1. Cite an article relating to your study using APA format (it can be the article your group used or a different one). How does the techniques used in this article relate to the techniques used in your group project? (1-2 paragraphs) The techniques used in this article focused on the same squats (front and back) as we did. Just as we found, this study concluded that the back squat resulted in higher compressive forces than the front squats. This study as well as our group project, both used the bar, to assist in the squats. This study also used males and females. However, these individuals were experienced at performing front and back squats, which was different from our project. The same muscle groups were measured as ours (rectus fermoris and bicep fermoris). The particiapnts were given a five-minute rest period between each set. We provided a one- minute rest period between the squats (front and back). For five seconds the subject would maximally contract the knee extensors against manual resistance for 5 seconds, which is the same way we measured MVC. The participants would also be shaved when necessary for placement, which was something that we did not do (Gullett, J. C., Tillman, M. D., Gutierrez, G. M., …show more content…

The directions from the SENIAM link, was very helpful and it was great assistance in the placement. The SENIAM was very specific with pictures, which made it a lot easier to find the muscles (rectus and biceps femoris). Also, using the tape measure to make sure that the electrodes where in the correct places, also made placement easier. As I practiced with taking the sticky plastic off of the electrode, I began to feel a lot more comfortable with taking those off, to place the electrode in the desired location. In the beginning pulling the sticky paper off, was a bit of a challenge. However, it became more easier, which made me more

I started to learn to create two citations between MLA “Work Cited” bibliography and one APA “References” Bibliography in Library class once a week. I am excited to learn about the citing sources as I did research other classes. I always made mistakes when I did a research paper and I had no idea how to create MLA style, and what was different between MLA format and APA format. The teacher taught me how to write in a paper format and use a Noodle Tools in a computer system.

This paper will share my response to the questions about APA formatting. According to the Jones & Hurley, (2012) the main parts of an APA formated paper are the Title page, the abstract page, the main body of the paper, and the reference.

The approach group 8 undertook was going about and splitting up the various components that led up to the corporation's business structure and value creation, by researching and writing about that specific topic and then coming together to make it flow as a single research report.

Our group also, forgot various components required for the APA format including, a table of contents, inputting in-text citations, having proper introduction and

You would no doubt hand out citations as a rookie police officer, however, as a graduate student writing papers, you don’t want your APA citations to reveal your rookie nature. I do welcome the validation from Schwartz, Landrum, & Gurung (2017) that APA style can have many challenges, and rookie mistakes do happen. For someone that has had no background with writing APA style, the easy manner in which to read An Easyguide to APA Style is appreciated. I only wish I had a photographic memory that could easily refer to all the rules that I’ve read. Since a photographic memory is not part of my brain structure, it’s best for me to remember that I am here to learn and as I tell my own children-to practice hard and try my very best.

The ankle and knee joint angle and moments of 5 steps on the affected side will be taken to get the average in each spring level in each and every participant. The mechanical property of the AFO in each spring level will be calculated by the custom device (Gao et al., 2011). The AFO moment will be standardized to body mass (Nm/kg) in each participant. The plantarflexion resistance moment and the plantarflexion angles will be defined as negative.

Ironically though, the most commonly practiced bicep curl isn’t always executed well. Often times, according to trainer John Romaniello, people swing their “barbell or dumbbells up and down with momentum, rather than isolating the bicep to drive the weight up and lower it down.” In fact, I’ve seen that exact phenomena happen at the gym with a few of my friends. It’s almost like watching a weird hip-hop music video, with their arms flailing about and their upper body lurched forward.
