t wear a cast and not use that arm for six weeks? Based on the general theme of conservation, which of the following is most likely to happen if an athlete breaks his arm and must wear a cast and not use that arm for six weeks? The muscles in the other arm will get stronger in order to help out. Muscles in the injured arm will get smaller because they are not being used. The muscles in the injured arm will not change—only the bone was broken. The muscles in the injured arm will get stronger to compensate for the injured bone.

Answer:

The most likely to happen if an athlete breaks his arm and must wear a cast and not use that arm for six weeks'Muscles in the injured arm will get smaller because they are not being used.'

Explanation:

So therefore when an arm is broken it is only the bone that is broken the muscle remains intact but use of the arm within that period is what will determine the increase or decrease of muscle strength.

since by the statement above we have been able to establish the fact that the arm is not being used then we can conclude that strength of the muscle will decrease.

Four major steps for conducting strength tests

Explanation:

Step1 : Select resistance exercises

Step2: Determine the load athletes can work

Step3: Testing athlete based on essential exercises

Step4: Determine the one rep max

The ultimate goal in conducting strength tests is to evaluate an individual’s one repetition maximum. This refers to the greatest load that a person can fully move by pushing, pulling or lifting once without injuring or damaging the muscle or any failure.  

Strength testing is done through resistance exercises to measure the strength or ability to work against resistance. It depicts the maximum force that the muscle or muscle group generate to do a work in a repetitive ordered series without damaging the muscles or fatiguing. Depending upon the type of muscle, strength tests and exercises varies.

Benchmarks should be set for athletes to determine the load that he/she can lift repetitively for a given number of times.

How can you stop yourself from starving yourself when depressed?​
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer: Honest Awnser

I'm going to be briefly honest with you. I'm not sure if this is a real question or one simply because you're feeling this way. If you're wanting to starve yourself due to depression/feeling bigger. I would simply first talk with someone such as an adult or a doctor to seek help and guidance if you're in need of it. There is no way of just stopping yourself if it is a severe wanting to do something such as starve yourself. But, if it isn't severe I'd slowly move yourself to eat, starting with small snacks to small meals slowly. Don't overdo it by making yourself each a huge meal, but slowly add up to a normal meal.
