Project Task #1 My research topic is about the correlation between punk music and rap. Music has always reflected its generation and what was going in that era. Punk music and rap are two totally different genres and cultures. Despite the difference in sound, they face the same socioeconomic issues. Both Punk, and Rap are products of low income areas. What I’m gonna be talking about is how and why the same things affect both subcultures. Both are viewed negatively, but…

Strength and conditioning coaches (SCC) have strived to find exercises that transfer to aid the development of specific sports skills. These exercises come in many forms, from resistance to body weight or from more technical based Olympic style weightlifting exercises, such as the clean and jerk, with the aim being to benefit the athlete with transferable capabilities that improve the sport specific skill (Hori et al., 2008; Behm, 1985). For the coach to design an effective training plan, how an…

Within a span of two centuries, new, diverse themes were emerging through Roman artistic styles and techniques. By 450 B.C.E, utilizing contrapposto and the perception of movement in art was vastly gaining popularity over earlier artistic styles of stiff, rigid statues. As motion became prominent artwork, new artistic subjects were expressed through distinct illustrations of movement. Specifically, artwork such as Diskobolos and the Sleeping Satyr deviated from the artistic norms of previous…

family leaves the other selection of the family weak. The family is like a living organism, which has a head, body, arms, legs, and so on. When the head of the body directs the rest of the body to move the rest of the body usual responds accordingly. But what happens when the head tells its left leg to move forward but the leg chooses to go backwards? Or what is the right leg decides it would rather jump than walk? The head of the body will not be feeling too good if the rest of the body refused…

my true passion of sprinting returned. With the leap I crossed not only my first hurdle, but also my last mental barrier. My form was far from perfect, but I have conquered my bane. Finishing the race was the last feat. Every stride, I stretched my legs wildly to make up the disadvantage. Every step I swung my arms, cheek to cheek, trying to accelerate even a tenth of a mile per hour. Inch by inch I closed up the gap. As I leaned into the finish line, panting, the coach approached me. “Second…

The rear leg will extend first, as the body is still moving forward over this leg at takeoff. This leg will also reach full extension prior to the other leg, this means that it will contribute more force to the jump than the other as the bioanalysis will show. As well as the legs extending and muscles and joints flexing the torso will also extent to maximize the force able to be produced by the…

Ice Breaker Exercise In the first round of the exercise, I felt more comfortable being part of the triangle with people that I knew. It felt awkward at first when I tried to do the triangle with other people that I did not know, but then I realized that that was the main idea of the exercise. Towards the end of the first round, we all were surrounded by somebody else; there was not such a big of a space between us. I felt that we needed to work with each other in order to form the triangle. In…
