Question 161 • Lifetime Fitness (full year) EL2083 A

In order to prevent injury during your weight-training session, it is necessary to __________.

Answer

do performance testing prior to setting up your workout routine, stretch before and after each workout, get the proper amount of rest and nutrition, and modify your workout as needed

have your friend check your workout to be sure it is well-designed, exercise only three days a week, and allow for adequate rest between workouts

never change your workout routine, stretch before and after each workout, allow time to warm up and cool down, and adjust your form as needed

use slow bouncing movements to warm up and stretch before each workout, follow a plan that includes proper sets and repetitions, adjust your workout and form as needed, and workout every day

Explanation

Preventing injury involves preparing appropriately and responding to your body’s needs. Choice A includes performance testing before planning, stretching, adequate rest and nutrition, and modifying the workout as needed. Choice C is tempting because it includes warming up and adjusting form, but never changing a routine is not a safe general rule. Slow bouncing stretches and working out every day, as in D, can also increase injury risk.
