Question

overtraining is:

a. the only way to get really good at a sport.

b. only a problem for elite athletes.

c. okay if you dont overdo it.

d. risky because you can get sick or hurt.

Explanation:

• Option A: Overtraining is not the only way to excel in a sport; proper training, rest, and recovery are also essential.
• Option B: Overtraining can affect any athlete, not just elite ones, as any level of athlete can push their body too hard without adequate recovery.
• Option C: Overtraining, by definition, means pushing beyond what is healthy, so it's not "okay" even if one tries to "not overdo it"—the concept of overtraining itself implies overdoing.
• Option D: Overtraining stresses the body, weakening the immune system and increasing the risk of injuries, making it risky as it can lead to sickness or harm.

Answer:

D. risky because you can get sick or hurt.
