Question

how often does the american college of sports medicine recommend strength training?
a. two to three nonconsecutive days per week
b. at least an hour per day
c. enough to feel tightness
d. five to seven days per week

Explanation:

The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) recommends strength training two to three nonconsecutive days per week to allow for recovery between sessions. Option a matches this recommendation. Option b (at least an hour per day) is incorrect as ACSM doesn't recommend a daily hour - long strength training. Option c (enough to feel tightness) is not a standard ACSM recommendation for frequency. Option d (five to seven days per week) is too frequent as it doesn't allow proper recovery.

Answer:

a. Two to three nonconsecutive days per week
