Interval training improves cardiovascular fitness by working by aerobic and anaerobic thresholds
Interval training only improves muscle strength, not cardiovascular fitness
Interval training decreases the heart's ability to pump blood
Interval training has no impact on cardiovascular fitness
Imagine you're watching a high-intensity sports event. The athletes are moving from station to station, each focusing on a different muscle group. What would you call this type of training?
A series of exercises performed one after another at stations, which focus on different muscle groups.

By increasing the size and strength of muscle fibers through hypertrophy.
By decreasing the size and strength of muscle fibers through atrophy.
By causing the muscles to become weaker and less efficient.
