RAINING NOTES
With your interest in strength training you have taken
an important step towards mobility and health - be-
cause strength training strengthens the muscles.
Strength training not only prevents the loss of muscle
mass and strength, but improves on this even. The mo-
bility of the joints is increased - reducing the risk of
injury.
Your blood pressure, your cholesterol, your blood sug-
ar, your motivation and even your mood can be great-
ly improved by a little sport. You can change your
character in moderation. In conjunction with proper
diet will reduce your body fat and improve your silhou-
ette.

Each exercise should consist of the following three
parts:
1. Warm Up
2. Cardio or weight exercise
3. Cool Down & stretching
Warm Up
This stage helps get the blood flowing around the body
and the muscles working properly. It will also reduce
the risk of cramp and muscle injury. It is advisable to
do a few stretching exercises. Each stretch should be
held for approximately 30 seconds, do not force or jerk
your muscles into a stretch - if it hurts, STOP.
The Training
The start of endurance (often also called cardiovascular
or cardio training because of the positive effects on the
cardiovascular system) or a force or muscle training is
the first step in the fight against civilization infectious
diseases and physical symptoms, especially with ad-
vancing age.
Cool Down
Just as a warm-up should be performed before each
training session, a cool-down should take place after a
unit. A Cool Down starts the relaxation phase; the op-
erating temperature of the body will come back down
and shows the transition of stress relaxation.
The cool-down should last at least 10 minutes (as the
Warm Up) and is controlled slowly dropping down to
the lowest level. The pulse rate should drop as low as
possible.
Stretching
As already mentioned, you can stretch before/during
the warm-up your muscles easily. After the training you
should definitely stretch your muscles. A stretching
afterwards returns the muscle to its original length, thus
preventing muscle shortening. The more strenuous the
training has been, the more important is the stretching
afterwards.
Particularly important is the stretching for the exercised
muscle groups. Stretching should be noticeable for the
muscle addressed, but it should never hurt. Stretching
should take 20 to 30 seconds per muscle.

Start your training with about 7 - 8 reps per exercise
set. Increase the number of repetitions according to
your individual preferences slowly to 11 - 12 reps per
set. If you notice that your muscles are tired, reduce the
scope of your training. Ideally train 3 - 4 times a week.
However, be sure that between individual exercises one
day of rest is inserted so that the muscles and the body
are able to recover sufficiently.
Also, perform all exercises with a stable body centre.
The spine (particularly the lumbar spine) must be kept
straight, so that the individual vertebrae are held in the
biomechanically correct position, e.g. to protect the
disc against faulty loads.
Do not train with momentum and / or jerkily. Perform
all exercises in a smooth and controlled manner. Note
that in case of improper or excessive training negative
effects on your health are possible.
