Mentor blog 3 (5hrs), Total=10 hrs

Today I met with my mentor once again and got to review each and every one of the machinery we previously covered last week, only this time we took our time reviewing so I actually got to really understand what they are, do, and how helpful they are to a person. After the first 3 hours, there were people who came inside the center so I also got to see how hands what they do to improve their physical ability. 

Each person trying to recover to their original athletic performance was helped by another physical to help them move their body in a certain way. It was interesting because usually they do not allow visitors shadow them when they ste goin through physical therapy. But they were interested in my topic so they were happy to have my observe what they were doing. 

What I learned new and was also interesting was that as I shadowed the physical therapist, I noticed the same structure over and over which my mentor told me it was to shape their body to get used to moving in that direction. 

In total, I spent a total of 5 hours with me total. The next time I will meet my mentor will be sometime in the end of the week.
