STRETCHING ROUTINE
Warm up and cool down
:
A successful exercise program consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise, and a cool-down. Warming up is an important part of
your workout, and should begin every session. It prepares your body for more strenuous exercise by heating up and
stretching out your muscles, increasing your circulation and pulse rate, and delivering more oxygen to your muscles. At the
end of your workout, repeat these exercises to reduce sore muscle problems. We suggest the following warm-up and cool-
down exercises:
Toe Touch
:
Slowly bend forward from your waist, letting your back and shoulders relax as you
stretch toward your toes. Reach down as far as you can and hold for 15 counts.
Shoulder Lift
:
Lift your right shoulder up toward your ear for one count. Then lift your left shoulder
up for one count as you lower your right shoulder.
Head Roll
:
Rotate your head to the right for one count, feeling the stretch up the left side of your
neck. Next, rotate your head back for one count, stretching your chin to the ceiling
and letting your mouth open. Rotate your head to the left for one count, and finally,
drop your head to your chest for one count.
