WARM DOWN THEORY
P.E.O.
WARM UP THEORY
 Before any physical activity the
programme is to commence with a
warming up period of between
8 – 10 minutes.
 It reduces the chance of injury.
 It improves performance.
PURPOSE
 To prepare the muscles & joints,
cardio - respiratory system & brain
for physical activity helping to prevent
injury
AIMS




Mobilisation of joints
Production of synovial fluid
Increase H.R, breathing,muscle temp
Get participants “in the mood” for
exercise
WHAT HAPPENS
 Body temp and deep muscle temperature
increases.
 This means that muscles, ligaments and
connective tissue become more pliable and
will therefore be less prone to injury.
 The exchange of oxygen from blood to the
tissues is more rapid at higher
temperatures.
 Muscles contract and relax more rapidly
 Lactic acid is more easily dispersed at
higher temperatures.
WHAT HAPPENS
 The supply of synovial fluid in the
joints is increased and cartilaginous
material ( which acts as shock
absorbers ) thickens. This ensures
greater freedom of movement at the
major joints and improves
performance as well as protecting the
joints.

WARM DOWN THEORY
P.E.O.
Warm Down Theory
 Purpose To return the body to the pre exercise state.
This is probably the most important part of the
session and the most frequently ignored.
AIMS






To lower the heart rate
prevent blood pooling
prevent dizziness
help remove lactic acid
reduce muscle soreness
Improve flexibility, range of movement
and relax muscles by stretching.
 Hold each stretch for 20-30 sec`s.
METHOD
Keep moving after the main theme,
change to jogging,slow down to a
walk for 2 -3 minutes then commence
stretching.
WARM DOWN LESSON PLAN
Lower the heart rate gradually by jogging walking etc
