The exercises are: flat bench press, behind the neck shoulder military press, seated dumbbell curls, dips, squats, calf raises and leg curls. In order to determine how much strength is gained, an initial strength test in each exercise will be evaluated and recorded. A potential confounding variable is the consumption of certain foods and vitamins that may aid in the overall performance of the work out. Another is the amount of exerted energy prior to the workout. Measures to control the effects of the confounding variables are to have the all the subjects work-out at 6: 00 am, assuming that they are fully rested, and to place all of the subjects on the same diet in accordance to each individuals weight.
Procedures The subjects will be chosen randomly from the population. The subjects will be placed in two groups. The experimental group, those working-out under the influence of marijuana, will be named “Group Mary-Jane.” The control group, those working-out without the aid of marijuana, will be named “Group Clark Kent.” The independent variable will be the same for all those in the experimental group, that is. 5 grams of “krypton” marijuana will be smoked through a Pyrex pipe per subject fifteen minutes prior to performing the specific exercises. Each subject will vary in weight and size; therefore, if the dosage is too high it will be lowered. 1 until suitable for each subject.
The dependent variable will be measured at the end of a four-week period, where each subject will perform the same initial strength tests. The percentage of strength gained through each exercise will be measured and calculated with the original evaluation. Ethical Considerations All of the subjects in Group “Mary-Jane” will be aware that the continual and abusive use of marijuana may detrimental to their health. They will be allowed to drop out of the experiment whenever they so please.

At no time will either group of subjects be deceived about the physical, or any other risks as a result of this research. Evaluation The most challenging part of this assignment for me was choosing a hypothesis. I wanted to pick a hypothesis that I believed would raise some controversy and obtain followers of the idea at the same time. My hypothesis may not be taken seriously, but I strongly believe that marijuana use, under non-abusive conditions, can be a positive medicinal and recreational drug. The least challenging part of this assignment was the usage of proper grammar and sentence structure. Though my grammar and sentence structure may not be perfect, I feel that all of the other aspects of this assignment dealt with a great deal of thinking and reasoning.
The practicing and information that Mrs. Haynes gave me was the most helpful factor in completing this assignment.
