Touch football is a physically demanding sport requiring the extensive use of many systems of the body. It is important for an athlete to properly train and develop these energy systems to perform to their highest potential. I have constructed a training program in order to develop upon my two weakest areas, muscular power and the combination of speed and agility. The average to poor results I received during fitness testing reflected my performance in the vertical jump test, 40m sprint, and the…

Geometry can be applied to a lot of professions. Physical therapy is just one of the professions that have geometry involved in their job. We all know that geometry would most likely deal with angles. So, in what particular activity does geometry help in being a physical therapist? Some of the physical therapy clinics are retraining runners when their technique causes injury and the main diagnosis always comes down to the geometry of a runner's stride. According to Moncivais (2015), “running is…

For the love of the sport, athletes often put their physical wellbeing at risk. While injuries are not always avoidable, professional and recreational athletes alike can stand to benefit from preventative maintenance. For example, Twin Pine Family Chiropractic in Fonda, New York, provides the vital sports injury treatment and preventative chiropractic care for every athlete. Sports injuries are rampant. Caused by everything from cross-country to volleyball, these injuries are often sparked by…

PART A (600 Words) Outline and explain the key subjective and objective findings that you would expect to observe when assessing a running athlete who presented with movement dysfunction There are many ways in which dysfunction can manifest in a running athlete. Running involves the coordination of upper and lower limbs, breathing, muscle strength and length, muscular control and lower limb proprioceptive input. Injuries that occur secondary to running can present differently (Crossley, 2016),…

could indicate that she has type two respiratory failure. The main aims when treating type two respiratory failure is directed at reversing the underlying cause. Non-invasive ventilation with a tight-fitting facial or nasal mask with low levels of oxygen therapy often stabilizes these patients. When a patient is suffering from type two respiratory failure, the effectiveness of a peak flow would not affect the treatment given directly, especially when time critical, however, in none emergency…

Duchenne’s muscular dystrophy is a hereditary issue portrayed by dynamic muscle degeneration and shortcoming that happens more in males. It is one of nine sorts of solid dystrophy. DMD quality that can be acquired in families in an X-connected latent style, yet it frequently happens in individuals from families without a known family history of the condition. The quality is the second biggest quality to date, which encodes the muscle protein, dystrophin. Young men with Duchenne solid dystrophy…

In this experiment we are testing the different factors and how they affect the muscle performances. The different tests included the temperature and if it makes the Number of Fists you can make in thirty seconds a higher number of fists or lower number in different temperatures. Also tested was how the muscle fatigue affected the performance of the time holding a quarter in between a clamp. Muscle Fatigue is a tiring of the muscles. A muscle is a body tissue that can produce movement or a…

or many runners, cross training often doesn't come easy. The fact is, most runners enjoy running and quickly develop a steady pattern of doing just that. Unfortunately this habit means many are missing a fantastic opportunity to gain speed, endurance, stamina, and increase their VO2 max by implementing a steady cross training routine. Specificity of training is a term that refers to centering your training schedule around strengthening the muscles needed for that particular activity. Thus, a…

This evidence explained that the greater muscle mass involved in stronger person makes them to adapt with the time to failure. Next, Matkowski, Place, Martin, and Lepers (2011) further a study in comparing the different of unilateral and bilateral exercise on time to task failure and associated maximal voluntary contraction force performed on knee extensor muscle. The researcher found there is a significant different on time to task failure where the bilateral exercise were shorter as compared…

When you lift a heavy weight (be it yourself or a barbell), your muscles contract. That contraction begins when your nervous system sends a signal to your muscle fibers. When a movement is performed over and over again, and the muscle fibers repeatedly receive an identical signal, a more efficient neuromuscular motor pattern develops. The process by which neurons become more efficient is called myelination. Through regular practice of a movement, a fatty white substance forms a sheath around…
