What age group of fitness clients best benefits from a program that specifically includes strength and balance training?
  1. Children
  2. Adolescents
  3. Adults
  4. Older adults
Explanation
Answer: D - Older adults best benefit from a program that includes strength and balance training. The increased propensity towards falls in older age may cause some older adults to have a fear of falling. Helping them to maintain their strength and balance can help to calm these fears emotionally and also physically improve their chances of not having a fall or not becoming injured if a fall does occur.
