STRETCHING
Stretching should be included in both your warm
up and cool down, and should be performed after
3-5 minutes of low intensity aerobic activity or
calisthenic type exercise. Movements should be
performed slowly and smoothly, with no bouncing
or jerking. Move into the stretch until slight
tension, not pain, is felt in the muscle and hold for
20-30 seconds. Breathing should be slow, rhyth-
mical and under control, making sure never to
hold your breath.
