  • Why Skipping a Warm-Up and a Cool-Down is a Bad Idea

    Perhaps you love working out so much that as you as you get to the gym, you immediately hit the weights and machines. Not a good move. A safe and healthy workout must be preceded by a sensible warm-up routine, and followed by a cool-down. Why, you may ask? Warming up is an excellent way to increase muscular blood and oxygen flow, as well as raise your body temperature, potentially decreasing the risk of injury, and post-workout muscle pain.
