The ergogenic aid I will be discussing is the Fitbit, the Blaze model in particular since this is the one I currently have. The reason I use a Fitbit is to help me track many aspects of my health, but two of the main features of this model is the step count and the heart rate monitor. This gadget would be considered a mechanical ergogenic aid. The Fitbit helps me know if I am having an un-active day and I need to walk more; it also helps me track my heart rate zones. It shows me if I am in fat burn zone, cardio zone, or peak zone. An alternative to this would be to either get solely a heart rate monitor or another fitness tracker. Other fitness tracker brands include: Jawbone, Misfit, and Garmin. There are many positives to the Fitbit Blaze

From Africa to America, African American women have embraced the spirit of creativity and survival. For years the black woman has been the backbone of our culture. It was our faith and positive spirits that played a great part in surviving slavery and being treated as second class citizens during the Civil Rights Movement. Now as we enter the 21st century, it is time to exert our strengths at a new level. The African American woman's role is to grow and prosper in business, support and be active in her community, maintain a strong family foundation, be spiritually grounded and to emend our health.

The target population may be Planned Parenthood (PP) as an entity, but the policy will affect the clients that depend on PP for services. If House Bill 294 passes, it will end federal funding to Planned Parenthood (House Bill 294, 2015). Planned Parenthood provides services to Medicaid recipients and other individuals with little to no income. The services provided by PP include providing free or low-cost contraceptives, cancer screenings, STD testing and treatment (Planned Parenthood, 2016). The population who loses if this policy is passed are the individuals living in poverty and medically underserved areas since they are over half of PP clients (Heisler, 2016). They are already disadvantaged by not having sufficient medical services in the area; Planned Parenthood is one of the key resources that are specifically planted in low-income areas to be accessible to this diverse population. With the easy access to contraceptives being lost, pregnancy will be on the rise along with STDs, since treatment will no longer be provided in a quick and easy manner. For an already impoverished and oppressed community these consequences could be dire.

This time last year, Dawn was walking less than 10,000 steps a day. As of now, her daily goal has shot up to 15,000 to 20,000 steps. The Fitbit vibrates to let Dawn know that she’s reached her step goal for the day is a small victory
Fitbit is a wearable, wireless gadget that tracks the user's activity during the day. It will measure distances, steps and calories similar to a pedometer, but also will provide other useful information depending on the particular model that the user decides to own. When users purchase certain models of this device, they can opt to wear the device overnight to allow the Fitbit to monitor their sleep habits. This is where it differs from a pedometer since it will keep track of how many hours of sleep the user receives on top of the number of time the user wakes during the night.
