Warming up and stretching

Take enough time to warm up and cool down
before and after each workout. The following
exercises have been designed for this purpose.
Repeat each of the respective exercises 2–3
times.

Warming up your neck muscles

• Stand in a relaxed position. Using your hand,
pull your head gently to the left and then to
the right. This exercise helps stretch both sides
of your neck.
• Make circular movements with your head,
changing the direction. Repeat until your neck
feels loose and relaxed.

Warming up your arms and

shoulders

• Stretch one arm out sideways in front of your
chest and using your other hand, carefully
press it towards your body. After a while
change arms. Remember not to press beyond
the point of feeling a slight pull in your arm.
• Alternatively, move your arms over and behind
your head in a bent position and using your
other hand, gently press down on your elbow.
• Grasp your hands behind your back and
carefully pull them upwards. If you bend the
upper part of your body forwards, all the
muscles will be warmed up.
• To loosen up your shoulders, carefully make
circular movements with both shoulders – first
towards the front, then towards the back.
• Pull your shoulders upwards several times and
then let them fall back down again.
After repeating this exercise a few times, your
shoulders should feel warm and loose.
