Lactate threshold:
  1. Is only a concern for serious athletes.
  2. Is genetic and cannot be changed by spinning.
  3. Is a fundamental measure of fitness that can be improved.
  4. Is not affected by spinning classes, only by weight training and similar activities.
Explanation
Answer: C - Lactate threshold is a fundamental measure of fitness that can be improved. Instructors should ensure their classes are designed to improve lactate threshold through technique like progressive overload. Increasing lactate threshold is an effective measure of participants’ fitness gains, and will allow them to work increasingly harder as their fitness develops.
