Question

Explain the importance of warming up and cooling down and predict how it will help you in the future.

Answer 1

I am a six grader so don’t expect the best answer from me lol. but it is important to cool down because it can really help with anxiety, high blood pressure, panic attacks and so on. it is important to warm up because it can help your body flow well. that is all i can answer and i hope it helps :)

Answer 2

1) Warming up before doing exercise can help prevent your muscles from pain and soreness, mostly because it stretches out the muscles before you do any exercises. Cooling down can help relax your muscles and body, if you don’t cool down you could make sore muscles more sore.

2) this part is your personal opinion.

3) This is for you to tell your teacher what you do that is Aerobic and which ones that you do are not Aerobic.

4) Explain how you figured out how intense your Aerobic exercise is, basically check your pulse. Tell them the other ways to check your pulse; there is a pulse on both sides of your face under your chin, on the front of your wrist, temple, behind the knee, and the tip of your foot.

5) What is the fastest/highest you want your heart rate to be? Give the calculations you made. It is important to keep your heart rate up because the faster your heart pumps the more your body works to move oxygen and your blood cells efficiently.

6) check your pulse at the wrist (take your pointer and index/middle finger placing it on your wrist on the side your thumb is) once you feel your pulse count how many times your heart beats for 15 seconds, write it down and multiply that number by four.
(Example: my current heart rate is 32 beats every 15 seconds, 32*4=128)
So if your heart beat is 25 beats every 10 seconds that means it’s 100 beats because 25*4=100

Kind of exercise you choose to do, if it’s Cardiovascular, Resistance Training, or a mix of both, what exercise(s) will you do to reach your goal.

T-Time:
Just how long each individual session should last, it varies on the intensity and type.

How they can help with changing a workout routine is, after a while of doing the same thing the same way with the same weights/setting go up one more, so if you started at 15lbs barbells go up to 20lbs barbells if you can. Use the new ones every day continuing your pattern but don’t do it for the same amount of time, if you were doing 60 mins with 15lbs barbells then go down to 30 mins with the 20lbs barbells, over time go up a few minutes.

Hope this helped, sorry it’s so long.
