ELLIPTICAL DEVELOPING A FITNESS PROGRAM Warm Up: Warming up is an extremely important phase, but unfortunately, it's often an activity that is ignored and painful, frustrating muscle pulls or strains may be the result. There are two goals for warm-up: warming up the muscles of the back and the extremities ( so that you can stretch them without injury), and slight acceleration of the heart rate so the body can move gradually into the target heart rate.
ELLIPTICAL FLEXIBILITY Adequate flexibility is the ability to move your limbs and joints easily (through a complete range of motion) the way you need to in order to meet the callenges of daily life. Fortunately there's a positive reinforcing cycle between flexibility and activity.
