COOLING DOWN
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.
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. Activities may include brisk walking, jogging, jumping jacks, jump rope,
and running in place.
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.
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 and allows blood to return to the
heart.
