Question

Xavier has been using a workout app to track his progress at the gym. Lately, he has found that his average heart rate during aerobic workouts is 129. His lowest target heart rate is 137. Which of the following will help him get the most productive workout, based on the information he has gathered?


Do anaerobic workouts only
Do fewer aerobic workouts
Increase the intensity of cardiovascular workouts
Decrease the intensity of cardiovascular workouts

Answer 1

The third option: Increase the intensity of cardiovascular workouts, is the right one. we know this because the rest of the options don't give the right fit. anaerobic workout is a short burst of energy, so it wouldn't be a good fit. Doing fewer aerobic workouts would lower it even more. Decreasing intensity of a cardiovascular workout would also cause a larger decrease. so it is the third option. Hope this helps a lot.
