If you have not practicedphysical activities or muscular exercises for a long time, stay careful and listen to what your body is telling you.
Do not force and know how to stop at the slightest suspicious sign or at the slightest pain. Fatigue, redundant muscle pain, shortness of breath or racing heart are signals not to be neglected.
For each session, you must set yourself reasonable goals. No need to try to do too much! If you haven’t worked out since high school, it’s not a good idea to exercise to the point of exhaustion. Take it gradually.
No impasse on warming up
Before practicing physical exercise, you must spend at least five minutes to warm up to avoid injury.
The idea is to increase your body temperature and prepare your jointsyour muscles and your heart rate.
You can start your warm-up slowly by jumping from one foot to the other and performing movements rotations with outstretched arms, wrists and neck. Also use your legs and thighs by doing squats for example.
Do some stretching once your body temperature has already increased slightly. Don’t stay put, put some movement in your stretching. For example, swing your arms rather than simply raising them overhead. Another example, do lunges while walking rather than bending your legs in a static position.
