Question 1 of 5
The nurse is leading an exercise class for a group of adults aged 65 years and older. The nurse incorporates isotonic,isometric and isokinetic exercises into the class. Which activity is an isometric exercise?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Contracting the gluteal muscles while holding a simple yoga pose. Isometric exercises involve static muscle contractions without joint movement. In this scenario, holding a yoga pose requires the gluteal muscles to contract and hold the position, which is characteristic of isometric exercise.
A: Carrying an air-filled ball while wading through the water - involves dynamic movements, not static contractions.
C: Walking around a racetrack - is an isotonic exercise involving joint movement.
D: Sitting in a chair and lifting the knee - is an isotonic exercise as it involves movement against resistance.
Therefore, B is the correct choice as it best aligns with the definition and characteristics of an isometric exercise.
