WARM-UP AND COOL-DOWN EXERCISES
A successful exercise program consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise, and a cool-down. Do the
entire program at least two and preferably three times a week, resting for a day between workouts.
After several months, you can increase your workouts to four or five times per week.
Warm up
The purpose of warming up is to prepare your body for exercise and to minimize injuries. Warm up for
two to five minutes before strength-training or aerobic exercising. Perform activities that raise your
heart rate and warm the working muscles. Warm-up activities may include brisk walking, jogging,
jumping jacks, jumping rope, and running in place.
Stretching
Stretching while your muscles are warm after a proper warm-up and again after your strength or
aerobic training session is very important. Muscles stretch more easily at these times because of their
elevated temperature, which greatly reduces the risk of injury. Stretches should be held for 15 to 30
seconds. Do not bounce.
