3. Cool-down phase
This phase allows the cardiovascular
and muscle system to relax. It consists
of repeating the warm-up exercises,
i.e. reducing the rhythm and
continuing for approximately 5
minutes. Repeat the stretching
exercises but remember not to
overexert the muscles.
Eventually your training sessions will
have to become longer and more
intensive. It is advisable to exercise at
least three days per week, on
alternate days.
Muscle toning
You should select a high exertion level
in order to tone muscles during
exercise. This entails greater stress on
the leg and arm muscles, so it may be
wise to reduce exercise times. If you
also wish to improve your overall
fitness then you should change your
training program. Do the warm-up and
cool-down exercises as normal but
when you are reaching the end of the
exercise phase, increase the exertion
level in order to make your legs work
harder. You should reduce speed in
order to keep your heart rate within
the target area.
