How long should the warm-up be before interval conditioning?

  1. At least 5 to 10 minutes

  2. Exactly 2 minutes

  3. 15 to 20 minutes

  4. No warm-up is necessary

The correct answer is: At least 5 to 10 minutes

A warm-up before interval conditioning helps to prepare your muscles and cardiovascular system for the high-intensity exercises to come. A warm-up of 5 to 10 minutes is ideal as it allows for sufficient time to increase heart rate and body temperature, activate major muscle groups, and improve joint mobility. Option B is incorrect as 2 minutes is likely not enough time for a proper warm-up. Option C is also incorrect as 15 to 20 minutes may be too long, causing fatigue before the actual workout begins. Option D, no warm-up at all, is not recommended as it increases the risk of injury and decreases performance during the workout.
