Question

if you had a 30 - pound barbell at home and you wanted to compare your muscular endurance to your younger brothers, which method would be the best to use? a. absolute method b. maxing out c. prediction of 1 percent rm d. fixed percentage of 1 max rm please select the best answer from the choices provided.

Explanation:

The absolute method of comparing muscular endurance involves using a set weight (in this case, the 30 - pound barbell) and seeing how many repetitions each person can perform. Maxing out refers to finding the maximum weight a person can lift once. Prediction of 1 percent RM and fixed percentage of 1 max RM are more related to estimating or using a percentage of one's one - repetition maximum weight, which is not the most straightforward for a simple comparison with a set weight at home. The absolute method is the best for a simple head - to - head comparison of muscular endurance with a given weight.

Answer:

A. absolute method
