 * 4) In a "curling" motion, have the student raise and lower the weights until his / her arms get tired.
 * 5) Repeat steps 2-4 for each member of the group.
 * 6) Record the data for each member of the group.
 * 7) Have the first person stand as straight as possible near a wall.
 * 8) Have the student hold the weights with his / her dominant arm bent near the ear.
 * 9) In a motion that mimics throwing, have the student extend the weights above his / her head until the dominant arm gets tired.
