2. WARM-UP EXERCISES
Please don’t forget to take a few minutes to warm up before starting the
exercises. We will now show you a couple of simple warm-up exercises
which you should complete before the work out.
2.1 HEAD/NECK
□ Place one hand on the side of your head and pull it lightly to the side. In
this way, one side of your neck is stretched. Repeat the exercise on the
other side. Make sure that you do not pull too hard.
□ Now circle your head slowly in one direction, then repeat the exercise
in the other direction.
Do these exercises as many times as necessary until you feel a pleasant,
warm feeling in your neck.
2.2 ARMS/SHOULDERS
□
Stretch your arms by placing an outstretched arm across your chest
and lightly pushing it with the other hand. Only push hard enough so that
you can feel a slight pull. Hold the arm for a short time in this position and
then change to stretch the other arm.
□
Bring one arm behind your head and stretch by lightly pushing down
on it with the other hand. This is a very good stretch for the underside of
your arms.
