Post workout tips

At the gym I have noticed a number of people doing the following.
They jump off the treadmill, or they leave the class before the cooldown.

Cooling down after exercising is just as important as the warm up.
This vital part of your exercise program promotes recovery as well as preventing injuries and helps to reduce delayed onset muscle soreness.

Always replace the fluids lost after a workout.

Stretch your hard working muscles, hold each stretch for 30 seconds, please, please do not bounce.

Have a post workout snack, for example, some chocolate milk or a fruit smoothie.

Have a great evening.

    Hey Jodie! I just found your blog through OSG, great guest post, and also a great tip about the post workout snack, I always try to have something substantial after a workout, coconut water is great for replacing fluids too, have you tried it? I noticed on your OSG guest post your shoulders are amazing! I am really trying to work on my shoulders right now, so I am curious, is that all from pilates, or do you do other forms of strength training as well?
