Lesson details

Lesson outcome

I can explain the phases of a warm up and a cool down and the physical benefits for completing both.

Show transcript
A warm up should include a pulse raiser, mobility, stretching, dynamic movements and skill rehearsal. Warming up raises body temperature, increasing range of movement and pliability of muscles to reduce risk of injury. A cool down should involve low intensity exercise and stretching exercises. Cool down helps the transition to a resting state, facilitates the removal of waste products to reduce muscle soreness.
