Which of the following is NOT a feature used to raise participation among the elderly?

• A. High-intensity workouts
• B. Sessions during the day
• C. Provide transport
• D. Targeted advertising

Answer: (B)

The key idea is making activity safe, accessible, and appealing for older adults. High-intensity workouts are generally avoided for the elderly because they carry higher risks of injury and strain, and can be uncomfortable for many participants who have lower fitness levels or health concerns. That’s why these workouts are not used to boost participation among the elderly. In contrast, scheduling sessions during the day fits many older adults’ routines and energy levels, providing transport helps overcome travel barriers, and targeted advertising helps reach and motivate those who might not otherwise try a program. So, the feature that would not be used to raise participation is the high-intensity workout approach.
