Today i met with my mentor for the first time. Yea its a little late but i had no time due to my extra curricular activities and other responsiblities. My mentor is the sports medicine trainer and physical therapist at Skyline College. We started off by introducing each other and i gave him a background of the project. After we got that out of the way he went to attend his patients, the student athletes of Skyline. He first started with my girlfirend by stretching her out. While he was doing so, he was explaining to me what her problem was. I turns out she has Pateller Tendonitis, this means that her knee cap has too much friction with the otherbones in the knee which tends to cause a lot of pain. Throughout the whole day he was going around attending other students and explaining their problem. After the day ended, we came to an agreement that since i have to do a physical project on this, i was going to concentrate mainly on the knee. He told me to go home and study the knee bones and joints for an hour. This day in general i learned so much about the body and it was just my first day.
Total time: 6 hours.
