Cool Down
To decrease fatigue and muscle soreness, you should also cool down by walking at a slow relaxed pace
for a minute or so, to allow your heart rate to return to normal.
Warm Up and Cool Down Exercises
Hold each stretch for a minimum of ten seconds and then relax. Repeat each stretch two or three times.
Do this before your Aerobic Exercise session and also after you have finished.

your head back for one count, stretching your chin. Then rotate your head to the left for one count,
feeling a slight pull on the right side of your neck. Lastly, drop your head to your chest for one count.
Repeat 2 to 3 times.
