Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the concept of static resistance exercise: Static resistance exercises, also known as isometric exercises, involve muscle engagement without movement. The muscle length does not change, and the joint angle remains constant during the exercise.
Analyze each option: Consider whether each exercise involves movement or maintains a static position.
Jumping jacks: This exercise involves dynamic movement of the arms and legs, making it a dynamic exercise rather than static.
Bicep curl: This exercise involves the movement of the elbow joint as the arm bends and straightens, classifying it as a dynamic resistance exercise.
Plank: This exercise requires holding a position without movement, engaging the core muscles isometrically, making it a static resistance exercise.
