Group 4- Sport Science. (First Meeting)

In this activity, Students from different areas of science such as chemistry, biology and physics were divided into groups of four. The main topic of the project was Sport science, so in order to present this topic, we brainstormed ideas to work on in the future. Because most of my group are biology and chemistry students, we decided to concentrate in those subjects instead of physics. We came up with many ideas for our project, but there was one that we decided to do as it was the most interesting one, the effect of energy drinks in sports and other physical activities. For this projct to be a success we need the consent of the physical education teachers and the principals and we need volunteers that would like to participate in the experiment.

• Redbull
• Monster
• Lucozade
• Gatorade
• Mountain Dew
• 5 Hour energy drink
• Control Drink

• Sprinting (100 meters)
• Jumping (Long and High jump)
