‘Burn out’ is often caused by:
  1. Training at too high a level of effort for too long.
  2. Eating too much before a class.
  3. Participating in too many different types of activities.
  4. Not drinking enough during a class.
Explanation
Answer: A - ‘Burn out’ is often caused by training at too high a level of effort for too long. Training too hard, or too often, without allowing for sufficient periods of rest and recovery, can lead to fatigue and a loss of motivation. Participants should be encouraged to work at a level of effort that is challenging but which can be maintained throughout a class, and to ensure they allow time for recovery between classes. Adding variety to the types of training, such as swapping one spin class a week to join a running group, can help prevent burn out by engaging different muscles or working on a different type of fitness.
