Health Benefits Of Golf
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Golf is one of society's favorite pastimes, yet many people do not realize just how beneficial it is to one's health. The seemingly insignificant movements associated with golf – swinging the club, bending over to pick up the ball, walking from hole to hole – encourage several types of bodily movement that helps to stretch and tone muscles, as well as aid in proper blood circulation. While golf may not be considered an aerobic activity like running or swimming, where the heart is worked to its full capacity, it is still considered a gentle way in which people can obtain their need for regular exercise.

Health Promotion: Lowering Personal Cholesterol Levels
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper presenting an individual health promotion designed to last only two weeks. Based on diet and exercise for the purpose of lowering cholesterol, the result of the intervention may be that the individual experiences a sense of well being and heightened responsibility for his own health. If so, then motivation for continuing past the two week period may become intrinsic rather than being driven for the purpose of completing a required record sheet. Ultimately, the health promotion should have positive effects on the individual’s cholesterol levels as measured by a blood test. In the meantime, targets and outcomes can be assessed by means of the three modalities of overt motor behavior, physiological response and the cognitive sphere. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

How Diet Plans Are Deceiving
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. One says to eat only low-fat, low-calorie foods; another says to eat only the foods found within a certain group; yet another says to eat only the amount of food that equals the number of points one is allowed for the entire day; while still another advocates eschewing all of the above and consume only high protein, low-carbohydrate foods. Clearly, the myriad weight-reduction plans that exist throughout contemporary society are enough to confuse any potential dieter. The writer discusses how contemporary diets reflect the significant pressures placed upon those who are both impressionable and vulnerable. With the primary influence being that of popular culture, overweight individuals are faced with difficult choices when it comes to proper food choices and weight loss programs. Atkins is the focus of this paper. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
