If a participant experiences pain in a particular muscle during the workout:
  1. Stretching should be carried out on the muscle after the workout.
  2. Stretching should be carried out on the muscle, but on no other body parts.
  3. The participant should be advised to stop, ice the injured area, and seek medical attention as appropriate.

Explanation
Answer: C - If a participant experiences pain in a particular muscle during the workout, the participant should be advised to stop, ice the injured area, and seek medical attention as appropriate. In general, stretching should not be carried out on an injured area in order to reduce the risk of compounding the injury. Medically qualified personnel (e.g. a physiotherapist) may subsequently recommend stretching. However, participants injured during class should not be encouraged to stretch the affected area without first seeking professional medical advice.
