Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Learners discuss the relationship between intensity and duration of exercises. The higher the intensity, the shorter should be the duration. In high intensity activity, the body burns nutrients faster and requires more nutrient intake at the end of the activity to maintain equilibrium.
