This accounts for the reason why many people who have engaged in some form of regular physical exercise end up just copping out and never come back to performing their fitness workout programs. You certainly don't want that to happen to you - do you?
So, in order to prevent injuries you must stretch before and after your fitness workout in order to increase your flexibility. You should stretch and hold the position from 20 to 60 seconds repeating a few times but without bouncing.
When performing your fitness workout program it's important that you recognise your ability and to only do exercises that you are
comfortable with and not to force yourself to compete with others who are more advanced, until you are physically ready and able. It's important to remember that it's not a race.
You will also find that when you start warming up and stretching, that it will also get you into the right state of mind for performing your fitness exercise program
I hope that these few tips on fitness workout program - how to warm up are helpful to you.
