Answer:

"As you get older, absorption is prolonged and medications may take a little longer to act than normal". Aspirin in particular shall be given in large divided dose/ day to produce effect.

explain: Continually yelling at a pitcher to “throw strikes,” or constantly forcing him to make conscious mechanical changes, is not an effective way to improve command. In many cases, the outcome of this will be the complete opposite.  We know this. We will discuss how we train command and how it can be implemented into team practice in an upcoming post.  Before we get to that, and the use of weighted baseballs and differential command balls to help train command, let’s review the common trap athletes and coaches fall into regarding command improvements.

What happens when you break or sprain your ankle
Bad White [126]
When you break or sprain your ankle (ouch!), your ankle fractures and will begin to swell. If you break your ankle, the bone may slightly stick out, which can be easy to spot on your skin. When your ankle is sprained, it will usually swell with pain and will be a bright red color from the pain it's taking.

Hope that helps! UnicornFudge aka Nadia
