Train with TMax: Warm Up & Cool Down the Right Way

Publisher : Timothy Maxwell

Course Language : English

We all hear about how important it is to warm up, so many of us just assume that we do a few stretches and shake out the limbs a little bit and then our bodies are ready. Well, no, that's not good enough. What does a good warm up do?

• Elevate the heart rate and prepare the heart to pump blood to the muscles
• Lubricate the joints
• Prepare the muscles, tendons, and ligaments to work
• Warm the body so that it is more responsive to training

So, then how should you warm up? That's what I'm going to show you ;-)

Once you've properly warmed up, then you are ready to attack your workout and reach your fitness goals!
