BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT
WARM UP
A successful exercise program consists of a warm-up, aerobic exercise, and a cool-down. Warming up is an important
part of your workout, and should begin every session. It prepares your body for more strenuous exercise by heating
up and stretching out your muscles, increasing your circulation and pulse rate, and delivering more oxygen to your
muscles. At the end of your workout, repeat these exercises to reduce sore muscle problems. We suggest the following
