The Brain I never thought that the brain could develop for, but research shows that there are better ways to make it grow even for adults. According to the article “You Can Grow Your Brain,” the brain is like a muscle and can get stronger when it is used. Before this, people thought that the brain was a mystery, and people are born intelligent. I thought people were born dumb and stayed that way for the rest of their life. The essay will show how my views have changed regarding the ability to learn new things and develop skills and how I may apply the knowledge gained from the article in learning. When weightlifters lift weight consistently, the muscles get stronger, and they can lift more weight in the future. Whether, when they stop exercising, the tissues shrink and get weaker, hence the phrase “use it or lose it” (You Can Grow Your Brain 1). When individuals continually use their brains, more extensive networks are formed between the neurons enabling a person to think or solve problems. The article explores…
Short-term Regulation of Blood Pressure Blood pressure is used to measure how well the cardiovascular system is functioning. It is a measure of the forces that are within the cardio-vascular center during the pumping of the blood from the heart. Blood pressure is vital in our body as it helps give our body organs enough nutrients and blood they need. Very high blood pressure can damage the blood vessels. It is, therefore, important that our bodies maintain healthy blood pressure at all times. In this paper, we will look at the short-term control of blood pressure, and some of the problems likely to experience when the blood pressure control is lost. Blood pressure can be measured manually using a stethoscope or using an automated blood pressure monitor. There is the systolic- heart pressure during contraction, and the diastolic pressure- heart pressure immediately after one contraction. The cardiovascular center plays a crucial role in maintaining the body through nutrients and hormone transportation. It also plays a significant role in the removal of waste products from the body organs. The cardiovascular center…
Rowing Machines Vs. Treadmill A rowing machine, also known as an ergometer, is a remarkable piece of workout equipment with distinct features. Rowing machines are generally designed to emulate the moves of the rowers who paddle their boats in the water. To use the unit, the user will need to sit on the provided sliding board, then slide upwards of the machine by stretching the legs. The next thing is pulling action that involves using your core and arms. At the back of the machine, take a short pause and reverse the move to slide to the front- you basically extend your arms, the body and contract your legs. Perform the movements several times to hit your daily workout routine. The movements done on a rowing machine offers full-body workouts as it involves all the major muscle groups in your body.

Essential Facts You Should Know About Arthritis Arthritis is a disease of the joints and can affect either a single or multiple joints. Many types of arthritis have different causes and treatments. The most common type of Arthritis in Des Plaines, Illinois, is rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. In many occasions, arthritis affects people of 65 years and above, but can also affect children, youth, and young adults. Research has proved that the disease is more common among women than men, especially those with overweight. What Causes Arthritis? Your joints have a flexible connective tissue called the cartilage. The work of the cartilage is to protect the joints by absorbing shock ad excessive pressure when you put stress on them. When the amount of cartilage tissue reduces, some forms of arthritis develop. An injury or an infection can cause a breakdown of cartilage tissue to the joints. If your family lineage has a history of osteoarthritis, you may be at risk of having it in the future. Rheumatoid Arthritis occurs when your body tissues get attacked by your immune system.…
Exercise Any bodily activity performed to keep the body fit and healthy is known as exercise. Exercise is used to enhance the overall well-being and health of a living organism. There are different motivators to exercising. For one, exercise can be used for weight loss, for improving the health condition of a person and lastly for enjoyment.

There are also people trained to help other people exercise. These are specialized people and know the different types of exercises for different persons. It is important to note that this paper will focus on physical exercising. This can be grouped into three to include aerobic, anaerobic and flexibility exercises. Aerobic exercise uses large muscle groups and leads to the use of too much oxygen in the process. The body is compensating for the loss of oxygen due to the conversion of the oxygen to carbon dioxide. This is during the process of exercising.…
