Anatomical and Physiological aspects of my PPP
The four ’S’ components and how they are involved in my activity of a
football pass:
1. Speed – speed is basically how fast you can move part of your
body or the whole of your body, and is measured in metres per
second. Speed is an important factor in all explosive sports and
activities that require sudden changes in pace (remember that
power is work performed per unit of time). How fast you are
depends on the percentage of fast glycolytic fibres in particular
muscle groups as these fibres receive stimuli quicker and release
energy anaerobically. You need fast reactions to be able to
respond to the right cue and also need to be able to select the
necessary motor units. Increased speed doesn’t always result in
improved performance if you go to quickly and make mistakes. With
relation a football pass at first speed doesn’t appear to be to
important but when the pass is added to a game situation and you
are under pressure the speed of your decisions and speed of pass
will determine if you get tackled or not.
2. Strength – this can be further subdivided into; Dynamic strength
and Endurance strength. Dynamic strength; the ability of the
neuromuscular system to overcome resistance with a high speed of
contraction is the dynamic strength. This aspect of strength is
more appropriate to sport than to general high-related fitness.
Dynamic strength is essential for any activities involving
sprinting, throwing, jumping or hitting and an athlete needs a
high percentage of fast glycolytic muscle fibres to perform well.
Introduction BiPAP is a form of noninvasive mechanical ventilation used in patients with acute respiratory failure. Many of these patients go on noninvasive ventilation due to COPD exacerbations that are infectious, with congestive heart failure, and ventilator parameters based on their clinical assessment and changes in arterial blood gases. Two different studies were conducted on COPD patients, using a BiPAP machine to improve exacerbations and their activities of daily living. There are many positive outcomes for using these noninvasive ventilators, however when used incorrectly, negative outcomes or no changes at all are always possible. Positive Use for COPD Exacerbations
As we have learned through our reading, most all bodies skeletal muscles are made up of primarily three types of skeletal muscle fibers, but their proportion differs depending on what action the muscles is doing. For example, type I fibers such as muscles of the neck, back, and leg have a higher proportion. According to Quinn (2014), type I muscles are slower and more effective, they tend fire a lot slower than fast twitch fibers and they fatigue at a much slower rate. Hence, slower twitch fibers are pronounced at helping athletes run marathons and bicycle for hours. Shoulder and arm muscles are not always active but are intermittent in their use; these muscles tend to have a larger amount of tension for uses in throwing and lifting. These muscles have a combination of both type I and type II B fibers. These fast twitch fibers use anaerobic metabolism to create energy and are the "classic" fast twitch muscle fibers that excel at producing quick, powerful bursts of speed. These muscles are used in events such as 100m sprint, basketball, soccer and football. Since this muscle fiber fires at such a high rate of contraction it will fatigue much faster and will not last long before needing to rest.
According to Steen and Marchant (2007), 60-70% of women will require sutures after vaginal delivery. A common morbidity of lacerations in the perineum is acute pain (Steen et al., 2007). Indeed, many women who have had birth related lacerations have decreased mobility, difficulty sitting comfortably, or fear of defecation due to pain (Steen et al. 2007). Furthermore, this pain may impede a mother from breastfeeding, focusing on newborn care and can lead to increasing irritability (Steen et al., 2007).
Slide 13- speed is the ability of the muscles to contract with speed this will create a fast motion. Speed is required in Touch because quick reactions with passing and rucking will help the team gain ground and make their way closer to the try line, for a touchdown. I performed the 35m sprint test in 6sec.19 which puts me in below average for speed.
Selecting to publish my manuscript with the American Journal of Nursing best fit my project on rotating peripheral IV’s when only clinically indicated. The American Journal of Nursing target multidisciplinary in healthcare. It is the most used journal for healthcare professionals and covers clinical evidence-based practices. My project proposal would be of interest to healthcare professionals of all nursing specialties because it will improve patient quality care and nursing workflow.
Nurse practitioner should be able to recognize these descriptors and take them as potential indicators of pain and clarify with further questioning.

Psychology is the scientific study of how people behave, think and feel. Psychologists study a broad ranging discipline which incorporates both the scientific study of human behaviour as well as its biological, cognitive, and social bases, along with the systematic application of this knowledge applied to specific problems (McLeod, 2011). However, as for sports psychology, this can be defined as an interdisciplinary science that draws on knowledge from many related fields such as biomechanics, physiology, kinesiology and psychology. Furthermore, it involves the study of how psychological factors can affect an individual’s performance, alongside how participation in both exercise and sport can affect psychological and physical factors (Amezdroz, 2010).
My life has been a fight ever since I was born, one of the most significant battles of my life happened when I was not even a month old and has stuck with me for the past 17 years of my life and is a motivator to my desire to succeed. September 6, 2000, I was born into this world the 2nd child of Maria and Percy Vela, one typical day there baby boy just like any other newborn, healthy weight and size; but unexpectedly the baby became unordinary. This family went from having a healthy beautiful baby boy to a sick infant who wouldn’t digest anything, and he couldn’t be fed and vomited frequently, a horrible nightmare for my parents. My parents immediately took me to the hospital in Stamford Connecticut, and the doctors diagnosed me with Pyloric
In order to improve the sporting performance of a 100-meter sprinter and a touch football player, the athletes must train in specific ways. There are some similarities and some differences between the types of training and training methods that each athlete must take part in in order to improve their performance. Both athletes require strength, flexibility, aerobic and anaerobic training in order to improve their performance, though the method and quantity of these training types must vary in relation to the requirements of either sprinting or touch football.
There are several reasons that could be causing TJ epigastric pain. According to Kerkar (2016), epigastric pain usually occur immediately after eating a meal or when lying down after food consumption. It can be associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) which causes pain and inflammation as a result of food content backing up towards the esophagus from the stomach. Other medical conditions associated with epigastric pain include gastritis, pancreatitis, peptic ulcer disease (PUD), hiatal hernia, liver function, duodenal ulcers, gallstones, gastroenteritis, or carcinoma of the stomach. In rare cases, epigastric pain may be caused by cardiac abnormality (Kerkar, 2016).
The purpose of this assignment is to provide an appropriate fitness assessment for a rugby union player. An effective fitness assessment should provide essential information regarding players’ match fitness and reveal what fitness programs need prescribing. In order for a test to be effective it must reflect the specific demands of the sport. Each test was chosen due to its specificity in relation to the demands of rugby union competition. An understanding of the client will be made clear through a PAR-Q which will provide the relative information for both personal and medical.
Technique analysis’ are useful in aiding coaches improve athletes performance by linking their performance skills with biomechanical principles. One form of technique analysis is quantitative analysis. The advantage of quantitative analysis based on scientific principles is that it can be applied to various settings such as instructional and clinical (Lees, 2002).
In general, Functional Movement Screens have become a part of pre-participation exams for many collegiate and professional sports to identify athletes at risk of injury (Schneiders et al., 2011). Athletes need muscle strength, flexibility, and proprioception to perform the complex movements that they do on the field (Kiesel, Plisky, & Voight, 2007; Cook, Burton, & Hoogenboom, 2006). The Functional Movement Screens “take into account all of these movements using a score that can determine if an athlete is more at risk of injury compared to other athletes” (Teyhen et al, 2012; Cook, Burton, & Hoogenboom, 2006). Certain fitness tests are used by several evaluation agencies, such as the National Football League, to determine the value of an athlete
