Question

Arrange the steps of interval training session in a sequential order from first to last:
(A) Short Break
(B) Warm-up
(C) Resume similar intensity running
(D) Fast pace running where heart goes up to 180 beats per minute
(E) Heart beat goes down to 120-130 beats per minute
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

• A. (D), (E), (C), (A), (B)
• B. (C), (A), (B), (E), (D)
• C. (A), (B), (C), (D), (E)
• D. (B), (D), (A), (E), (C)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

Structuring an interval training session requires a specific activity sequence. The correct order is as follows:

1. Warm-up: Initiate with a warm-up to ready the body for elevated exertion, gradually increasing heart rate and muscle temperature.
2. High-Intensity Run: Engage in a fast-paced run designed to significantly elevate the heart rate to 180 beats per minute.
3. Recovery Period: Implement a brief rest phase to allow the body a short period of recovery post-intense effort.
4. Heart Rate Reduction: During this phase, facilitate a decrease in heart rate to 120-130 beats per minute, promoting recovery.
5. Return to Intensity: Subsequently, resume running at a similar intensity to sustain endurance and pacing abilities.

Therefore, the correct sequence is (D): (B), (D), (A), (E), (C).
