- Select all true statements: Lactate threshold and OBLA are referring to the same thing. VO2max is the single best indicator for cardiorespiratory fitness and overall race performance when comparing two high-level athletes. For predicting success in endurance performance, the best indicators, in order of importance, are VO2max, lactate threshold, exercise effeciency, and muscle fiber type. VO2max is the single best indicator for cardiorespiratory fitness and overall race performance.arrow_forwardIf someone specifically wanted to burn a lot of fat (not necessarily total calories), what type of exercise should they do? High-intensity exercise for 10 to 15 minutes O High-intensity exercise for less than 10 minutes Walking for 5 minutes O Low- to moderate-intensity exercise for 30 to 60 minutesarrow_forwardAn otherwise healthy 24-year-old male has presented at your office with recent symptoms of a burning pain when urinating. The subject has recently decided to begin bodybuilding as a way to lose some of the weight he gained eating a poor diet in college. The subject weight trains 6 days each week, a drastic change from his previous exercise habit of a 1-hour jog or run once a week. His intense weight training requires careful monitoring of food and liquid intake. The subject describes his hew diet as healthy, with a large focus on lean chicken breast, hard-boiled eggs, and beans. He is careful not to overeat. He also says that he closely monitors his water intake and forces himself to drink the recommended eight glasses of water each day, no more and no less. a.
