Week # 2

Questions:

My upcoming goals are to be as fit as possible, especially my pushups.

The point of doing a warm up, is to warm up your muscles so you don’t shock them right away. Also doing a warm up allows you to gain abit of energy. before you’re actually workout

A successful warm up, needs movements that increase your heart rate, breathing and the temperature of your muscles. a good example of a successful warm up is when you have a slight sweat

The point of doing a cool down is to reduce your heart and breathing rates, while gradually cooling down your body temperature, this is good to avoid venous pooling of blood in the lower extremities, which may cause dizziness or possible fainting.

The best time to stretch is when the muscles are warm, it’s best to do your stretching after a warm up or after you’ve exercised for at least 10 minutes because it reduces the risk of injury.

Stretching is important because it keeps the muscles flexible, strong and healthy which is needed to maintain a range of motion in the joints. Without it can cause the muscles to shorten and become tight which can cause joint pain, strains and muscle damage.
