Do you know that just by walking 10,000 steps each day, you burn more than 300 calories? Be #healthy

Our fast-paced and hectic lifestyle requires us to not just be active everyday but also to watch what we consume daily especially the consumption of salt and sugar.

Do you know that just by walking 10,000 steps each day, you burn more than 300 calories? By choosing the stairs instead of an elevator or walking to a park further from your destination and making the time to go for a walk, it can help strengthen your muscles and bones.

Here are some tips:
- Find shoes that can double as dress/work shoes and walking shoes so you can always be ready to walk.
- Don’t email your co-worker down the hall, walk to them instead. Save the email and phone calls to talk to them for a closer contact

Think about it the next time you say hello to your colleagues and loved ones. Those few steps everyday can make you a fitter and healthier person! Also don't forget to reduce the carbs and only consume what your body needs to maintain a healthy living. Happy holidays!

ABSTRACT

This study investigates the prevalence and influence of prepartying behavior along with the co-occurrence of drinking game participation among a sample of Division 1 student-athletes (N = 568) from two institutions. Results indicate that 67% (n =382) of the sample had prepartied in the past month, with 36% (n = 205) of the overall sample also having typically played drinking games in that context. Individuals that typically played drinking games while prepartying reported higher risk on the main outcome variables of overall past month alcohol consumption, prepartying-specific drinking behavior, and negative alcohol-related consequences than the prepartying-only group, which in turn evidenced higher consumption and risk when compared to the non-prepartying group. Moreover, males, as compared to females, demonstrated elevated scores on all outcome variables. Implications include the potential to help inform both prevention and intervention efforts among student-athletes.http://www.athleticinsight.com/Vol13Iss2/Party.htm

Causes of Achilles Tendon Injury

2011-10-22T20:09:00.000-07:00

Achilles tendon injuries can be caused by: overuse, misalignment, improper footwear, medication side effects, and/or accidents. Multiple causes often contribute to the same Achilles tendon injury. For example: a sudden increase in hill climbing, worn out shoes, and weak or tight calf muscles could all contribute to Achilles tendinosis and Achilles tendonitis.

Overuse

Too fast of an increase in athletic activities such as:
- Running or walking longer;
- Running or walking faster;
- Running or walking up and down more or steeper hills or stairs;
- More or more powerful “explosive” movements such as lunges, jumps, or push off’s.
The athletic activity by itself is not the problem, the problem is doing too much too quickly or resuming too quickly after a layoff.
Types of injuries caused:
- Achilles tendinosis,
- Achilles tendonitis,
- Achilles tenosynovitis,
- Tennis Leg, or
- in the most severe cases: Achilles tendon rupture.

Misalignment

Examples:
- Unequal leg length,
- Over or under pronation,
- Short or tight Achilles tendons or calf muscles,
- Disproportionably weak calf muscles, and
- Misshapen heel or other foot bones.
Types of injuries caused:
- Achilles tendinosis,
- Achilles tendonitis,
- Achilles tenosynovitis,
- Tennis Leg, or
- in the most severe cases: Achilles tendon rupture.

Improper Footwear

Examples:
- Shoes or sports shoes with too much or too little:
  - Arch support,
  - Cushioning,
  - Motion control, and/or
  - Heel support;
- High heels; and
- Worn out shoes or sports shoes.
Types of injuries caused:
- Achilles tendinosis,
- Achilles tendonitis,
- Achilles tenosynovitis,
- Tennis Leg, or
- in the most severe cases: Achilles tendon rupture.

Medication Side Effects

The Quinolone group of antibiotics
- Example: Ciprofloxacin (Cipro®, Baycip®, Cetraxal®, Ciflox®, Cifran®, Ciplox®, Cyprobay®, Quintor®).
- Type of injuries caused:
  - Achilles tendinosis,
  - Achilles tendonitis,
  - Achilles tenosynovitis,
  - Tennis Leg, or
  - in the most severe cases: Achilles tendon rupture.
Cortisone
- Cortisone is an indirect, rather than a direct, cause of Achilles tendon injury. Cortisone can make a weakened Achilles tendon feel too comfortable. A patient who has received cortisone shots in or near the Achilles tendon may be able to overly stretch or strain their Achilles tendon without any pain – until they stretch or strain it to the point of rupture
- Contributing factor: the injury for which cortisone was prescribed.
- Type of injury caused: Achilles tendon rupture.

