What are the different phases of exercise?

The phases of your exercise session should include warmup, conditioning, and
cooldown. Some people prefer to add stretching as a fourth phase, separating it from
the warmup or cooldown phases. Each of the phases plays an important role in helping
you reach your fitness goals while maintaining your health and safety.

Warm-up

The warm-up phase of exercise prepares your body for the activity of the conditioning
part of your workout. Warming up before exercise allows your body to adjust gradually
to the increased demand on your heart, muscles, breathing, and circulation. Warm-ups
also increase your body temperature slowly, improve flexibility, and protect against
injury and muscle soreness. Warm-ups involve light aerobic activities, such as walking
slowly for five to 10 minutes or a moderate version of your conditioning exercise, and

should be based on your physical characteristics and your conditioning activity. For
strength training, warm up by moving your joints and muscles.

Stretching

Stretching, or range-of-motion activities, can be performed as part of your warm up

phase, just after your light cardio. Stretch all of your major muscle groups for five to 10
minutes. Stretch and relax the muscles slowly and gently without jerking or bouncing
and hold each stretch to allow for tightening of the muscles and tendons.

Conditioning

During the conditioning phase, you perform the exercise that produces fitness benefits,
such as calorie burning, building endurance or muscle strengthening. You may choose
an aerobic exercise, such as swimming or the elliptical jogger, or you may lift free
weights, perform circuit training on weight machines or play high-intensity sports such
as soccer or basketball.

Cool down

The cool-down phase ends your exercise session with recovery time for your body.
Cooling down requires you to keep moving after you end the conditioning phase. Cool-
down movements should allow your heart rate, blood pressure, and body temperature
to return slowly to normal. A gradual decrease in physical activity, such as slow walking,
is a good way to cool down. You can also perform a few stretching movements to cool
down

Why is it important to exercise?

Exercise is very important in daily life it not only gives us strength every day but also
boosts our mood and confidence when facing people, It also helps us to think well about
every problem we may face and become physically active and fit.
