Cool-Down: The purpose of cooling down is to return the body to its normal or near normal, resting
state at the end of each exercise session. A proper cool-down slowly lowers your heart rate and allows
blood to return to the heart. Your cool-down should include the stretches listed above and should be
completed after each strength training session.

While sitting on the floor open your
legs as wide as possible. Stretch the
upper body toward the knee on the

your chest to your thighs. Hold this
stretch 10 to 30 seconds. DO NOT
BOUNCE! Do this stretch 10 times.
Repeat the stretch with the left leg.
Bent Over Leg Stretch:
Stand with feet shoulder width apart
and lean forward as illustrated. Using
the arms, gently pull the upper body
towards the right leg. Let the head
hang down. DO NOT BOUNCE! Hold
the position a minimum of 10 seconds.
Repeat pulling the upper body to the
