3.2 Warming up and cooling down
A good training schedule starts with a good warming up and ends with a cooling
down of the muscles. This will prevent painful muscles and injury. Below you will
find some suitable exercises.
40 - Manual NOW CT2.5
Head Roll
Tilt your head to the right. Hold this for one second, so that you feel a little
pull in the muscles on the left side of your neck. Do the same for the other
side, front and back. Repeat two or three times.
Toe Touch
Slowly bend forward with your back and arms relaxed. Bend as far as you
can and hold the position for ten seconds. Repeat this two or three times.
Shoulder Lift
Lift your right shoulder and turn it clockwise two times. Then turn it
counter clockwise two more times. Relax and do the same exercise with
your left shoulder. Repeat this three or four times.
Calf Stretch
Place two hands against a wall. Place one foot about thirty centimetres
behind its original position and put your foot flat on the floor. Bend your
forward leg and lean against the wall. Stretch your back leg and feel the
muscle in your calf stretch. Hold this position for five seconds and repeat
with your other leg. Repeat this two or three times
Side Stretch
Extend both your arms up in the air and reach as high as you can with
your right arm. Lean a bit to the left so that the muscles in the right side
of your torso are stretched. Hold this position for one second. Relax and
make the same motion on the other side of your body. Repeat this three or
four times.
Inner Thigh Stretch
Sit down on the floor and bend your legs. Place the soles of your feet
against each other. Keep your back straight and bend forward over your
feet. This stretches the muscles on the inside of your upper legs. Keep
this position for five seconds, relax and repeat it three or four times.
Hamstring Stretch
Sit down on the floor with your right leg extended in front of you and
place the sole of your left foot on the inside of your right upper leg. Bend
forward in the direction of your right foot and hold this position for ten
seconds. Relax and then do the same with your other leg. Repeat two or
three times.
