A runner's torso should be completely stretched and lean slightly forward when running.

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The torso of a runner should be fully stretched and lean slightly forward while running. This positions the body's center of gravity farther forward, which facilitates thrust and may even decrease the strain on the knee joint.

Running with your body slightly bent forward is a way to improve the biomechanics of running. When we do this, we position the body's center of gravity farther, which facilitates thrust and may even lessen the strain on the knee joint. Think of a shooting practice: when you will stop the movement, ie stop it, your body will lean backwards. So a forward bend does the opposite, helps speed up.

True. Without stretching, your torso can receive muscle cramps and/or strains. When running, the torso should be slightly forward to resist the air resistance and keep the body at an equilibrium with the surrounding forces.

How much do I need to increase my calorie intake?
DIA [1.3K]

Answer: d) No increase is needed during the first trimester, but consume an additional 350 – 450 Kcal per day during the second and third trimesters.

Explanation:

The women in pregnancy require a calorie intake of about 2,200-2,900 Kcal per day. The gradual increase occurs as time passes and required for the growth of the baby.

In the first trimester, the requirement for extra calories does not increase. But in the second trimester, the requirement for additional calories increases by 340 Kcal calories. By the third trimester, the calorie intake becomes 450 Kcal each day.  

Additional calorie demand can be fulfilled by nutrient-dense foods like protein, low fat and fat-free dairy products, fruits and vegetables. Fried food, sweets, and soda drinks must be avoided.
