Explanation
Answer: C- The primary benefit of periodization in planning a spin class program is to provide a structure for incremental improvements in strength and fitness. Periodization takes into account that fitness gains are a function of incremental development, rest, and recovery. A structured, periodized training plan will allow for continuous fitness development, developing intensity and endurance, prevent over-adaptation, and prevent injury by including active recovery sessions.
