WARM-UP and COOL-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.
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-train-
ing 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
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.
