...sports. The Romeao family have a further 4 children, two girls, Angel and Isis and two boys, Achilles and a baby, Caesar. Good intro. Nice signposting Discussion I feel the Father, Tony, has determined that some of his children will be given what he feels is a strong supportive and motivating climate to influence them to compete at an elite level in a chosen sport. His reasons for this seem, on the surface, quite selfish. He desires to be the father of an Olympic champion and he thinks if his son becomes a boxing world champion there will be enough money for all of the family to live on. For Venus, that sport is gymnastics where Tony wants Venus to achieve Olympic status. For Romeo, the sport is boxing where Tony wants Romeo to achieve a high profile career leading to a world championship. Yes. Mainly for financial reward it seems. We can draw upon Eccles research concept of...

...Pee-wee sports leagues are very popular in our society. Growing up, I have noticed that it has always been popular for parents to sign their kids up to participate in sports like soccer, dance, tee ball, and gymnastics at a very young age. Children appear to enjoy their participation since they get to make new friends and learn how to play a new game. However, around the time a kid exits the childhood phase of life and enters the early adolescence phase (at approximately 11 years) participation in sport decreases dramatically, especially in female adolescents. In a statistical overview of sport and recreation participation by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (2012), it was found that female participation rates dropped by 9.7% between...

...Debate Paper Outline 4/19/2015 Brenda Crowe XBCOM/275 Tiffany Bostic Is Cheerleading a Sport? Along with cheering on the sidelines at games, most cheerleading squads participate in heated competitions to show their athleticism. “Although the athleticism of cheerleaders has risen dramatically since Johnny Campbell led the first cheers at a University of Minnesota football game in 1898, what hasn't changed is the primary focus of school cheerleading: to promote school spirit, support other teams in competition and provide leadership within the school and community. Because of the highly athletic nature of modern cheerleading, annual competitions were created to showcase these athletes on their own and away from the sidelines, and the sport-or-not debate began”. (espnW.com, 2014). I. Pro’s A. Cheerleaders are athletes B. College cheerleading was as physically demanding and mentally challenging as any activity. C. Dictionary.com defines a sport as "an athletic activity that requires physical prowess or skill and often a competitive nature." Cheerleading definitely fulfills this criteria. II. Cons A. Sports teams exist to compete, not to perform and entertain or support another group that competes. B. Competitions are not frequently enough to satisfy NCAA, NFHS. C. Under the nation's Title IX regulations, which require universities receiving federal funds to offer equal athletic opportunities to both sexes, a sport must have...

...Chiropractic, Osteopathy and Physiotherapy: define, compare and contrast “There are a range of health care professions readily available to the community today. Three of them that are often compared include; Chiropractic, Osteopathy and Physiotherapy. It is important to understand the differences between and the purposes of each form of health care before commencing treatment with one of them. Chiropractic is a form of complementary medicine based on the diagnosis and correction of misalignments and disorders of the musculoskeletal and nervous system. Chiropractors aim to improve the function of the bodily systems, through addressing neuromuscular pain with chiropractic adjustments and by eliminating any interference and discomfort that may be impairing the body’s ability to self heal to reach optimal health. Chiropractic originated in 1895 when DD (Full name here) Palmer, a local grocer with a keen interest in metaphysics, started as a magnetic healer until he put forward the principles of chiropractic, “I was a magnetic healer for nine years previous to discovering the principles which comprise the method know as chiropractic. During this period much of that which was necessary to complete the science was worked out. I had discovered that many diseases were associated with derangements of the stomach, kidneys and other organs...” (1) The word chiropractic literally means in Greek, “done by hand” (2) and public interest in the practice was generated when he “cured” a janitor...

...human genetics have has only changed subtly from the land before time. The leading argument backing Paleo Diets is that the modern human diet, laced with carbohydrates and processed foods, combined with a stationary lifestyle does not coincide well with our genetic code. Experts believe that there is a conflict between our ancient biology and today’s eating habits. Obesity and obesity related diseases plague every nation on earth. The combination of functional fitness and a paleo based diet, could be an effective remedy for the obesity related diseases. In this research paper, I explore the biological and cultural responses that Cross Fit induces through its training and dietary methods. I aim to examine CrossFit as a form of cultural embodiment. What is CrossFit and CrossFit culture? CrossFit is a series of continuously varied functional movements done at high intensity. Its workouts display the best aspects of gymnastics, running, weightlifting, and more. CrossFit was viewed as one of the most intense forms of workouts, only second to strongman training which integrates CrossFit intensity with Heavy Weights and larger resistance. It began sweeping the America in 1996, developed by former Gymnast, Greg Glassman. Being the founder and CEO, he was the first to define fitness in a significant, quantifiable way: “increased work capacity across broad time and modal domains.

