a. appropriate behavior because they are learning about how to make the workout better
b. inappropriate behavior because they are no longer watching you all the time
c. appropriate behavior because they remained in the gym for your workout
d. inappropriate behavior because they should not be so close to you while you are trying to work out

please select the best answer from the choices provided.

○ a
○ b
○ c
○ d

Explanation:

A spotter's main role during a workout is to closely monitor the person working out to ensure safety (e.g., in case of failure during a lift). If the spotter is discussing with a trainer and not watching the person all the time, they are not fulfilling their safety - related duty. Option A is incorrect because the spotter's primary role isn't to learn new exercises during the workout but to ensure safety. Option C is wrong as remaining in the gym doesn't mean they are fulfilling their spotter role. Option D is incorrect as the issue isn't about proximity but about not watching for safety. So the correct answer is B as the spotter's behavior is inappropriate because they are not watching the person working out all the time.

Answer:

B. inappropriate behavior because they are no longer watching you all the time
