COOL-DOWN
The purpose of cooling down is to return the body to its normal or near normal, resting
state at the end of each exercise session. A proper cool-down slowly lowers your heart
rate, allows blood to return to the heart and helps prevent muscle soreness caused by the
build-up of lactic acid in the muscles.
Do not bounce or over- stretch.
Take your time on each stretch. Gradually take each
stretch a little deeper on every out breath to your personal maximum.
