Instruction:
You will choose a topic related to resistance training that is of interest to you. It is advised to consider topics discussed in the textbook as these will be presented in quizzes and the final exam. Examples could include resistance training adaptations for a particular sport, disease, special population, body system, neural adaptations, muscular adaptations, bioenergetic adaptations, etc.
You will then find one peer-reviewed research article to read & summarize. The article must be an original research article. This means it must have an intervention. Reviews or meta-analyses will not be accepted. The article should be published in the last 5 years.
You will then create a short oral presentation that summarizes the article.
In your presentation, you should include at minimum:
Brief introduction (e.g. why you chose this topic)
Discuss the intro/purpose of the article.
Discuss the methods used.
Discuss the results.
Discuss the studies application considerations (e.g. why was the study important, how can the findings be used to inform practice/programming)
Be sure to define any relevant terminology throughout the presentation (e.g. if it's a study over multiple sclerosis, define this for your audience) and provide an APA style citation.
You must provide a pdf of the article in your submission.
You will present your article in-class.
Students will also be required to discuss each article after the presentation. Specifically, students will:
Provide feedback to your peer, was the presentation easily legible? Was it easy to understand? What could be improved upon?
What concerns were raised in regard to the study? E.g. was the methodology appropirate?
What did you learn that you did not know before viewing your peer's presentation?
