Increasing the amount of resistance to limb movement in water can be achieved by:
A)Increasing agitation, moving the limb closer to the surface of the water, moving the limb quickly.
B)Moving the limb further from the surface of the water, moving the limb quickly, and using a device to increase the effective limb volume.
C)Decreasing water temperature, moving the limb further from the surface of the water, slowing limb movement.
D)Moving the limb quickly, increasing water temperature, agitating the water.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Moving the limb further from the surface of the water and using a device to increase the effective limb volume (such as resistance cuffs or paddles) will increase the amount of resistance to limb movement. Moving the limb quickly may also add resistance, but it can also increase the risk of injury. Decreasing water temperature and agitating the water may create resistance, but they can also be uncomfortable and may not be appropriate for all individuals.
