When planning a class, which of the following choices should not be an aim of the warm up?
  1. Increase breathing and heart rate and respiratory rate.
  2. Warm up and prepare the muscles (exercise specific).
  3. Increase core temperature.
  4. High cadence.
Explanation
Answer: D - When planning a class, high cadence should not be an aim of the warm up. The warm up for a spin class should be focused on preparing the body for the effort of the main set. The main set might include some cadence variation, but to attempt sprints or very high cadence without a comprehensive warm up would increase the likelihood of injury.
