Question 8 • Fall 24 HS Physical Education

Which of the following is NOT a recommended change in physical activity for aging individuals?

Answer
A
taking a longer time to warm up and cool down
B
being cautious about exercising in extreme conditions
C
using less weight, but adding repetitions
D
participating only in cardiovascular exercises

Explanation

Aging individuals are generally encouraged to stay active with a mix of cardiovascular, strength, and flexibility or balance exercises. Taking more time to warm up and cool down, being cautious in extreme conditions, and using lighter weights with more repetitions can all be sensible adjustments. Participating only in cardiovascular exercises leaves out other important types of activity, so that is not recommended.