...Truc Nguyen Math(2pm-3:25pm) Argumentative essay 05/23/2010 Violence and Children Do you want your children to have psychological problems, to be kept away from neighboring people, or even to become a criminal the rest of their life? In family, children always need love and care from their parents. Every parent always wants their children to become good citizens, to have a wonderful life in the future, so we always try to teach them the best thing we know. However, we always think that whatever we teach will help them in the future, so we want our children follow and obey us. In reality, there are many ways to teach our children, such as, giving them the freedom to discover or telling them what is wrong, and what is right. Nevertheless, there is a very common mistake about using violence to raise a child. It is wrong! Consequently, violent behaviors to children in any situation are absolutely unacceptable because of moral issue, psychological problems, and family relationship for our children. Some families use violence to teach their children because they think a light spanking has more effects than a thousand lectures. Besides, they might think it’s just a light hurt to their children, doesn’t make them too pained or leave trace in their skin. They just want to make their children to be scared and to never repeat the mistake again. However, they are wrong because even thought the light spanking or light violent action doesn’t make the child hurt, it leaves many worse...

...Contact Sports Head/Body Injuries Research Paper November 19, 2013 Down, Set, Hut, Hut! The ball snaps, and everyone clashes into each other like warriors in battle. This is what we love about the game of football. While we are enjoying this rugged game, behind the scenes there are players in pain on and off of the field. From them having concussions to broken toes, or in other words from head to toe, every game possibly being there last one depending on the extremity of their next injury they still continue to play and entertain us. In this paper we are going to journey through some of those injuries and issues due to this sport we love and how we could help solve it, and help these athletes we love so much be able to stay in the game of football a little longer. To start off, although we’re just focusing on NFL, I have to let you know it’s not just affecting them, but the little ones we having playing this sport as well. In an article I read entitled, “Hits to the Head Don’t Differ in Age, Research Indicates”, it says that more 25,000 kids ranging from ages 8 to 19 are taken to the emergency room seeking treatment for concussions each year (Belson, 2013). This goes to say that although we enjoy when the adults are doing all this physical contact, but when it’s our own kids do we feel the same way? Well, in this case think of those NFL players as you do your children. What if they could never play again, on or off of the field? In reading another article by Sabrina Rogers...

Consequently, both psychotherapists and doctors recommend to their patients to participate in activities that advance a healthier lifestyle (Bull 1995).

...seem more exciting as they have higher production values, higher-quality coverage and higher-quality commentary. When watching women’s sports, there are fewer camera angles, cuts to shot and instant replays so it’s going to seem like a slower game and become less appealing to the public. Furthermore, spectators have acknowledged that elite female athletes are simply not equal to their male counterparts in terms of physical ability as the difference is visible and impossible to ignore. Women’s sports that are identical to men’s sports – soccer and basketball, for example – will never be popular because men are faster, stronger and more athletic. On the other hand, sports that highlight the different strengths of female athletes – tennis, gymnastics, ice skating – are...

Causes of obesity: Overeating, lack of exercise, genetics Teens suffer from obesity usually during their high school years which later on leads to serious health issues as they turn adults. School does provide prevention programs on smoking, alcohol, abstinence; however eating healthy is less given importance. Moreover, lunches offered at school play a great role in teen obesity with fattening, starchy foods and vending machine facility (Fibkins, 2006). Question of Inquiry What has caused teen obesity nowadays? We can see around the world the increase in number of teen obesity. As we know teens have always known to be the most active age group is not true any more. My research is based on what are the reasons behind this and the factors that have led to this problem lately and how can it be prevented. It is understandable obesity at old age because there is less physical activity and people do not care about their physical appearance that much but the question arises why there is an increase in teen obesity when we know teens are more health conscious, aware of looks and living up to the latest fashion possible. Sources of information used to gather Evidence Whatever I have researched is from secondary data. I have come across a great deal of information from the internet which I would share in my...
