WARM UP. COOL DOWN. YOUR BODY IS A MACHINE. Save a few minutes at the end of each workout to cool down. This allows your heart rate to transition easily into recovery while breathing and blood pressure come back to normal. It also helps improve flexibility and helps prevent injury. The cool down should be performed fluidly as a series of movements rather than individual exercises. It’s important to prep before you throw yourself into a workout. Warming up allows your joints to move through their full range of motion and can help to improve the quality of your workout while reducing your chances of injury. Think of it as a dress rehearsal for the main event. Use this warm up before each exercise in the BEGINNER program.
