Question

Wendy plans to run her first 5k in two months, and she needs to prepare. She has a busy schedule, though, and needs to select the best activity for her heart health. Which activity should Wendy pick?

A) Ten push-ups and five sit-ups
B) Ten minutes of swimming
C) Twenty-five minutes of yoga and 10 push-ups
D) Twenty-five minutes of zumba

Answer 1

Answer: D) Twenty-five minute of zumba

Answer 2

Wendy plans to run her first 5km in two months. Running is a cardio activity and in order to be prepared she should impove her cardio capacity (do cardio workouts). Zumba is a dance fitness program and it is a aerobic activity. It is a full body workout that will help Wendy to achieve her goal and run 5km in two months. Push-ups and sit-ups on the other hand are strength activities that will not improve her aerobic capacity such as zumba.
