Translate "No corras en el pasillo."

No corras is the negative tú command of correr, so it means don't run. The other options contradict the negative form.

Él me dijo que estiro antes de correr
Él me dijo que estiró antes de correr

Debemos hacer un calentamiento
Debemos a hacer un calentamiento

Debemos (we must) plus the infinitive hacer is correct: debemos hacer un calentamiento. The other options misuse prepositions or gerunds.
Complete: "Para la siguiente ronda, quiero que todos ustedes ____ el ritmo."
disminuyan
mantengan
retengan
aumenten
In a subordinate clause after quiero que, the present subjunctive aumenten (increase) applies. The other verbs do not fit the instruction to raise the pace.

  2. Learn Action Verbs for Activities - Get comfortable with verbs such as "correr" (to run), "saltar" (to jump) and "nadar" (to swim). These action words are essential when describing what athletes do on the field or in the pool. Practice making short sentences to narrate a game or workout. Spanish Grammar Lessons
  3. Use "Jugar," "Practicar" & "Hacer" Properly - Understand when to say "juego al fútbol" (I play soccer), "practico natación" (I practice swimming) or "hago ejercicio" (I do exercise). These verbs change the nuance of your sentence and help you sound more natural. Try swapping them in different contexts to see how meaning shifts. BBC Bitesize
  4. Pick Up Motivational Commands - Learn pep-talk phrases like "¡Vamos!" (Let's go!), "¡Sigue así!" (Keep it up!) and "¡No te rindas!" (Don't give up!). These expressions fuel enthusiasm during drills or friendly competitions. Use them to hype up your classmates or teammates. Madrid Mundo
  5. Identify Gym Equipment Vocabulary - Familiarize yourself with words for "mancuernas" (dumbbells), "barra" (barbell) and "cinta de correr" (treadmill). This jargon helps you follow workout instructions and understand exercise routines. Next time you hit the gym, you'll know exactly what gear to ask for. Madrid Mundo
  6. Express Frequency of Activities - Use adverbs like "a menudo" (often), "a veces" (sometimes) and "nunca" (never) to say how regularly you work out or play sports. Talking about routines gives depth to your conversations and helps you plan training schedules. Try describing your weekly fitness plan in Spanish! BBC Bitesize
  7. Learn Body Part Names - Recognize terms like "cabeza" (head), "hombro" (shoulder) and "pierna" (leg) to follow instructions and discuss injuries. This vocabulary is crucial in PE class or when talking about stretching and recovery. Imagine explaining a sprained ankle in Spanish - now you can! Madrid Mundo
  8. Build Full Sentences About Your Routine - Combine your sports terms, action verbs and frequency words to form sentences like "Practico atletismo dos veces a la semana" (I do athletics twice a week). Crafting these statements boosts your fluency and helps you share personal experiences. Challenge yourself to write a short sports diary in Spanish! BBC Bitesize
  9. Use Feedback Phrases - Learn how to praise or advise with expressions like "¡Buen trabajo!" (Good job!) and "Necesitas mejorar tu técnica" (You need to improve your technique). These comments are vital for coaches and teammates during practice. Role-play giving feedback to perfect your pronunciation and tone. Madrid Mundo
  10. Master Definite Articles with Sports - Remember that most sports in Spanish take an article: "el fútbol," "la natación," "el baloncesto." Using "el" or "la" correctly makes your sentences grammatically solid. Test yourself by listing your favorite events with proper articles! BBC Bitesize
