1. Your sister’s gynecologist just told her she is pregnant. Knowing you are
taking a college fitness/wellness course, she asks you for advice concerning
the fitness walking program she began 2 months ago to help her get back
into shape and lose a few pounds. Give her three or four tips.
I would recommend that my sister talk to her physician first since I am not a
professional. Some tips that I would give her is at least keep active with
some kind of exercise such as walking once a day if she could but do not
exceed. While exercising she should drink plenty of water to stay hydrated.
The last tip I would offer is to do what is comfortable for her, if she starts to
feel a certain exercise is too much she might want to switch to one that’s
more comforting on her body.
2. At dinner, two of your friends were debating whether to use a popular sports
drink to replace the sweat they expected to lose in the July 4th 12-mile run,
which they estimated would take more than 1 hour to complete. The July 4th
festivities are tomorrow, with the race beginning at noon in Old Town and
ending at the top of Heartbreak Hill. What advice would you give them?
I would tell them if that’s what they want to do then go ahead, but not to
drink too much because they may start experiencing side effects such as
restlessness, headaches, and palpitations.
