STRETCHING
Stretching should be included in both your warm up and cool down, and should be performed after 3-5
minutes of low intensity aerobic activity or callisthenic type exercise. Movements should be performed
slowly and smoothly, with no bouncing or jerking. Move into the stretch until slight tension, not pain, is
felt in the muscle and hold for 20-30 seconds. Breathing should be slow, rhythmical and under control,
making sure never to hold your breath.
