1. how do rows benefit the body in functional fitness?

by strengthening the back, shoulders, and arms
by improving cardiovascular health
by increasing flexibility
by enhancing balance and stability

Explanation:

• Question 4: Lunges primarily work the lower body (legs and hips) and require balance. Grip strength is more related to hand - focused exercises. Cardiovascular endurance is mainly improved by activities like running. Chest and shoulders are not the main focus of lunges.
• Question 5: Push - ups engage the chest, shoulders, triceps, and core muscles. They are not mainly for balance (which is more of a single - leg or stability ball exercise focus), grip strength (hand - related), or leg power (lower - body exercises).
• Question 6: Rows (like bent - over rows or cable rows) target the back, shoulders, and arms. Cardiovascular health is improved by aerobic activities. Flexibility is from stretching. Balance and stability are more associated with exercises that challenge the body's equilibrium like standing on one leg.

Answer:

1. Improving balance and strengthening the legs and hips
2. To strengthen the chest, shoulders, triceps, and core
3. By strengthening the back, shoulders, and arms
