Recommended: Introduction health assessment

According to the data collected compared to the standards set on www.exrx.net my average health is poor to average. My Muscular Endurance is average at 24 Curl Ups, frankly, this was disappointing knowing in high school I was able to do 80 Curl Ups during testing. During the Cardiovascular Endurance test in 12 minutes, I ran/walked 1500 meters. Which was a score of 0 and a poor rating, this is not surprising as I have asthma, and this year pulled multiple muscles during track and was unable to work out for months causing me to lose my endurance. In Flexibility, I had an excellent rating and was well over the population average with my score of 25. I did dance up until my senior year of high school which explains my flexibility. During high school, I helped teach my women 's weightlifting class so under Muscular Strength I was surprised to have a poor rating with 21 pushups. I would like to point out I did ‘men’ pushups with my knees off the ground, so I wish there was a way to somehow convert ‘men’ pushups in the exrx to ‘female’ pushups. Finally, my BMI was 24.2 which falls under the Healthy Classification, I am not surprised as I am very fit for my age especially as I was a varsity athlete in high school. …show more content…

During this term and further this year my goals are to achieve a good/average rating in the areas I am lacking; Cardiovascular Endurance, Muscular Strength, even improving my curl ups, and furthering my skills already at the appropriate

The increase in drills a multi-sport athlete adds to their training regimen increases the chances that an injury is likely to occur due to the constant use of various bones, muscles, and tendons. Joel Brenner in his article Overuse Injuries, Over-training, and Burnout in Child and Adolescent Athletes stated, “The growing bones of the young athlete cannot handle as much stress as the mature bones of adults.” With many sports including football, swimming, lacrosse, baseball, and various other sports that constantly use the arms and upper body it is extremely important that you pay attention and to the best of your ability replicate proper technique.

Narrative Essay On Weightlifting

As a student, I always find myself stressed about things like homework, tests, due dates, grades, rent, and all other sorts of college-related problems.

Fantastic Fitness Argumentative Essay

1641 Words | 7 Pages

Fantastic Fitness is a place of “public accommodation” whose services are generally open to the public. Fantastic Fitness is demanding an exemption from the law because women have expressed a religious and private desire to exercise in a private room separate from men. Additionally, Fantastic Fitness has a policy of restricting special fitness equipment to men over the age of twenty-five so that “. . . no one is injured using the special equipment.” A three-tiered analysis will be applied to examine whether the law (1) is generally valid to businesses open to the public, (2) if the law is a legitimate use of Columbia County’s police powers, and (3) if Columbia County is obligated to exempt Fantastic Fitness from the law based on age, sex, privacy, and religious grounds.
