Andrews, Mark A.W. "How Does Exercise Make Your Muscles Stronger?"
Scientific

American. Scientific American, 27 Oct. 2003. Web. 23 Oct. 2013.

Mark Andrews begins by defining and explaining the kinds of muscles

you will most

likely make stronger when exercising. Andrews then goes

on to explains the basic

principals of the mechanisms of exercise.

Another important thing that Andrews

wrote about was the neural basis of

muscle strength enhancement.

I could take Andrews Article and talk about how the neural basis of
muscle strength enhancement mainly incorporates the recruitment of more
muscle cells, which is a

process often referred to as synchronous

activation. This adaptation is creating

gigantic strength gains with rather

minimal hypertrophy and is often seen in women

and adolescents that

exercise, often using nerve and muscle cells that are present.

The stress

evoked from repetition of exercise yields neural and muscular

enhancements in the increase of muscle strength.
Brown, Lee E., ed. Strength Training. Champaign: Human Kinetics, 2007.
Print.
This source will teach me about strength training and human kinetics
and how they cohesively work. Lee Brown about how kinesiology is the
scientific study of human or non-human body movement. It also tells
about how I can incorporate kinesiology in my daily workout plans.
The most important thing I would do with Lee Browns writing is trying
to apply it to my workouts. Since it is the study if human movement
that correlates with strength training I believe that this would be a
great asset to all the tools Im using to build my workout plan. Also I

can use this in my writing with how different forms of strength training
can all work together to make you stronger.
Busch, Sandi. "What Are the Benefits of Eating Salads?" SFGate. Hearst
Communication, 2013. Web. 23 Oct. 2013.
Salads composed from even a few ingredients make a nutrient-rich
meal. The greens

alone have calcium, iron, potassium and B vitamins.

Many salad basics, including tomatoes, sweet peppers and the greens, are
chock-full of antioxidants. Add high

fiber and low calories into the mix

and you can't go wrong including a salad in your

daily diet.

I could use this information both in my paper and in my personal life.

As of today, I have yet to eat a fruit or a vegetable since I have been at
Ball State University. However, I have been told from a very young age
that Im not going to live a very long life if I dont start eating enough
nutrients, potassium and calcium which come from eating fruits and
vegetables, after doing this research, I believe I now have a clear
understand the importance of eating not only salad but veggies in
general and, I can apply my knowledge of its importance in my paper.

Endomornh

Body Types." The Fit Indian. Fit Indian, 6 June 2013. Web.

This website is designed with the purpose of helping humans get the
body they have always wanted and dreamed of. Chevva talks about
the pros and cons of being an Ectomorph, Mesomorph, or an
Endomorph. Chevva also leaves you with vivid understanding that
these body types have to work out in different ways and then explains
how to do so.
I plan to using this information to help with creating my personal
workout plan. The information will also go hand in hand helping me
make a diet plan and a plan to keep my nutrition up so I wont be
unhealthy. This website will be of an overall good use of my time by
helping me find better ways to stay in shape.

Delavier, Frdric. Strength Training Anatomy. Third ed. Paris: ditions Vigots,
2010. Print.
This book by Frdric Delavier was one of the most helpful of all! In
thteaches me things about the anatomy of strength training breaking
things

down to the bare minimum. One of the most useful parts

the book is the multiple examples on how to exercise correctly. It also

gives a road map to what muscles you are using when you are
exercising that way you can be more direct with your body when
working out.

I plan to use this book and its information to help build a workout plan
that in individualized for each of the major muscles intensively. It will
also teach me how to create a diagram of the human body its muscle
groups. Finally, it will help me with identifying bone structures.
Dennis, Anne. The Articulate Body. New York: Drama Book, 1995. Print.
This book gives actors and actresses as a whole a new outlook on
physical theatre. It helps define many new ways to shape your body
and how to thoroughly think about your instrument as a whole. The
book is designed to teach new ways of thinking while you are
performing any kind of physical theatre
I plan to use this in many of my classes so that I can learn about these
new ways of thinking and moving the body. Ive always needed more
information to get my body more physically aware during
performances and now I have the key that I need. I have always
considered myself a physical actor from doing many projects but after
gathering this information, I do believe that I was very wrong.

Garcia, Risa Bramon. "8 Reasons Why Actors Must Train." Backstage.
Backstage, 24 Oct.

2012. Web. 11 Sept. 2013.

This article explains the importance of why actors and actresses must
effectively train and warm up their bodies before a show. The article
also explains why we train so often and lead us to examine ways that
we can train better. The author wants to let us know that we should do
all that they possibly can to be the best at our craft and that we
shouldnt settle for less than the absolute best!
I plan on using this article with my everyday life mentality but
especially the days that I have most of my physical training done which
are Tuesdays and Thursdays. On these days I have PIP right at 8:00,

"How to Prevent and Treat the Seven Most Common Sports Injuries." WebMD.
WebMD, n.d.

Web. 31 Aug. 2016.

This will be one of the most important sources I use. Its purpose is to
explain some of the most common sports injuries and how to avoid
them. On the contrary the article teaches us how to treat them if we
ever got one. Dance may not be as competitive as football or
basketball, but it is definitely a sport and should be treated as such.
I want to use this in my paper so I can see ways that I could potentially
harm myself. I intend to use that knowledge so that I dont end up
hurting myself and if I do Ill know how to effectively treat it. I have
already come across several of these injuries and I didnt treat them
properly which could have damaged them more! Im glad I now have a
clear understanding on what to do the next time something rolls
around.
Manore, Melinda, and Janice Thompson. Sport Nutrition for Health and
Performance.

Champaign: Human Kinetics, 2000. Print.

This book talks about nutrition and the effects it has on the body. It
helps to distinguish good nutrition from bad nutrition and why theyre
important. The book also teaches you about how to diet effectively.
These nutritional facts will be helpful to me. I will be able to use them
in the paper so that I can eat better and be healthy. Once Ive made an
effective diet plan I can then work out and get leaner more effectively.

The Mayo Clinic. "Stretching: Focus on Flexibility." Mayo Clinic. Mayo

Foundation, 2013.

Web. 25 Sept. 2013.

This site describes the benefits of stretching and how it helps the body.
It gives examples of why athletes who stretch are more prepared to
practice and do physical activity than those who dont. Some of the
benefits of stretching include improving athletic performance in some
activities and decreases the risk of activity-based injuries.
I plan on using this both in the paper and in everyday life. The
information that is exuded the Mayo Clinic I know has helped many
including me! As a dancer I have always stretched because I was told
to. Whereas now I stretch because I know I need to and that its

Nutrition 101 explained lean muscle and why it should be important to

us as performers. It goes through a guide of what to eat and the most
effective way to do it. More importantly, it goes through 15 different
foods and what they have in them that is good for your body.
I can use this when figuring out what the best way to use my meal
swipe. I can also use it a constant reminder that I need more than
exercise to effectively get stronger. I can also use this to create a
healthier diet for myself

a combination of proper care and a change in the habits or activities

that caused them. The site also reintegrates that all musicians, from
casual players to seasoned performers, should learn the causes of
overuse injuries in order to prevent their occurrence, and how to
recognize the signs of such injuries at the earliest possible time.
I plan to use this source to give myself a better understanding of what
to do when I hurt myself. When training in physical theatre or dance
injuries can be quite common. No I have the knowledge on how to
prevent them myself and cause less injuries
