1. Warm Up
- Start your exercise slowly
- Warm up by doing anything slow to get the blood moving around
- Jogging lightly or on the spot is a good way to get
your blood flowing
- Your warm up should last for 5 – 10 mins
- Stretch your muscles using dynamic stretches
- After 5 – 10 min gradually increase your intensity until
you are working as hard as you plan to
2. Workout/Exercise
- Do the exercise that you planned
- Drink plenty of water
- Eat food if exercising for longer than an hour
3. Cool Down and Stretching
4. Record heart rate
- Do this the same amount of time after your main session every
time
- Use two fingers and place them on the palm side of
your wrist or the side of your neck.
- Do not use your thumb because it has its own pulse.
- Count the beats for 15 seconds
- Times that amount by 4 and record it down in your diary
