What is the recommended duration for a general warm-up?

  1. 5 or more minutes

  2. 20 minutes

  3. 1 minute

  4. 30 seconds

The correct answer is: 5 or more minutes

A general warm-up involves engaging in lower intensity exercises to prepare the body for more strenuous physical activity. It usually lasts for around 5 or more minutes to allow the body to gradually increase heart rate and body temperature. Option B, 20 minutes, is too long for a general warm-up and can result in fatigue and muscle soreness. Option C, 1 minute, is too short and does not provide enough time for the body to adequately prepare for physical activity. Option D, 30 seconds, is also too short and may not be sufficient for the body to warm up properly. It is important to follow the recommended duration for a general warm-up to prevent injury and perform at your best during physical activity.
