Question

select the correct answer. why should you include weight training as part of your exercise routine? i. to increase muscle mass ii. to increase bone density iii. to increase flexibility a. only i b. only ii c. i and iii d. i, ii, and iii

Explanation:

• Weight training (resistance training) stimulates muscle growth, so it helps increase muscle mass (I is correct).
• It also places stress on bones, which promotes bone remodeling and increases bone density (II is correct).
• While weight training can have some impact on flexibility, it is not the primary focus for increasing flexibility (unlike activities like stretching or yoga), but it still contributes to overall flexibility to some extent. So I, II, and III are all valid reasons to include weight training in an exercise routine.

Answer:

D. I, II, and III
