Due: Oct 2, 2024 by 11:59pm

Objective:

DOMS, aka delayed onset muscle soreness, is pain and stiffness felt in muscles after unaccustomed and/or strenuous exercise. Muscle soreness may be due to a variety of factors, but one of the most common is the sub-cellular damage (and the associated inflammation) that becomes apparent 1 or 2 days after exercise.

Directions for this Assignment:

The infographic will grab attention by including/answering all of the following questions. You will use headlines for the questions, answer the questions in your own words and include a few pictures.

1) What happens to muscles when you work-out?

2) Explain DOMS. What is it?

3) What is the relation of DOMS to eccentric and concentric muscle contractions?

4) What are some causes of DOMS? How do you prevent DOMS?

5) Is muscle soreness a good indicator of a good workout? Is it a good indicator of muscle hypertrophy?

You can choose to do a virtual infographic or one on poster paper. All the information has to fit on ONE page (not slides)
