Question

which patient statement regarding physical activity indicates to the nurse that further teaching is needed?
\i know that metabolism declines in old age, so if do not exercise, i will get fatter.\
\the activity recommendations for older adults are the same as for middle - aged people.\
\if i exercise every day, i can basically stop the aging process altogether.\
\i am pretty sedentary, so getting my heart rate up for 10 minutes is all i want to try.\

Explanation:

Aging is a natural biological process that cannot be completely stopped by exercise. While exercise has many benefits for health and can slow some aspects of aging - related decline, it cannot halt the aging process altogether. The other statements have some truth or are reasonable starting - points for physical activity.

Answer:

C. "If I exercise every day, I can basically stop the aging process altogether."
