Are push ups cardiovascular exercise

Health
1 answer:
AnnZ [28]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

\boxed {\tt No}

Explanation:

Cardiovascular exercise examples are running, brisk walking, and bicycling. Cardiovascular exercise must meet three requirements:

  • Use major muscle groups
  • Be rhythmic
  • Maintained continuously

Push ups check off the first two, but it is usually difficult to maintain pushups continuously for five or more minutes.

Pushups are considered strength building exercises, not cardiovascular.

Which example best illustrates the maintenance stage of behavior change?
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Joel tries to go running with his friend Sam at least once a week, but hopes to start running more.

Explanation:

The question above is related to "The Stages of Change."

First Stage: <em>Precontemplation</em>

Second Stage: <em>Contemplation</em>

Third Stage:<em> </em><em>Determination</em>

Fourth Stage: <em>Action</em>

Fifth Stage: <em>Maintenance</em>

Sixth Stage: <em>Recurrence</em>

The behavior showing maintenance is on the fifth stage. The person in this scenario has already achieved his goal to change. All he/she has to do is to maintain the behavior by <em>developing the new skill. </em>

Among the choices above, i<u>t is only Joel who is showing such behavior because</u><em><u> he is trying to develop his newfound skill of running by anticipating to run more in the future</u></em><u>.</u> This will allow him to prevent the occurrence of <em>"relapse." </em>It was also stated that he's already been running once a week with his friend, which means he has finally incorporated the change into his life.
