Lecture Extra Credit

Due to my lab time I arrived at the lecture around 4:30.

When I arrived she began to compare results of neuromuscular control before and after their intervention. The results lead them to the promotion of preventive trains programs.

Another key piece is to maintain a support plan. This method is known as the dissemination and implantation system. To end the lecture DiStefano took questions from the crowd. In my opinion, the most interesting question focused on ACL injuries. A professor described how we two year old kid always likes to jump from crazy places and try to land as “funny” as possible. Her question was why don’t we ever hear of young children tearing their ACLs. DiStefano explained that due to their age, their tissues are a lot more resistant. DiStefano ended the lecture by emphasizing that it is crucial for children to get exposure to different types of sports and physical activity. Overall, I enjoyed the lecture and found it interesting and

“In the U.S., about 30 million children and teens participate in some form of organized sports, and more than 3.5 million injuries each year” claims Stanford Children’s Health. It’s definitely true that competitive sports can cause all sorts of injuries from big to small. The media teaches people simply that sports leads to horrific injuries and can cause stress, but what the mainstream media hardly discusses are the great benefits of competitive sports.
