The ‘Rocking Tread’ technique is best used to:
  1. Help participants who are mainly road cyclists.

  4. Help tired participants complete a climb section.
Explanation
Answer: C- ‘The Rocking Tread’ technique is best used to help participants develop the large muscle groups of the torso and legs. It is an effective way to allow participants to increase resistance and engage the large muscles of the lower back, buttocks, and quadriceps. The shoulders and arms work for balance and are not active in the movement, as it is the combination of body weight and downward force that provides the power for the exercise.