Accidents

Examples:
- Crushed in a car or work accident; or
- Cut (lacerated) by a lawn mower or in a work accident.
Type of injuries caused:
- Crushed Achilles tendon, or
- Lacerated Achilles tendon.

AchillesTendon

2011-10-22T19:38:00.000-07:00

The Achilles tendon is fibrous tissue that connects the heel to the muscles of the lower leg: the calf muscles. Leg muscles are the most powerful muscle group in the body and the Achilles tendon is the thickest and strongest tendon in the body. Contracting the calf muscles pulls the Achilles tendon, which pushes the foot downward. This contraction enables: standing on the toes, walking, running, and jumping. Each Achilles tendon is subject to a person’s entire body weight with each step. Depending upon speed, stride, terrain and additional weight being carried or pushed, each Achilles tendon may be subject to up to 3-12 times a person’s body weight during a sprint or push off.

Cervical cancer

2011-10-08T17:59:00.000-07:00

Cancer is a disease in wich cell in the body grow out of control. When cancer starts in the cevix it is called cervical cancer. The cervix is the lower, narrow end of the uterus. Also know as the womb, the uterus is where a baby grows when a women is pregnant. The cervix connects the upper part of the uterus to the vagina(the birth canal).

What are the symptoms?

Abnormal cervical cell changes rarely cause symptoms. But you may have symptoms if those cell changes grow into cervical cancer. Symptoms of cervical cancer may include:

http://www.question.com/adam/image_pages/9163.html

Bleeding from the vagina that is not normal, or a change in your menstrual cycle that you can't explain.
Bleeding when something comes in contact with your cervix, such as during sex or when you put in a diaphragm.
Pain during sex.
Vaginal discharge that is tinged with blood.

Uric Acid

2011-09-23T17:07:00.000-07:00

Uric Acid is a waste product from the break down of purine, a substance that is made within our body and found in many of the foods we eat. It is excreted through our urine,but when too much uric acid bulids up it can cause attacks of painful arthritis(gout) especially in toes and fingers. It can also result in kidney stones and blockage in the kidney.

ION DEFICIENCY ANEMIA

2011-09-16T17:38:00.000-07:00

What are the common causes of Ion Deficiency Anemia?

Blood loss due to heavy menstrual bleeding, stomach ulcer, colorectal cancer or uterine fibroids.
Inappropriate diet, unbalance diet and inability to absorb ion due to intestinal disorder or diseases. Some medications can also interfere with ion absorption.
Pregnancy due to increased blood volume demand from going fetus.

Am I at Risk of Developing Ion Deficiency Anemia?

Those who are at higher risk includes.
women with heavy menstruation.
Pregnant or lactating women.
Infants, children or adolescents in rapid growth phases.
People with poor dietary intake of ion
People with stomach ulcer disease or colon cancer.
Post-surgery patients.

Why should I Treat Anemia?

Iron deficiency anemia if left untreated can become severe and lead to health problems such as,

Irregular heartbeat which can lead to heart disease.
problem during pregnancy which may lead to premature births or low birth weight baby.
delayed growth, mental and physical development in children.

Try to eat food that are rich in ion together with orange juice or vitamin C tablet. Vitamin C will help to increase iron absorption. Increase fluid and fiber intake when taking ion supplement to minimize initial discomfort of constipation. Ion deficiency cannot be corrected overnight. You may need to take ion supplements for several months or longer to replenish your ion reserves.

Anemia

2011-09-15T18:29:00.000-07:00

What is Amemia?
Iron Deficiency Anemia(IDA) is a condition in which the blood lacks healty red blood cells to carry oxygen to tissues. Our body needs iron to make hemoglobin. without hemoglobin, red blood cells cannot carry oxygen. All tissues and cells in the body depend on oxygen to function properly. IDA is common especially in women. About 30% of non-pregnant women of reproductive age, 38% of pregnant women and 14% of men in rural areas are iron deficient in Malaysia.

