please select the best answer from the choices provided.
a
b
c
d

Explanation:

Intense weight training primarily focuses on increasing the ability of muscles to exert force, which is muscular strength. Flexibility is improved by stretching, cardiorespiratory fitness by aerobic exercises, and muscular endurance by activities with repeated muscle contractions over time (not intense weight training focused on force). So intense weight training most significantly improves muscular strength.

Answer:

C. muscular strength
