Effects of Partial Body Cryotherapy on DOMS in Hamstrings of Elderly Adults
Isabel Eigenbauer
This poster discusses previous studies that tested different types of cryotherapy on delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) in younger populations. The methods explain a process in which elderly adults (65-85) would perform exercises to induce DOMS before undergoing one session of partial body cryotherapy (PBC). The participants' response to DOMS and cryotherapy was measured four times afterwards.

How Grip Strength and ROM Affect Wrist Injuries in Gymnast
Alin Gabriel Richard
Gymnasts for years have struggled to find relief for their wrist pain during a normal day at practice. This research study focuses on female adolescent athletes who have acute pain in their wrists ranging from mild to moderate pain. Increasing range of motion in the wrist along with increasing grip strength has shown to decrease overall wrist pain in acute scaphoid lunate ligament tears. The study will put gymnast through a 12-week intervention focusing strengthening grip strength and range of motion. The study hypothesizes that by improving both range of motions and grip strength will alleviate pain in female adolescent gymnast.

The Prevalence of the Female Athlete Triad in Division 1 Athletes
Kylie E. Ameres
The Female Athlete Triad (FAT) is characterized by three individualized disorders that are present at the same time. Low energy availability with or without disordered eating, amenorrhea, and osteoporosis are the three components that make up the Female Athlete Triad. Due to the competitive nature and extreme exercise expenditure of female athletes at the Division 1 level, it is likely that these females are at a higher risk of experiencing the components of the Female Athlete Triad.

Effects of Grip Width on Bench Press 1RM in College Males
Alan Bennett
The Bench Press is said to be the most important of all upper body exercises (Deaton, Ras, 2019). This exercise incorporates several of the muscles in the upper body and is included in training programs for several different sports and activities. The participants of this study were 30 college males, each with at least 1 year of previous training experience and no previous injuries or disabilities that would impair bench press performance. Each of the 30 participants were randomly assigned to 1 of three groups with 10 participants in each group: close grip bench press (100% shoulder width), moderate grip bench press (135% shoulder width), and wide grip bench press (170% shoulder width). This study assessed how grip width while performing this exercise effected strength over time. This was done through a pre-testing session, followed by a 6 week training period, and then a post-testing session. Participants performed a 1RM as a measure of upper body strength during each testing session and percent change was assessed. During the 6 week training protocol, participants trained 3 times per week with at least 48 hours between each session. During each training session, the participants followed a strict 15 minute warm-up protocol before starting the training protocol. The training protocol consisted of 3 sets or 6 repetitions of bench press, with each set’s weight changed to a weight where by the 6th repetition, the participant would reach momentary failure. The moderate grip bench press group was hypothesized to have the largest percent change over the duration of the study. Correlations and data analysis of the study were done using Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software. Statistically significant findings were given a P-value of .05 or less (P<.05).
