How to do warm Up-Before Exercise

Whether you are a novice or an expert in exercising, it is essential to warm up and stretch before you exercise.

Warming up is necessary as it helps to prepare your body for exercises by increasing your heart rate and improving blood circulation. It even prepares you mentally for your workout.

To help understand the importance of warm up, simply compare your body to driving a car in freezing cold weather.

In winter days, you allow your car to warm up a bit before driving. Similarly, you need to prepare your body physically by gradually increasing your body temperature to meet the demands of a strenuous exercise session.
