What is a critical step in preventing acute injuries?

  1. Ignoring minor discomforts

  2. Profiling your client for intrinsic risk factors

  3. Skipping warm-up routines

  4. Exercising in extreme weather conditions

The correct answer is: Profiling your client for intrinsic risk factors

Profiling your client for intrinsic risk factors is the best choice to prevent acute injuries because it assesses the specific needs and abilities of the individual, rather than ignoring minor discomforts, skipping warm-up routines, or exercising in extreme weather conditions which can increase the risk of injury. Minor discomforts may be signs of a potential injury and should not be ignored, even if they seem insignificant. Skipping warm-up routines can lead to muscles and tissues being unprepared for exercise, increasing the likelihood of injury. Exercising in extreme weather conditions can also put strain on the body and increase the risk of injury. Therefore, B is the best choice to prevent acute injuries.
