The American College of Sports Medicine has suggested use of a cardiovascular disease risk-factor assessment. Which of the following is the BEST example of age/gender group(s) that should be assessed?
Answer: C - The American College of Sports Medicine’s cardiovascular disease risk-factor assessment is designed for men over 45 and women over 55. Whenever it is determined that a potential participant is classified as “high risk” (through assessment of age, gender, risk factors, and symptom or disease presence), the Group Fitness Instructor should refer the participant to his or her medical practitioner prior to participation in an exercise class.
