Question

1. which of the following is not an example of liss exercise?

running sprints
swimming
cycling
walking

1. what is a key characteristic of liss exercises regarding intensity?

high intensity bursts
fluctuating intensity levels
low to moderate intensity throughout

1. what is an advantage of liss exercises over high - intensity workouts?

higher calorie burn during workout
greater muscle building potential
reduced risk of injury
shorter workout duration

Explanation:

• Question 4: LISS (Low - Intensity Steady - State) exercises are characterized by a low to moderate intensity level maintained over a relatively long period. Running sprints is a high - intensity exercise, while swimming, cycling, and walking (at a LISS - appropriate pace) are LISS exercises.
• Question 5: By definition, LISS exercises have a low to moderate intensity throughout the workout. High - intensity bursts are more associated with HIIT (High - Intensity Interval Training), and fluctuating intensity levels are not the key characteristic of LISS.
• Question 6: Since LISS exercises have a lower intensity, there is less stress on the body's musculoskeletal system, reducing the risk of injury. High - intensity workouts may burn more calories during the workout (but LISS may have a more sustained calorie burn over a longer time in some cases), high - intensity workouts often have greater muscle - building potential (due to the stress placed on muscles), and high - intensity workouts typically have a shorter duration compared to LISS (which can last for an hour or more).

Answer:

1. Running sprints
2. Low to moderate intensity throughout
3. Reduced risk of injury
