| Abstract | The purpose of this project was to determine if there is a correlation between intense exercise and the frequency and duration of URTI's. The hypothesis stated that if adolescents exercised frequently, their URTI frequency and duration would be higher. There is reason to hypothesize this as intense exercise is shown to have depressing effects on the immune system. |
