About this document
Warm-Up and Cool Down Essentials by Isabelle Torres is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Warming up and cooling down are important for athletic performance and injury prevention. A proper warm-up gradually increases body temperature, blood flow, and range of motion to prepare muscles for exercise. Cooling down allows the body to safely return to rest and reduces risks of muscle soreness and injury. Both should last 5-10 minutes and incorporate dynamic and static stretching exercises moving from larger to smaller muscle groups.
