28
Q

Environmental conditions that can affects one’s response to acute exercise (5)

A

-Temperature
-Elevation/Altitude
-Weather
-Air Quality
-Terrain/Region

29
Q

What are the advantages and disadvantages of a longitudinal study design versus a cross-sectional study design?

A

Longitudinal studies are often more accurate than cross-sectional studies but
are time consuming and expensive.
