Personal Needs.

/in /by

please focuse on running a 5k please.

Using the outline in the Stack Coaches and Trainers article, in 500 words or less, perform a needs analysis on yourself.

When you perform your needs analysis, be realistic. What activities are you currently doing that you want to improve on? Or, if you aren’t currently active, what would you like to do (e.g., rec softball, run a 5k)? Use this as an opportunity to start building a plan. Consider the following:

What’s the activity?
Consider the muscles/movements: upper extremity push/pull, lower extremity push/pull; rotational stability, rotational power
Consider what energy systems you will need: will you use explosive power or do you need endurance for sustained postures or movements. How do you develop those?
Do you need muscle bulk (hypertrophy), strength, endurance, strength-endurance?
What injuries are common in this activity? What could you do to prevent/minimize the risk?

The client/athlete (i.e., You!)
Consider your training age. Have you been working out for decades or are you relatively new to working out, or have you switched from being a marathoner and now want to do Cross Fit?
What’s your relevant injury history (e.g., ACL reconstruction 10 years ago and now how chronic knee pain and swelling with impact); how will you work around this maximizing function while protecting yourself as best as possible?
Where are you in your training year? Are you just starting up or have you been going hard for six months and might need a recovery cycle?

Prior to beginning work on this discussion, read Chapter 1 of your course text and explore the Subject Categories (Links to an external site.) web page.

Mental health professionals are a diverse group and range greatly in their scope and depth of practice. In terms of doctorly prepared practitioners you will often find yourself working with psychologists, psychiatrists, neurologists, and neuropsychologists. Using websites such as Study.com (Links to an external site.), explore these careers and what roles these professionals play. Then consider the three cases below and imagine you are the case worker for each instance. Your job is to refer the patient to one (and only one) of the professionals (i.e., psychologist, psychiatrist, neurologist, or neuropsychologist) who is the best choice to evaluate and manage the case.

  • Case 1 (Gary). Gary is a 23-year-old male who just last year enrolled in community college and who came to the attention of his professors when his grades started to drop. When asked what was going on he stated that there were people watching him all the time making it hard for him to sleep and therefore to study.
  • Case 2 (Connie). Connie is a 40-year-old mother of three and has been employed at a local warehouse for the last many years. She is well liked and gets great job performance reviews. Recently she has shown instances of being late, her work has declined, and she has been seen crying when off alone. She states she is upset over her children leaving for college and her husband not giving her much attention.
  • Case 3 (James). James is a 30-year-old semipro ball player. He was, until recently, moving up in his career and was getting a lot of attention from scouts. However, just in the last few weeks his pitching started to suffer, he became irritable over nearly everything, and was just found slumped over the steering wheel of his car that had rolled into another parking space. He was uninjured but seemed very confused.

In your initial post,

  • Determine which one (and only one) of the professionals (i.e., psychologist, psychiatrist, neurologist, or neuropsychologist) is the best choice to evaluate and manage each case.
    • Who do you pick?
    • Why?
    • Why not one of the other practitioners?

In 200-300 wordsMany people believe that the use of biometrics is an invasion of privacy. For example, an eye scanning device records the inner structure of a persons eye and stores that image in a database. Critics worry that databases of human traits used to maintain corporate security may actually pose a privacy threat to individuals, if such data were used in other ways. In your view, are such concerns justified? Why or why not?
