The literature review builds on the annotated bibliography. For the topic you chose for your annotated bibliography in Module 2, complete the following:
- Go through your annotated bibliography.
- Based on the information presented in your annotated bibliography sources (and others if needed), define a problem statement that, in your opinion, would be useful and practical for you to investigate.
- Organize your sources by sorting and classifying their findings in a meaningful way, always considering your original topic and problem.
- Write a literature review that would seem to offer the greatest potential for developing a good theoretical framework, using seven to ten references. All of these can be from your annotated bibliography, or you can use others in addition to those in your annotated bibliography.
- Develop the theoretical framework incorporating its basic functions as discussed in the text.
- Generate a set of testable hypotheses based on your research question and the theoretical framework.
Your report must contain the sections outlined below. APA formatting standards must be followed throughout. The paper does not have to be lengthy; perhaps 750 to 1500 words. The introduction, research question, and hypothesis statement sections should be short and succinct. Most of the word count in your report will be in the literature review and theoretical framework sections.
Introduction
In this section, give a clear and concise statement of the problem. Briefly indicate why it is a problem, why you selected it, and why it is important to solve the problem. Use references as necessary to support your arguments.
Literature Review
This should be one of the longer sections in your report. It should summarize other work related to the problem you identified. It should identify important variables and document significant findings from earlier research.
Research Question
This should be a brief section with a clear and concise statement of your question. It should be clear to the reader that your question is a logical outgrowth of previous research as summarized in your literature review.
Theoretical Framework
This section applies to deductive research. It should be one of the longer sections in your report.
Hypotheses
This brief section should contain a clear and concise statement of your hypothesis or hypotheses. The hypotheses should be a logical outgrowth of the theoretical framework.
References
Your report must contain a reference section that includes all sources in your paper. References must be in APA format.

This journal has focused on the different forms of exercise which cut across from the ground walking to the jogging exercise, treadmill jogging as well as the elliptical. This helps to explain the different ways that one can use to lose weight as well as how fast that can happen. The research was used on different people to see the effects of exercise on the loss of weight. The research has to make sure the exercise cannot lead to complications and hence made sure the participants are almost the same average weight. The data is recorded and it shows the group of the jogger lost averagely two kilograms, compared to running which does not burn as more fats as jogging. This recommended the jogging exercise as the most suitable exercise to lose weight compared to running.
Pickering, T. G. (1979). Jogging, marathon running and the heart. The American journal of medicine, 66(5), 717-719.
This journal has been used by Pickering as the author to examine the different cults that are used by the American people in the hopes that they will help them to lose weight as well as help them in the situation of getting heart diseases that are related to being overweight. According to the author of the journal, the more the activities of the works that one does, then the higher the chances of buying more and more calories from their bodies. The reason behind this is because they need more energy to do their exercise, this means they are less likely to make or lose calories when they are jogging the same time and the distance and it depends on the weight they have. Running tires one than jogging a hence less distance will need to be covered. The author has concluded jogging continuously will make someone lose more weight than running and hence reduction of the chances of heart diseases.

The journal has focused more on the effects of running on the weight and what happens when one is running and how they lose weight. The author has covered the impact of running in a marathon as the athletes run for forty-two kilometers for slightly above two hours’ time. The author has shown the impacts of breathing on better breathing and oxygen that makes the body have elevated rates of respiration. This makes the body have a better food synthesizing process that releases the energy for the body. Other than just breaking down the glucose the fats are broke down and make the body lose weight in a great percentage. Other than the weight, the author has explained water and salts are lost from the body during running the body temperature is raised and introduces the need for the body to cool down and hence the body used the excess water and the fats to cool the body down.

The source has been used by the author to expound on the issue of weight loss brought about by running and jogging. It has been used to compare the two exercises in depth. The journal has been used to show the guide of the entire process of jogging exercise and how it can help us lose weight. The issue of losing weight is not something that the individual should focus on but should just take their time in the exercise and the results will be evident after some time. The article states jogging and running are both good exercises and they can make some lose up to 1500 calories when they do it for a mile? The author has recommended jogging as the best was to help lose weight than running. The article has further discussed the weight loss through running and joining it with jogging this has been proved to be very tedious since it has to be done for long-distance. More so, the author states even the trained athletes can run for miles and end up starving themselves.

When one decides to use the weight lifting exercise to lose weight then they have to involve the brain which sends the messages to the muscle and the nerves. The author has used the article to expound on the process that takes place when the muscle is moving they stimulate blood transportation as the rhythmic contraction makes the muscle to be free. When the individual is doing exercise through weights, the author has explained the need to focus on the exercise other than the results. More so, aerobic weight training is the process that enhances the fiber and the myoglobin which all allows the oxygen to be moved to the muscles. There are higher chances that one will be able to fight muscle diseases and the other case of muscle pull that occurs in sportsmen.

Throughout the life of the lifter the muscle is always building up, the author has used the journal to explain the dismantling of the bones and the tissues that are involved. The bones are made of different elements that determine how one will be able to go through the exercise effectively. Calcium, for instance, can be used for different roles and in the bones. The bones at infancy are different from the mature people, the bone density helps to make the weight lifting exercise better and improved. This helps to offer the resistance of the individual from getting bruises as well as get along with the other normal activities. The healthy bones are able to protect the other internal organs. The author has explained how healthy bones can be used to shield the person against osteoporosis as it affects the bone’s energy.
Myers, A. M., Beam, N. W., & Fakhoury, J. D. (2017). Resistance training for children and adolescents. Translational pediatrics, 6(3), 137.
The journal has addressed the issue of children who are becoming more into an exercise in the schools or even in the community. The attention has been stated to be given onto the proper training as well as conditioning them to maximize the performance which also stimulates athletic performance. The author has addressed the issue of resistance training (RT) which is the methodology to make sure there is optimal performance through proper training. The proper training amount the children are associated with the benefits they have to improve their strength and lower the rates of the injuries they get. This helps to give them the chance to improve and give them the interest to exercise in the future.
