Cool Down stretches

The goal of a cool-down is to speed up recovery and return the heart rate to pre-exercise values. After an exercise, the body can gradually lower blood pressure and heart rate while avoiding blood pooling in the limbs by engaging in a few low-intensity motions. 6 Walking slowly at home or on a treadmill is a fantastic method to start the cool down process.

Stretching for a few minutes after your heart rate has returned to normal will help you avoid the tightness and pain that come with exercise. To prevent damage, keep in mind to sink carefully into the stretch. Try the following stretches:

• Squat and extend. Your feet should be together while you sit on the ground with your legs extended in front of you. While you extend your arm, try to touch your toes. Take deep breaths while maintaining the stretch for 5 to 10 seconds.

• Forward flexion. You are standing with your feet close together. Go down and touch your toes. Keep your knees slightly bent. Take deep breaths while maintaining the stretch for 5 to 10 seconds.

• The infant position. Start by kneeling on the ground and sitting up. Your feet and knees should be underneath and behind you as you extend your arm forward and lower your body towards the floor while resting on top of your legs. Unwind as you stretch. Take deep breaths while holding the stretch for however long you feel is necessary.
