Workout
Workout
Warm-up
Your workout should always start with a warm-up. The more
strenuous the subsequent training session, the more
important it is to warm up. Warming up prepares the body for
the strain, stimulates the cardiovascular system and protects
ligaments, tendons and joints from injuries. It also helps to
reduce the risk of cramps and muscle injuries. You should
loosen your joints a little before starting your workout.
Workout
After getting used to the exercises, try to be innovative and
develop your own training method. Combine different
exercises and listen to music to enjoy your workout even more.
Cool-down
Just as a warm-up should be performed before each training
session, a cool-down should be performed after each session.
A cool-down initiates the relaxation phase, reduces the
body’s operating temperature again, and depicts the change
from stress to relaxation.
Post-stretching
As mentioned earlier, you can easily pre-stretch your muscles
while warming up. After the training you should stretch your
muscles. A post-stretching brings the muscle back to its original
length and thus prevents muscle shortening. The more
strenuous the training, the more important the post-stretching is.
Post-stretching is particularly important for the main muscle
groups used during training. The stretching should be felt,
but it shouldn’t be painful. The stretching time is about 20
seconds for each muscle.
