In Gentile's EC dimension, which scenario best illustrates a moving regulatory condition?

In Gentile's EC dimension, regulatory conditions describe whether elements of the environment that shape movement are fixed or in motion. A moving regulatory condition means you have to adjust your movement in response to a changing environment or target as you perform the task. The scenario with a moving bullpen best illustrates this because the surrounding context is in motion, requiring continuous adaptation of your movement. You can’t rely on a fixed pattern; you must respond to how the environment changes as you act. The other scenarios are static or unrelated to moving the environment: a still bullpen or standing still involve stationary conditions, and without handling the ball emphasizes object manipulation rather than how the environment moves.
