Flexibility
Flexibility is the range of movement at a joint, where one or more bones meet. By maintaining your
joints and improving your flexibility, you will be less susceptible to injury or joint-related illnesses. You
should aim to improve flexibility gently, with a few simple stretches, which should always form part of
your warm-up and cool-down routine. You can then continue to increase your flexibility in your main
workout.
warm up and cool down
A successful exercise programme consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise, and a cool-down. Do the
entire programme 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.
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. Try the following warm up
and cool down exercises.
