Explanation:

• Option A: Performance testing to design the routine, stretching, rest, nutrition, and modifying workouts are all evidence - based injury - prevention strategies for weight training.
• Option B: Having a friend check the workout is not a reliable method (friends may not be experts), and exercising only three days a week is not a necessary injury - prevention measure in itself.
• Option C: Never changing the workout routine is incorrect as the body adapts and a non - changing routine can lead to overuse injuries or plateaus, and not adjusting the routine goes against good training practices.
• Option D: Slow bouncing movements for warming up are not recommended (they can cause injury), and working out every day can lead to overtraining and injury.

Answer:

A. 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
