WARM UP AND COOL DOWN ROUTINE
A good exercise program consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise, and a cool down. Do the entire program
at least two to 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.
AEROBIC EXERCISE is any sustained activity that sends oxygen to your muscles via your heart and lungs.
Aerobic exercise improves the fitness of your lungs and heart. Aerobic fitness is promoted by any activity
that uses your large muscles eg: legs, arms and buttocks. Your heart beats quickly and you breathe deeply.
An aerobic exercise should be part of your entire exercise routine.
The WARM-UP is an important part of any workout. It should begin every session to prepare your body for
more strenuous exercise by heating up and stretching your muscles, increasing your circulation and pulse
rate, and delivering more oxygen to your muscles. ‘
COOL DOWN at the end of your workout, repeat these exercises to reduce soreness in tired muscles.
