Resolution:

A Crash Course on Creativity

Professor Tina Seelig, Stanford University

Student: Paulo Pedrozo

HOME BODYBUILDING

To accomplish the task called "connect and combine” the student read the article "Sport" on

Wikipedia.

There he discovered that what characterizes sport is competitive and progressive development of

skills of those who practice individually or collectively.

Then the student searched for "household items" in Google Images.

From this research the student has obtained the following images, with their respective URLs of web

pages where they appear:

With a new web search made by Google, the student found that "house bodybuilding" is a

completely new sport.

So the student discovered that can be used a sofa and a small table as household items to practice

"home bodybuilding."

The sport can be precisely defined as the practice of bodybuilding using household items.

With relevance to both household items whose photographs were inserted above the sofa could be

used as well:

to support the weight of the practitioner with outstretched arms resting on the couch, flexing and

extending his arms at the same time in order to raise and lower his chest and abdomen, thereby

strengthening his muscles and abdominal menial.

The long table could be used for the practitioner on it lie with belly up, raising and lowering his head,

thorax and abdomen.

With the practice of "HOME BODYBUILDING" the practitioner can develop their physical skills at

home, even in cases where there is no way to attend a fitness.

Developing physical skills, could compete with other practitioners.
