Critical Reasoning

All good atheletes who want to win are disciplined and have a well balanced diet. Therefore, atheletes who do not have well balanced diets are bad atheletes. Based on the sentence above which of the following strongly supports the view:
a) no bad athelete wants to win
b) no athelete who does not eat a well balanced diet is good athelete
c) every athelete who eats a well balanced diet is good athelete
d) all athelete who want to win are good atheletes

Is it A?

since all good athlete have well balanced diet impleies B
IMO B

has to be B
this is the exact paraphrase of conclusion in the argument (therefore,.....)

inference Question...

only B fits becoz its an exact paraphrase of the second sentence

IMO: A.

What is the OA? How can it be B, as someone above says?

Thanks.

+1 for A

Looking for OA!

This cannot be a GMAT question. The reasoning is absolutely flawed here.

Using formal reasoning

Fact 1: Good Atheletes, who want to win --> Disciplined AND Well balanced diet.
Contrapositive of Fact 1 : ~ Disciplined OR ~ Well balanced diet --> ~ Good atheletes who want to win.

Conclusion : ~Well balanced diet --> Bad athelete.

Problem : Strengthen the argument

Soln: The correct choice would be
Bad athelete = ~Good athelete who wants to win.

A can be the closest possible answer.

IMO B. You can see two sentences are not different .
