What is the total value of the Medium Female block prescription 3/3/1/3/1?

• A. 9
• B. 11
• C. 10
• D. 12

Answer: (B)

Sum the numbers in the block prescription. Each number represents the number of repetitions for a component within that block. So add them: 3 + 3 + 1 + 3 + 1 = 11. The label “Medium Female” guides the scaling, but does not change the arithmetic of the block’s total reps. Therefore, the total value is 11.
