An effective tool to measure cardiovascular fitness development is:
  1. Body temperature during exercise.
  2. Length of time a participant can maintain during a section of a class.
  3. Average heart rate during a spin class.
  4. Heart rate recovery rate after a workout.
Explanation
Answer: D - An effective tool to measure cardiovascular fitness development is heart rate recovery rate after a workout. The participants can measure how fast (in beats slowed per minute as ‘Working Recovery Heart Rate’ or WRHR) his or her heart rate returns to resting levels after a workout, usually expressed in rate per minute of recovery. As cardiovascular fitness improves, the heart rate will recover more quickly, regardless of the maximum level reached. Average heart rate during a class is not an effective measure, and class structures will vary.
