Question

in order to prevent injury during your weight - training session, it is necessary to ______.
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
b. 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
c. 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
d. 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:

• Option A: Performance testing before workout, stretching, proper rest/nutrition, and modifying workout are all valid injury - prevention methods in weight - training.
• Option B: Having a friend check the workout is not a reliable way to ensure a well - designed workout, and restricting to three days a week is not a necessary injury - prevention measure (the frequency depends on individual fitness levels and goals).
• Option C: Never changing the workout routine is incorrect as the body adapts, and the routine may need to be progressed or modified to avoid plateaus and overuse injuries.
• Option D: Slow bouncing movements during warm - up can lead to injury, and working out every day without proper rest can cause 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
