EXSI 432/532: Research Methods in Exercise Science: Research Proposal Posters

This study looks at the effects that the rab and shave on the strength and mobility in the dominant rotator cuff of a collegiate pitcher. Collegiate pitchers should strengthen their rotator cuff muscles in order to prevent injuries. Injuries to the rotatorcuff could be season-ending and require surgery for repair. In order to prevent a pitchers chances of getting surgery, they need to find away to strengthen those muscles and make them more mobile. Therabands are a great way to increase strength and mobility in the rotator cuff.

Food tracking has become an increasingly more popular method for individuals seeking to make changes in their dietary habits. According to Skinner et al., food tracking has proven its credibility,as individuals seem much more likely to initiate positive dietary changes when they are recording their daily food intake. Having said this, further knowledge is needed to allow individuals to make significant positive dietary changes. Specifically among at risk populations such as female college athletes. According to Skinner et al. increases in nutrition knowledge may result in significantly more desirable attitudes toward nutrition among female athletes (Skinner et al.,2001).

Dry Needling And Hamstring Strains In Collegiate Baseball Players, Christ Clary

EXSI 432/532: Research Methods in Exercise Science: Research Proposal Posters

Hamstring strain injuries (HSIs) are extremely prevalent injuries in the collegiate baseball setting. HSIs require plentiful rest and rehabilitation to regain the normal functions of the injured leg meaning athletes will not be able to participate in competition. Time loss from sport has negative effects on the injured athlete and their team. For these reasons, it is important that athletes receive the best possible treatment to get them back on the field as quickly and safely as possible. Eccentric strength training has been shown to be the most effective rehabilitation and injury prevention measure for HSIs. Eccentric training is often …

The Effects Of Carrying Loads On Lower Extremities Within Military Personnel, Austin Billiot

EXSI 432/532: Research Methods in Exercise Science: Research Proposal Posters

Carrying loads is essentially learned through nurture and the environment you live in. Humans at one point in their lives utilize this method of carrying loads to achieve a specific task. Military service personnel make use of this method quite often in their daily work environment. Military personnel are accustomed with being injured and the recovery process which follows. All studies reviewed, revealed that there is a correlation between lower extremity problems and load carrying force. This research was done on military service members to find the exact motion that load becomes an issue for basic movement (walking, jogging, and …
