gastrocnemius is located between the knee and ankle joint (Virginia 2013). This can be cause by direct trauma to the calf region or sudden landing on the foot (Medial Head Gastrocnemius 2006). This injury is common in tennis players due to the constant motions of jumping and lunging (Medial Head Gastrocnemius 2006). In the first degree of gastrocnemius tear, the individual will experiment pain but the tendon will not be lengthened (Medial Head Gastrocnemius 2006). In the second degree, there is…

Five components of a well-rounded physical activity/exercise program are muscular strength, muscular endurance, cardiovascular endurance, flexibility, and body composition. Each component has specific FITT principles: Frequency – how often?, Intensity – How hard of what level, Time (Duration), and Type. For cardiovascular endurance, the ACSM-FITT recommendations are: type – large muscle groups/rhythmic/continuous, intensity – 60-90% of maximum heart rate (MHR), time – 20-60 minutes for each bout…

grip strength or range of motion. In a way, they act as an extension of one’s own arm. The purpose of a reacher is to benefit people who have disabilities and increase independence and improve their quality of life. Reachers allow people to access items that are just out of grasp, whether it be above or below. This group of devices has low-tech options that accommodate a simple lack of range of motion such as arthritis and high-tech options that assist those with little to no motion such as a…

pain, muscle aches/cramps/weakness, dizziness or light headedness, frequent headaches, memory loss, poor balance, tingling, depression, excessive thirst, heat/cold intolerance, frequent urination and urinary urgency. On examination of the wrist, range of motion is restricted with palmar flexion, dorsiflexion, ulnar deviation, radial deviation, supination and pronation. Movements are painful with dorsiflexion, ulnar deviation, radial deviation, supination and pronation. There is tenderness to…

Specifically, it appears that MT patients demonstrate greater improvement on Fugl-Meyer non-motor subscales (surface sensibility, proprioception, joint pain during passive movement, range of motion) and the Action Research Arm Test. Overall these results support the researcher’s hypothesis that MT would be an effective treatment to support recovery from hemiparesis post ischemic stroke. However, researchers did not specifically hypothesize…

but see it in motion. I see the walls of its glass cage expand into a murky kelp forest that masks its constant forward motion, just as Terry Tempest Williams mentions in her essay “A Shark in the Mind of One Contemplating Wilderness.” Though Williams addresses a broad range of issues in her work, this essay can be summarized quite easily: in order for us as humans to understand and appreciate something, we have to kill it—or pause it—to do so. “Even in death, I see this shark in motion.”…
