EXERCISE HINTS
4. Motivation
The key to a successful workout is regularity. We recommend, that you organize your training plan in
the way, that you arrange a fix place and time for each workout day. You should also prepare mentally
for your exercises. Begin your workouts only if you are in a good mood.
If you keep exercising continuously you will improve step by step.
Stretching exercises for the leg-muscles
The stretching exercises on the following page are suitable for warm-up AND cool-down phase.
The difference is the way of doing the stretches in these both phases.
In the warm-up phase the stretches should only be held in the extended position for app.
5 to 10 seconds (short stretching) and then the stretch needs to be released again.
This will increase the muscular tension and prepare the muscle for the coming exercise.
In the cool-down phase the stretches should be hold for at least 30 seconds in order to
lower the muscular tension after your exercise and beware from stiffness.
In general you should never stretch too hard. If you should feel pain, immediately stop the
stretching movement and pay attention that you will stretch only that far, that you will not feel
any pain for future exercise.
