TRAINING GUIDELINES (FIG. B, 1-5)

A successful training program includes a warm-up, the actual training and a cool-down. Perform the complete training program at least twice, but preferably three times a week and keep a rest day between training sessions. After a few months, the intensity of the training can be increased, for example to four or five times a week.

The warm-up
The purpose of a warm-up is to prepare the body for training and to reduce the risk of injury. Warm up your body for two to five minutes before starting a cardio or strength training session. Do exercises that increase the heart rate and warm up the working muscles. Examples of this type of activity are running, jogging, jumping jacks, skipping and running in place.

Stretching
Stretching while the muscles are warm is very important after a good warm-up and cool-down. It reduces the risk of injury. Stretching exercises should be held for 15-30 seconds. Here are some examples of stretching exercises:

• Toe touch (Fig. B-1)
• Inner thight stretch (Fig. B-2)
• Hamstring stretch (Fig. B-3)
• Achilles stretch (Fig. B-4)
• Side stretch (Fig. B-5)
