Which exercise name corresponds to the one described as Arms Reaching?

• A. Reach
• B. Elephant
• C. Twist
• D. Down Stretch

Answer: (A)

The action being tested is recognizing when an exercise name directly describes the main arm movement. Arms reaching describes arms extending away from the body along the length of the reformer, creating a long, reaching line from fingertips through the torso. The exercise whose name literally matches this action is Reach, because it emphasizes extending the arms outward and lengthening the spine as you move. The other options describe different patterns: Elephant is focused on leg work and posterior chain with the reformer carriage, Twist centers on spinal rotation, and Down Stretch involves a long stretch but not specifically the arms reaching as the defining cue.