Tennis Elbow

2011-07-29T22:22:00.000-07:00

image from: http://orthoinfo.aaos.org/

Tennis elbow, the most common elbow injury is the rally an inflammation of the forearm and the tendon that connects the muscles to the bone in the elbow. These muscles are used to bend the wrist backward and to turn the palm face up. When the muscles and tendon become inflamed from overuse, you feel pain on the outside of your elbow (the lateral epicondyle). The pain is worse when you try to lift things with your palm facing down, so you may have trouble picking up a things. Tennis elbow also causes pain when you rotate your hand in a clockwise direction, as you would in using a screwdriver or in screwing in a light bulb. You also will feel pain when you shake hands or hold a racquet or golf club. The pain may become so severe that it makes combing your hair virtually impossible.

Golfers also suffer from tennis elbow, but on the non-dominant side; a right-handed golfer will feel the pain in the left elbow. Pulling the club through the swing with the left wrist causes irritation in the left elbow. So a right-handed golfer who feels pain in the right arm or wrist is doing something terribly wrong during the swing.

A tennis player most often aggravates the elbow by hitting the ball late on a backhand swing. The backhand is an especially difficult stroke to master. When hitting the ball with your weight on your back foot, you have to compensate by mostly using your arm and hitting late causes your elbow to be bent. You end up straining the forearm muscles and tendon. You also get tennis elbow by turning your wrist to put more spin on the serve.

Once your elbow becomes inflamed, everyday activities are enough to keep it irritated. Giving up your weekly tennis game to rest your elbow is not enough to solve the problem. Treating tennis elbow requires an exercise program to increase the strength and flexibility of the forearm muscles and tendon. One they are strong enough to withstand the stress of a backhand, the pain will go away and won’t return.

MALAYSIAN XI V CHELSEA

2011-07-21T08:58:00.000-07:00

SUMMARY
It is consecutive 1-0 wins for Chelsea in pre-season as Didier Drogba's free-kick late in the second half is decisive. It was one of those did-it-cross-the-line-moments after it first hit woodwork and the keeper, the home side believing no.

Conditions were tough due to a bumpy pitch and extreme heat but Chelsea should have had more goals. Frank Lampard and Daniel Sturridge would have scored on many days.

The home team had just two chances, both badly missed and the Chelsea defence looks good. More sustained threat at the other end needs to be found but again it was different sides each half and a different role for Yossi Benayoun. Players may have longer on the pitch in Bangkok in three days' time.

The 84,980 crowd is believed to be the biggest ever official attendance for a Chelsea friendly match although it would be surpassed by the famous Moscow Dynamo match in 1945 if those that entered Stamford Bridge without paying that day are included. Those in Kuala Lumpur make a wonderful noise.
BEST MOMENTDrogba showing he is still a solid-gold match winner by both earning and converting the set-piece that separated the sides.

TEAM NEWS Starting was an unusual front three of Fernando Torres flanked bySalomon Kalou on the left and Yossi Benayoun on the right.Florent Malouda was on the left so starting captain Frank Lampard moved to a less accustomed right berth. Josh McEachran was again the deeper of the midfield three and there was a second appearance for centre-back Slobodan Rajkovic following the Wycombe game. He was paired with Branislav Ivanovic.

The second-half side was 11 different players with young Nathaniel Chalobah partnering John Terry and Billy Clifford and Yury Zhirkov both in midfield. Didier Drogba led the line with Nicolas Anelka left and Daniel Sturridge right.

The Malaysia side was most Under 23 internationals with a few senior professionals.

FIRST HALFThe wall of sound that rose many decibels when the team came out continued as the players kicked Right to Play red footballs into the crowd.

Within the first two minutes of the game there was a link-up between Benayoun and Torres, the Spaniard shooting from just outside the penalty area but the Malaysian keeper Farizal Marlias was up to the challenge and saved.

The home side pressed forward four minutes later but Bertrand with a burst of pace dispossessed their number 9, Hairudin Omar, who scored against Chelsea in this stadium eight years ago.

