4.0 Tests The purpose of a shuttle run agility test is testing my speed and agility. This is very relevant to my program as it will show whether I have improved and by how much. VO2 Max is very important in touch. It measures the amount of oxygen your body is able to consume. My VO2 Max is pretty average and although it does improve, it doesn’t mean I can run faster because it is how efficiently my body can put that to use. According to the American Medical Student Association (2012) it is good that my intake of oxygen has increased as there is a potential for me to put it to better use, enabling me to run faster. The resting heart rate in the post has moved from above average for a female my age into the good category. The same can be said for the sprint fatigue test, originally in the pre I was average but by the time I did my post testing, I had just gotten into the range for the good rating. 4.1 Limitations …show more content…

By looking at my test results in appendices 5, 6 and 7, I can see that in both agility and speed programs I have improved, despite any limitations I might have occurred. To achieve the aim of the program I believed I did enough tests in order to formulate a report of statistics showing my progress. However, I could have done more tests on agility as it is a difficult fitness component to measure because there are many different tests that show various indications on my agility levels. Overall I thought the tests that I did do, specifically reflected on my fitness components of agility and

Maximilien Robespierre, the head of the Jacobin Club of Paris should not be spared a harsh judgment considering his involvement with the thousands of executions during the Reign of Terror. Robespierre and his Committee of Public Safety attempted to create a “The Republic of Virtue,” which is arguably an impossible task without entirely rebuilding the political systems of France, as one cannot declare another to be virtuous. Rather, creating a virtuous society requires an overturn of the entire system. Although Robespierre’s intentions in forming a “Republic of Virtue” may be admirable, such as the desire to form a republic based on Rousseau’s ideas of reason and natural law, the way in which he enforced his beliefs was immoral.

Four factorial ANOVA’s were performed examining the relationship between superhumanization score, target race, and how these factors influence the estimations of height and weight for each of Thomas and Timothy All four ANOVA’s failed to produce significant results. With that being said, four additional factorial ANOVA’s were performed examining the relationship between target race and the estimations of weight and height for both Thomas and Timothy. The relationship between target race and the height estimations of Timothy was significant, F (1, 122) = 25.03, p < .05, MSE = 5.7, η2 = .17. Similarly, the relationship between target race and Thomas’s height estimations was significant, F (1, 121) = 28.71, p < .05, MSE = 4.2, η2= .19. The relationship between target race and Thomas’s weight estimations was significant, Thomas Weight, F (1, 122)

I have now taken the Strengths Finder 2.0 assessment for the second time, and I am fascinated with the results. Not only for the differences that exist between the two assessments, but for also my most recent results. I first took the assessment in the Spring 2014 semester, about a year and a half ago, and in that time I have had an immense amount of personal growth. Therefore, I was very curious if my results would reflect the same. Not only did it reflect different strengths, but I believe that the results are more accurate than the prior assessment.

Ultimately improving physiological aspects and VO2max. Intensities reaching maximal VO2max are necessary to improve VO2max in professional athletes. While moderately trained athletes experience improvements upon reaching 70% to 80%. In conclusion, the intensity threshold varies with the individuals’ level. There are some studies which suggest reaching an intensity threshold may cause changes in HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure, glucose intolerance and insulin resistance.

Speeding up At the beginning of the cross country season I hated cross country absolutely hated it, I would walk down the hallway of saline middle school look at all of the pictures on the wall and saw some of kids running and thought why is My mom doing this to me? I thought I was a terrible at it, I would run like a 9 or 10 minute mile. So when the school year came along I dreaded the end of the day I would look at the clock and think a tiny bit longer, please just a wee longer (and that is very very rare.) When the season began I had a lot of trouble, whether it was keeping up or if it was breathing problems, and My friend Zaske (who was and still is much faster than me) was nice enough that instead of going up with all the faster kids he stayed back with me, but even when he was going his slowest I still had trouble keeping up he would try to encourage me by saying “come on Michael just a little faster,” and I would respond with “i'm…
