Make sure expenses are below income.

Explanation:

So lets go over what a budget is.

A budget is a limitation put on the amount of money spent.

The point of a budget is to not spend too much money, ie, not spend more than you get.

Lets look at the answe options and see which one is closest to this:

Reduce the size of fixed expenses.

This is reducing the cost of something.

This is not what budget does, true it saves you money, like reducing the size of fixed expenses, but it does it differently.

A budget limits the money you spend, saving you money by not spending more money.

A reduction of the fixed expenses saves you money by reducing the cost of something.

This isnt it.

Earn return on savings.

Earning something in general has nothing to do with budget.

Basically a simple way of putting it is budget reduces spending, and has no effectt of earnings.

This increases earning, with no regards to spending.

So this is not it either.

Prevent discretionary spending.

This is basically preventing spending money on uneccesary things.

Although it may sound like this could be it, since it reduces spending money, and has no effect on earnings, it isnt 100% accurate.

A budget doesnt mean that you cannot spend money on wants rather that needs, but restricts the amount or specifics of your wants or needs.

So again, this is not it,

Lastly we have expenses below income.

This is the purpose of budget.

Budget makes it so you do not spend more than you earn.

It limits the amount of money you spend, so no matter what you can not spend more than what you restrict your budget to.

Hope this helps!

take five to 10 minutes to warm up and cool down properly.

plan to start slowly and boost your activity level gradually unless you are already exercising frequently and vigorously.

be aware that training too hard or too often can cause overuse injuries like stress fractures, stiff or sore joints and muscles, and inflamed tendons and ligaments. sports prompting repetitive wear and tear on certain parts of your body — such as swimming (shoulders), jogging (knees, ankles, and feet), tennis (elbows) — are often overuse culprits, too. a mix of different kinds of activities and sufficient rest is safer.

listen to your body. hold off on exercise when you're sick or feeling very fatigued. cut back if you cannot finish an exercise session, feel faint after exercise or fatigued during the day, or suffer persistent aches and pains in joints after exercising.

if you stop exercising for a while, drop back to a lower level of exercise initially. if you're doing strength training, for example, lift lighter weights or do fewer reps or sets.

for most people, simply drinking plenty of water is sufficient. but if you're working out especially hard or doing a marathon or triathlon, choose drinks that replace fluids plus essential electrolytes.

choose clothes and shoes designed for your type of exercise. replace shoes every six months as cushioning wears out.

for strength training, good form is essential. initially use no weight, or very light weights, when learning the exercises. never sacrifice good form by hurrying to finish reps or sets, or struggling to lift heavier weights.

exercising vigorously in hot, humid conditions can lead to serious overheating and dehydration. slow your pace when the temperature rises above 70°f. on days when the thermometer is expected to reach 80°f, exercise during cooler morning or evening hours or at an air-conditioned gym. watch for signs of overheating, such as headache, dizziness, nausea, faintness, cramps, or palpitations.

dress properly for cold-weather workouts to avoid hypothermia. depending on the temperature, wear layers you can peel off as you warm up. don't forget gloves.
