What is the purpose of discussing myths and fears related to exercise in the precontemplation stage?

  1. To scare clients into exercising

  2. To prepare clients for relapses

  3. To increase awareness and educate

  4. To evaluate support systems

The correct answer is: To increase awareness and educate

Discussions about myths and fears related to exercise in the precontemplation stage are not meant to scare clients into exercising (option A). Rather, they are used to increase awareness and educate clients about the potential barriers and challenges they may face while trying to adopt an exercise routine. This allows clients to become more informed and prepared before they even begin their journey, increasing the chances of success. Additionally, discussing these myths and fears can also help clients identify their own personal barriers and develop strategies to overcome them, rather than relying on external factors (option D). It is not about preparing for relapses (option B), as this stage is about building motivation and readiness for change.
