Answer:
Cooling down after a workout is as important as warming up. Proper cool down helps to prevent injuries. Cooling down helps to lower breathing, heart rate and bringing the body temperature down which allows the blood to re-circulate throughout the body. It includes stretching those muscles which have been overworked during the workout. A proper cooling down session takes five to ten minutes and includes low-intensity exercises followed by stretching. One can do low-intensity exercises for three minutes followed by five minutes of stretching. Standing Toe Touch and Upper chest stretch are some stretching exercises.
