of QT prolongation. It also has…
