A. increase the incline of the elliptical

B. decrease the incline of the elliptical

C. increase the duration of his workout

D. decrease the duration of his workout

Answer:

B. decrease the incline of the elliptical

Explanation:

Elliptical machines are fitness machines which are usually easy to use and can be easily maintained and controlled.

The machines are connected with the heart rate monitor which can count the heartbeat per minute and show them. These elliptical machines are mostly prefered by the people who have problems in their knees, hips and elbows and others.

In the given question, the person is using the elliptical walking machine which is set in an inclined position. The heart rate is recorded at 178 beats per minute and to decrease the heart rate, the inclination of the machine must be reduced. This decrease in inclination uses less power consumption therefore the heartbeat can be lowered.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
