Answer:

Jim Fitch's constant exercise caused hypertrophy in the muscles of his arms and chest, making those muscles bigger.

Explanation:

As stated in the question above, Jim Fitch was not satisfied with his physique and therefore decided to "pump iron", which can be considered a muscle endurance exercise. This is because this type of exercise allows Fitch to do several repetitions that aim to stimulate resistance, causing an increase in the strength of the muscles of your arm and chest. This will cause a hypertrophy in the muscle cells of that region which will result in a significant increase in the size of these muscles, leaving them well defined.

Answer and Explanation:

Hi. This question requires a personal answer, ie based on your own knowledge of defrosting and cooking meat. However, to try and help you, I'm going to present you with an answer that you can use as a template to create your own answer.

I was not aware of all the rules for thawing and safe cooking of meats, especially regarding defrosting them. I always thought that meat should be thawed in a warm environment and I didn't know that this stimulated the proliferation of bacteria and that the correct thing was for the meat to be thawed in a cold environment, which would prevent the proliferation of bacteria. I also didn't know that meat that has been completely thawed cannot be refrozen, as it promotes resistant bacteria that can be very harmful to health.

Lastly, he did not know the dangers of rare meat and believed that this was a safe eating practice. I now know that meat must be well cooked to avoid poisoning.
