Sample Answer

Identify a specific physiological response of interest (e.g., heart rate, ventilation rate, body temperature) that can be reliably measured.
Determine the exact aerobic training activity or protocol to be studied, including details of duration and intensity.
Consider the particular aspect of the response to investigate (immediate changes, recovery patterns, or adaptations over time).
Formulate a question that establishes a clear relationship between the training and the physiological response, using precise language and avoiding ambiguity.
