Before and After Exercise - Cool Down
<< Warm UpStretching >>
The cool down, like the warm up, is a very important part of each training session and competition. The purpose of the cool down is maintaining light, continuous exercise to allow your body to pump oxygen around the fatigued muscles. This will help to remove the lactic acid that has built up in the muscles during exercise. A cool down reduces blood pooling in the muscles, which can lead to dizziness, and can also limit the soreness experienced in the muscles during the days after strenuous exercise. A good cool down should consist of five to 15 minutes of light continuous exercise followed by stretching.
