Hypokinetic Disease Project

Evidence of Work

Our assignment was to research a disease that could be caused by lack of or insufficient exercise. We chose cancer, because that is a disease that affects far too many people, can be difficult to cure, and has many physical and emotional implications. Cancer is a truly devastating disease, and could be preventable by sufficient exercise. This is why we chose to research it.
