The first 2 to 5 minutes of a workout should be devoted to warming up. The warm-up will limber your
muscles and prepare them for more strenuous exercise. Make sure that you warm-up on your Horizon
Fitness product at a slow pace.

Never stop exercising suddenly! A cool-down period allows your heart to readjust to the decreased
demand. Make sure that your cool down period consists of a very slow pace to allow your heart rate to
lower. After the cool-down, repeat the stretching exercises (listed above) to loosen and relax your
muscles.
