B is correct: VR creates simulated environments where athletes can practise skills and tactics, enhancing decision-making and performance in realistic conditions without physical strain.

Other options:

A is incorrect: Monitoring heart rate and breathing is the role of wearable devices, not VR.
C is incorrect: Recording movement data is the purpose of video or motion analysis tools.
D is incorrect: Muscle activation feedback comes from biomechanics or EMG systems, not VR.
