Lower extremity joint pain is a leading cause of disability and immobility in the United States. Movement is Life seeks to educate and empower patients to break the cycle that immobility starts in efforts to improve musculoskeletal and overall emotional and physical wellbeing.

2023 Symposium
High self-confidence is crucial in social, work, and academic settings. Previous research suggests that individuals with greater confidence tend to be healthier and happier. (ŞAHİN et al., 2016).
PURPOSE: To investigate whether exercise intervention (resistance training (RT), aerobic training (AT), no exercise (NE)) could increase perceived confidence levels before an academic test. It was hypothesized that participants who exercised before the test would have higher perceived confidence levels compared to those who did not.
METHODS: Eastern Washington University students (n=18, 12 males), between the ages of 18-40 were recruited. Participants were randomized into one of the interventions (AT, RT, NE). …

Rowan-Virtua Research Day
COVID-19 disease was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization in March 2020. This was a critical time in our country because obesity has been a national epidemic in the United States. Because of the dire effects of obesity and the well-known health benefits from physical activity, it is important for us to understand the effects of the pandemic on physical activity in family medicine patients. The overall hypothesis is that the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the family medicine patients from maintaining physical activity as compared to pre-pandemic times. Outpatients were recruited in person in the examination rooms …

Epsilon Sigma at-Large Research Conference
Obesity is a major risk factor for many health problems, including cardiovascular disease and diabetes. It is anticipated that the prevalence of obesity in the United States will grow as time passes. The objective of this study is to compare the health of obese women who engage in regular exercise to that of nonobese women. This literature review is drawn from eight library-based research articles at East Tennessee State University (ETSU). The search engine covers topics such as obesity, postmenopausal women, physical activity, nutrition, health, fitness, and lifestyle. Taking nutritional supplements and increased physical exercise minimizes the likelihood of health …
