A client has hypertension. All of the following conditions indicate that adjustments must be made to this client’s workout, EXCEPT:
  1. Any other vascular conditions
  2. Asthma, COPD or otherwise temporarily debilitated lung function
  3. Musculoskeletal conditions
  4. Neurological disorders
Explanation
Answer: B - All of the above conditions, when comorbid with hypertension, necessitate adjusted workouts, except for asthma, COPD or otherwise temporarily debilitated lung function. Certainly these conditions will affect the client’s ability to reach more intense levels of cardiovascular intensity, but they do not specifically restrict the workout’s activities.
