Highlight 5 different resistance training exercises that could be used to overload muscles of the hand and forearm contributing to differing types of grip strength Please justify why such exercises would be beneficial and put them into a practical scenario (training for sport, rehabilitation, bodybuilding, anti-aging..... etc). You may select exercises that primarily target other joints and muscle groups as long as they still provide sufficient enough stimulus to the forearm, wrist, and hand to improve grip strength

Fred and Mary were working in the library and were asked to shift textbooks from one shelf to another. Fred asked Mary to hold out her hands so he could stack several books on her arms to carry multiple books at once. Fred noticed when he placed a textbook on Mary’s arms they would extend downward slightly for a moment and then return quickly to the original position, this happened with each additional textbook he added. Mary was surprised by this as she didn’t feel as if she was voluntarily restoring her arm position. When Fred placed a 5th very heavy textbook onto the stack in Mary’s arms her arms relaxed and all the text books fell to the floor, Mary insisted she didn’t drop the books purposefully but did feel the load was becoming too heavy for her to maintain her arm position.
1a) Which reflex is first being elicited as Fred adds each book to Mary’s arms to enable Mary to maintain her arm position? Provide a description of this neural reflex pathway, including the stimulus, receptor, neural pathway, effector and response. You may use a diagram if you wish.
1b) As Fred added the 5th textbook the increased load caused Mary’s arms to relax. Which sensory receptor was activated here and what is this detecting in the muscle? How does this result in Mary dropping the books?

An elderly relative or friend is worried about an upcoming hip replacement surgery. They aren't very internet savvy, nor do they trust "all that technology stuff." Plus, "this surgeon doesn't know about all my other health issues and medications like my doctor do." Describe the person you are helping through this situation: what specific topics would you discuss with them with regards to technology in medicine to ease their worries? How would you help them learn about the risks and benefits of the procedure, how the procedure is done, and how their recovery will be handled?
