PHYSICAL EXERCISES<br />

WARM-UP<br />

Prior to completing the dynamic stretches ensure that you have warmed up by lightly jogging, skipping or spinning for 8-12 min to increase<br />

muscle temperature and blood flow. Measure out a 12 m area to complete the 3-Step stretches, complete one rep of each stretch then lightly<br />

jog back to the starting point. For all other dynamic stretches complete one set of 10 reps for each exercise. NOTE: If you still have an area of<br />

your body that is still tight after completing the dynamic stretches take a few moments to further stretch that area or any other areas you<br />

feel that you need to.<br />
