My original hypothesis was correct based on the data I collected throughout my experiment. All three of the subjects’ heart-rates increased right after the sit-up’s. Tim’s heart-rate started at the lowest (70 bpm) and increased the most, ending at 106 bpm. That’s an increase of 36 bmp. Tim is 14 years old and was the unhealthiest of all the subjects with a fitness level of 3. He was the only subject who had any trouble getting through the sit-ups, as he was having a tougher time getting through the last 5 of the set of 20 sit-ups. He was the only subject breathing heavily after the experiment. I believe because Tim had to work harder than any of the other subjects to complete the 20 sit-ups, his heart-rate also increased more. Jim’s resting heart-rate started at 78 bpm and then after the exercises ended at 100 bpm. That’s an increase of 22 bpm. Jim was the oldest of all the subjects, he is 50 years old. Jim didn’t have any problems completing the 20 sit-ups. He has a fitness level of 7 and he does light exercises every other day. So, he is a relatively healthy …show more content…
He had the highest resting heart-rate (81 bpm) and the lowest increase (16 bpm), ending at 97 bpm right after the sit-ups. Cayden is also the healthiest of the subjects with a fitness level of 9. He participates in many of the seasonal sports and he does weights as well. He had the easiest time getting through the sit-ups and it didn’t seem to affect his breathing at all. I believe the reason why Cayden had such a low increase in heart-rate after the sit-ups is because he is very healthy, so the 20 sit-ups weren’t enough of an exercise to increase his heart-rate past what it did increase to. Lastly, Cayden was in a bad mood all the way through the experiment which explains why he had the highest resting heart-rate. He was annoyed by the questions and was quickly trying to rush me so that he could go back to doing his own
In the first experiment I was subject 2. For the most part my heart rate did not oscillate too much. My heart rate was a little slower than the other subjects as well. Compared to Activity 2, his oscillations while exercising were a little more dramatic. The reason for this could be that your heart is trying to adjust to the new physically taxing activity that you are enduring. Your body is trying to balance, but if it is thrown into a demanding activity it will take a little bit more adjusting than if you are just resting.
A heart rate monitor could have been used instead of the manual method, which would produce a more accurate result of the heart rate measurement. (http://www.topendsports.com/testing/heart-rate-measure.htm).
When reading the first couple of pages of the short story, I concluded that the story was taking place back in the day because of the price of the herring snacks (464). I would never find herring for 49 cents. I was able to relate to the situation of the boy when the lady got mad when he rang up the item wrong. I work at a grocery store so I am able to relate to people getting made when you ring up an item twice. They get very mad and act like it’s the end of the world. I found it rude that Sammy called the girls pale and chunky even though he did not mean any harm to call the girls that (461). The girls did not have a name so they made of ones. When Sammy describes the girls that he sees, it reminds me of the movie “Mean Girls” because of
I will have two groups both containing 5 people, in total 10 people all are males, one group contains people who practice an aerobic exercise on a daily-basis (soccer and basketball), while the other group contains people who do not practice an
Being knowledgeable about the heart is very important, especially if one is an athlete. This experiment is significant, because it can tell us how important it is for one to keep their heart healthy. It will also tell us how playing a sport can benefit one’s health and the well being of their heart. Our hypothesis says, if the athleticism of a person increases, then the heart rate recovery time will decrease when heart rate recovery in a function of athleticism. The purpose of this project is to see which type of athlete, or non-athlete has the best heart function.
Animal Farm is a masterfully written cynical exploration into the abuse of power through language.c George Orwell's book provides a theory of power structures, equality and the very nature of human character. As a short, ten-chaptered essay, this book has made its mark on the communist and authoritarian societies with the cutting morals and the phrase “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others”
For the student that was jogging his calories before jogging it was 21.5 calories, Than after jogging his loss of calories was 568. His carbon dioxide before jogging was 1,700. Next than his carbon dioxide went up after exercising was 3,311 and the difference in Carbon dioxide before and after results were 1,611. The heart rate of the student before exercising was 75 beats per minute. After exercising his heart rate went up to 85.6 beats per minute. Next then is about the student's skin temperature before
As the intensity of exercise increased, so did the rates of the heart and breathing. After a small period of rest, the heart rate and breathing rate both decreased to a point close to their resting rate. This proved the stated hypothesis. First, the hearts average resting rate was recorded to be 76 bpm. The heart is therefore transporting oxygen and removing carbon dioxide at a reasonably steady rate via the blood. During the low intensity exercise (Slow 20) the heart rate increases to 107 bpm, which further increases to 130bpm at a higher intensity level (Fast 20). The heart therefore needs to beat faster to increase the speed at which oxygen is carried to the cells and the rate at which carbon dioxide is taken away by the blood.
