running techniques, proper breathing, maintaining equipment in good working
condition, and by wearing the appropriate clothing.

any exercise program. This is especially important for individuals over the
age of 35, or persons with pre-existing health problems.
Always warm up before starting a workout. Try to do a total body warm up
groups you are going to be using. This can be as simple as performing a
warm up set of high repetitions and light weight for each exercise.

breathable clothing will reduce the risk of injury.
Maintaining equipment in proper operating condition is of utmost
importance for a safe cardio training program.
