Question

List the following four activities in the order they would go in the physical activity pyramid from top to bottom.

Answer 1

The order of the four activities in the physical activity pyramid from top to bottom would be:

1. Homework

2. Weight training

3. Soccer practice

4. Walking 30 minutes to school

The physical activity pyramid lists the least to most recommended activity options from top to bottom (refer to the attached image). Thus, homework would be on top, since, it involves sitting. Next would be weight training, since it is a strength activity, followed by soccer (a recreational activity), and finally, walking for 30 minutes.

Answer 2

If we we were to list soccer practice, homework, walking for 30 minutes, and weight training into a pyramid from top to bottom, where we would take in account the amount of stress each of these have on our body, we would most likely put weight lifting on top, followed by soccer practice and then walking for 30 minutes with homework being on the bottom.