Now that the experiment has been tested, the results are in there comes the analysis part of the process. After I had determined my calculation I saw where my beats per minute were over a hundred; this consider me to be Tachycardia. Tachycardia refers to an abnormally fast resting heart rate. When examining what Tachycardia was and how it can be affected made me see that different scenarios will affect the beats per minute. Anxiety, caffeine, stress can all cause someone to have such a rapid heartbeat. I remember from when taking the echocardiogram that I was stressed
Ensuring that the patient was relaxed and comfortable I began to take her pulse, using my three middle finger tips to locate the pulse. I did so for 15 second and timed by fore for the next 15 seconds I measured her respiration rate and timed by 4. I did not explain to my patient that I was taking her respirations as looking at her chest may have made her feel uncomfortable and increase her respirations. Her pulse rate ending up being 85 beats per minute and respirations were 15 breaths per minute. These results were within normal range, as her pulse rate was between 80 and 120 bpm and respirations were between 12 and 20 (Tollefson, 2010). The change in pulse and respiration rate can increase during excercise. If a pulse is recorded below 50 bpm the patient can be at risk of a heart attach. A fast pulse exceeding 100 bpm can be a sign of infection or dehydration. This can be detected quickly and appropriate action taken to prevent negative affects on the patient’s well being.
Introduction: In this experiment, cardiovascular fitness is being determined by measuring how long it takes for the test subjects' to return to their resting heart rate. Cardiovascular fitness is the ability to "transport and use oxygen while exercising" (Dale 2015). Cardiovascular fitness utilizes the "heart, lungs, muscles, and blood working together" while exercising (Dale 2015). It is also how well your body can last during moderate to high intensity cardio for long periods of time (Waehner 2016). The hypothesis is that people who exercise for three or more days will return to their resting heart rate much faster than people who only exercise for less than three days.
The controlled variable included the exercise bike and heart rate monitor. There are several limitations, systematic and random errors that should be considered when interpreting these results. (4) The controlled variables were not tested before this experiment to see if they were working and reliable. Figure 2 heart rate was quite inconsistent and did not follow the pattern of the other results, which maybe suggest a random error with the heat rate monitor. A systematic error could include the fitness of the participants. One of the test subjects is an endurance athlete and the other does not compete in any sport. This would affect the results because for the endurance-trained athlete, from their training they increase their cardiac output results from a substantial increase in maximal stroke volume. In untrained persons, cardiac output increases in response to exercise primarily by an increase in heart rate. The endurance-trained athlete does so mainly by an increase in stroke volume. Simply meaning that although both participants are doing the same cadence and length the endurance athletes skewers the results by already having an increased rate in stroke volume. Another systematic error may include the rate of perceived effort. For the most accurate results, the measured maximum heart rate would be necessary to give an accurate cadence to ride at.
The heart rates of participants was tested before the step test, one minute, two minutes, and three minutes after the step test was performed in this experiment. Since heart rate increases while someone is performing physical activity, it was expected that heart rates of the students would be higher than before the step
Leadership is the ability to influence people to want to achieve a goal or task. You have a plan and you inspire a vision for accomplishing the plan. As challenges occur, you use expertise and/or experience to set the example and lead the way, which enables others to act. Overcoming challenges and working hard together encourages the hearts of all, and as you see the fruits of your efforts and the completion of the goal, you have successfully applied leadership. I have to attribute my first leadership influences to my parents. My father taught me the value of working hard to accomplish your goals. He worked a full time job with the State Highway Department for 28 years along with owning and operating a dairy farm. My mother had
I undertook this test twice to get balanced results. In my first trial I did 67 sit-ups in a minute but in my second trial I was only able to do 64 sit-ups in a minute. There were three main factors that affected my performance majorly:
