3) A cooling down phase:
This entails a reduction of exertion (10 to 20 min). It enables you to return your cardiovascular system to normal
(55% of your MHR) and prevent or reduce muscular pain such as cramp and stiffness. You must follow the
training with a session of stretching exercises while your joints
are still warm. This relaxes the muscles and helps to prevent stiffness. Stretch slowly and gently. You must never
stretch until you reach the pain threshold. Hold each stretch for 30 to 60 seconds while breathing out.
Check your progress
As it improves, your cardiovascular system will have an HR which will be lower when at rest. You will take
longer to reach your target zone and it will be easier for you to maintain it. Sessions will seem easier and
easier and you will have more stamina in your daily life.
If, on the other hand, your HR is higher than usual when at rest, you will have to rest or reduce the intensity
of your training.
Do not be discouraged by the initial sessions. Motivate yourself by scheduling specific training times. Work hard!
