b) "i do my exercises when i go to physical therapy in the morning and afternoon."
c) "because i'm stiff in the morning, i do most of my exercises then, so i'm done for the day."
d) "after i eat breakfast, i do one set of exercises slowly, and then i space the rest of them throughout the day."

d) "After I eat breakfast, I do one set of exercises slowly, and then I space the rest of them throughout the day."

Explanation:

Spacing activity protects joints from overuse, misuse, and stress, limiting inflammation; it provides a balance between rest and activity. The exercise program should be planned; too much activity can precipitate an exacerbation, and too little may cause contractures. Spaced range-of-motion exercises should be incorporated into daily living activities, not just twice a day. The actions expressed in the response "Because I'm stiff in the morning, I do most of my exercises then, so I'm done for the day" will cause stress at the joints, which may precipitate an exacerbation
