Cool Down & Stretch  

Remember to adjust appropriately for your fitness level and change any exercise you need to replace. Have fun with it but challenge yourself so you don't plateau but you get stronger.

 Although we do not list stretches for you to do, we expect you will stretch each muscle group holding each stretch for at least 20 seconds.

Hydration Reminder!
 During the duration of the workout, a good rule of thumb is about 10oz every 10-20 minutes. Remember that this will change depending on the temperature and humidity conditions in which you are training.  After working out, the recommendation is 16-24 oz of water per pound of body weight you lost during the workout. To measure your sweat loss, you must weigh yourself before the workout and then again after the workout. It is best to weigh yourself without clothing and shoes in order to have the most accurate measure. It is important not to weigh yourself in your sweat soaked clothes after your workout because it will add to your weight and lead to an inaccurate reading. The difference in weight from your post-workout weight to your pre-workout weight is the number of pounds in water you lost and must replenish. If this is not feasible for you to measure, continue to drink water after you finish your workout and aim for about 16-24 oz.
