ESLR Blog
The two ESLRs I think i fulfilled are effective user of technology and life-long learner. I'm an effective user of technology because I beginning to understand how to use Logger Pro to save and organize data and I'm starting to use an EKG with the logger pro to record the movements of the heart. I'm a life-long learner because I've applied techniques I've learned at I-poly, like note taking, presentation skills, and working in groups, into some of my college classes.

- Who influenced you to follow a career in boxing?
- Who's your favorite boxer of all time? Why?
- What was something specific that he did that you admired?
- What are some of the things to remember that are important when fighting?
- Who are the boxers that you consider are good examples? Why?
- What are the traits a boxer should have?
- Is it important for a professional boxer to showcase themselves and try to impress the crowd?
- What is the best way for a boxer to showcase them self?
- Is the manager as important as the trainer when it comes to a professional career?

Science Fair Proposal
1. If the human body under goes some sort of shock, falling backwards for example, then the RR intervals on an EKG reading will be closer together.
2. Dependent: Heart rate and blood pressure
Independent: The initial shock
Control: How the shock is applied
3. My experiment has to do with activating the baroreflex. This is the reflex that controls your blood pressure. So maybe if a boxer allows himself to get hit a few times at the beginning of the fight, it will cause his blood pressure to increase and this will get blood into the places he needs it quicker and the adrenaline will take affect faster. This can help the boxer take control of the fight earlier because his body as already ready to fight even before the first round ends. My experiment can help give boxers tips on how to warm up and get their body to prepare for the fight. 4. I'll gather at least 22 people. I'll have them sit on a stool or chair. Then I'll hook the subject up to a sphygmomanometer and a heart rate monitor(or something like that) and tell them to relax. I'll record the "relaxed" values on the two monitors. Then I'll apply the initial shock, which is to make them almost fall backwards. Then record the "shocked" values on the monitors.

1. If the human body under goes some sort of shock, then its heart rate and blood pressure will go up.
2. Dependent: Heart rate and blood pressure
Independent: The initial shock
Control: How the shock is applied
3. There isn't really a direct connection between the experiment and my topic other than the fact that my topic is boxing and my experiment has a connection with being punched in boxing.

Self Reflection
- P, because I haven't really been doing anything above and beyond. I've only been doing what I've been told to do and I haven't missed any assignments.
- I think one of the things I've done well was improving my defense in sparring, because I've been working on improving it and I've finally polished it up.
- I would like to improve my stamina because I've only been able to last for about two minutes without being tired and that's not good enough.

Science Fair Proposal
- The brutality of a professional boxing match is directly proportional to the amount of people that watch the match.
- Dependent: Amount of people that watch
Independent: Brutality of the match
Control: Number of fights shown - The connection between my science fair project and and my EQ is that they both pertain to finding out what makes boxing attractive and how to attract more viewers.
- I will have 5 identical computers and line them up side by side. Each computer will display 5 different fights. Then I'll ask 22 people, one at a time, to choose the least interesting fight then eliminate the selected fight and ask them to choose the next least interesting fight and continue that until one fight is left. I'll also randomize the line-up of the fights to prevent bias toward the middle.