Benayoun, finding space off the right wing, almost slipped the right ball through to Kalou but it was just too strong and the keeper reached it first. Bertrand showed his pace getting forward after 17 minutes and although the cross was cut out, it was then gifted to Lampard who perhaps surprised by that, stabbed his shot wide from 10 yards out.

A McEachran and Kalou combination then looked to have handed Torres a clear sight of the target but full-back Subramaniam got in a vital sliding tackle.

The atmosphere continued to be immense, the majority present supporting Chelsea. An injury midway through the half brought an impromptu drinks break on a sweltering, tropical evening. Hilariohad been a total spectator.

Malaysia did win a 25th minute corner but Malouda headed away. Three minutes later Hilario saved well with his feet but Wan Nor was offside anyway.

The Blues made what looked an unscheduled change on 38 minutes with Van Aanholt coming on for Bertrand who held the back of his thigh. It was unfortunate for the England Under 21 international who had enjoyed as many good moments in the half as anyone.

Kalou crossed too high for Lampard before the Ivorian did tee up a chance for the same player who missed for a second time in the game, this time sliding onto a square pass but turning the ball wide.

The best Chelsea spell of the first half was saved for stoppage time, Benayoun unable to convert at the far post from Bosingwa's whipped-in cross, and then Van Aanholt bombing forward and taking a return pass from the Israeli but the keeper saved the young Dutchman's shot with his feet. The man between the Malaysian posts had a good opening 45 minutes.

SECOND HALFFavourite for the first attempt on goal from an all-changed Chelsea team would not have been Mikel but the Nigerian ran onto the ball and had a very worthy dig from 30-yards that flew a foot wide.

The new 11 players then struggled to put anything else together by way of an attack until Anelka showed vision to spot Terry's run from deep from the Frenchman's position way out on the left, but the low pass didn't quite reach its target.

At the other end the new back four were looking just as solid as their predecessors with Chalobah providing calm interceptions twice in three minutes.

Finally however on 67 minutes the home team had a genuine chance. The ball was given away and was knocked in behind Terry by Irfan Fazail to Syahrul Azwari but the moment got to the substitute and he blazed over.

Chelsea set-pieces looked a promising possibility against a team almost to a man shorter than the side in blue but Terry headed a Drogba free-kick over and then did the same with a Zhirkov corner moments later. Between those Sturridge should have scored.

He was given just the service he likes by Mikel, down the channel and onto his left foot. But the keeper again proved unbeatable, his last contribution before being subbed.

The goal came on 78 minutes and the free-kick that led to it was won by the scorer, Drogba caught when surging past an opponent. From out on the left his strike was sweet and when it cannoned off the post it bounced back off the diving keeper and down onto the line with plenty of spin.

The gloved hand of the substitute pulled it out and it will need a close study of TV replays to determine whether the linesman should have given the goal.

There should have been an equaliser on 84 minutes after a clever pass between the Chelsea centre-backs but Thamil Arasu wasted it, to his and his team-mates disbelief.

Volume, Density, Torque and Impulse

2011-06-28T06:01:00.002-07:00

Volume, Density, Torque and Impulse
A body’s volume is the amount of space that it occupies. Density
combines the mass of a body with the body volume. Density is defined
as mass per unit of volume. A rotary effect created by an eccentric force
is known as torque or moment of force. Torque, which may be thought
of as rotary force, is the angular equivalent of linear force. Impulse is
defined as product of force and the time over which the force acts.

Centre of Gravity, Weight and Pressure

2011-06-28T06:01:00.000-07:00

Centre of Gravity, Weight and Pressure
A body’s centre of gravity, or centre of mass, is the point around which
the body’s weight is equally balanced, no matter how the body is
positioned. Weight is defined as the amount of gravitational force
exerted on a body. Pressure is defined as force distributed over a given
area.

Inertia, Mass and Force

2011-06-28T05:58:00.000-07:00

Inertia, Mass and Force
Inertia means resistance to action or to change. Inertia is the tendency
of a body to maintain its current state of motion, whether motionless or
moving with a constant velocity. Mass is the quantity of matter
composing a body. Force can be thought of as a push or a pull on a
body. Each force is characterised by its magnitude, direction, and point
of application to a given body.
