I want to do something totally different than that. I want to be an actual Athletic Trainer who is on the sidelines of football and soccer games, or an other sport that needs one. I want to be the person to tend to injured players, diagnose an injury, wrap ankles, etc. I want to help athletes because I love sports. There are five different specific employers of Athletic Trainers such as high school and college sports teams, professional sports teams, clinics or small practices, and hospitals

For an example, when hurt during a game of soccer, players could easily recover from those injuries compared to the injuries given to us in life, such as a broken heart. In soccer, there is always a definite winner and loser, while in life the lines of winning and losing are defined. In a game of soccer, you can severly injure yourself you can be out for the
A lot of people debate, argue and even fight about whether or not one should take risks in life. As for me, I think there can’t be only one answer or solution to this question, for there are different types of risks and consequences that person might pay for. Health, money, job, opportunity and a lot more including even someone’s life, might all be associated with risks. My friend goes to Thunder Valley Casino and spends up to two thousand dollars every month. One’s success in life can depend on
Effectiveness in Rehabilitation Recently, many studies have proven that the psychological aspect of rehabilitation does determine the duration of the injury. If a patient believes that the exercises given to repair the injury work, then the time of healing will be much shorter, but if someone believes that rehabilitation is ineffective, their injuries will be prolonged. Many people tend to stray away from the psychological methods of rehabilitation because they believe using different techniques

Injury Interview The athlete plays softball, and she plays short stop. She is eighteen years old. She has had no previous injuries. The injury that she sustained was an ACL tear, and she tore both the medial and lateral meniscus. She was injured while playing in a softball tournament.

The second baseman was actually all the way over the safety base, and when the

The use of a seat belt may not save you from bodily injuries but it certainly can keep your body in place preventing you from being ejected out of a vehicle that has come to a halt.

usually work out all year, both during the season and in the off season in order to be able to start for their team. They must be able to perform their jobs at the highest level at all times. Professional athletes also face the constant threat of injuries that could potentially end their careers. For these and other reasons, this kind of job can be quite stressful. During the season, athletes often practice more than 50 hours a week. They may have other duties related to the team as well for instance
Personal Narrative- Shoulder Injury I felt it pop, and pain engulfed my shoulder like ants cover an anthill that has been stirred with a stick. It made me angry, but it didn't help things to get mad. There was nothing I could do but try to recover in time to start over. Giving up wasn't an option. My junior year in high school, I went out for basketball. I liked it for a while, but when games started I was on JV. It was okay, but I was only getting to play two minutes per game. This didn't
Personal Narrative- Soccer Injury I went into my junior spring soccer season kind of sad, my past coach, wasn't going to be our team coach this year. I wasn't really depressed though, because I had tons of friends that were playing this year. One of the great things about soccer is that it is not a school-sanctioned sport. To me this said that I was able to play another season of soccer with my friends from Paonia and Hotchkiss without the normal High School rivalry between these schools. Year

Growing up an athlete, I was used to the bruises, strained muscles, and achy joints. Ten years of competitive gymnastics took a toll on my body, both physically and mentally. Gymnastics was an intense sport revolving around being perfect. Our coaches taught us to strive for and attain perfection, which in turn became a gift and a curse. This need to be perfect was a gift in that it drove me, and continues to drive me, to achieve at a high level and pursue my goals. The downside, however, was that
most cases, that is true. Most people think the problem may be an injury that has to be rehabilitated or an extreme mental problem where the person needs serious help.

Three types of therapy that help a wide range of people with their problems are physical, occupational, and speech therapies.
