Which of these is the most appropriate type of exercise for the cool-down phase?
The cool-down phase is designed to help the body gradually transition from high-intensity activity to a resting state. It
serves several important purposes:
Gradual Heart Rate Reduction - Gentle jogging or walking allows the heart rate to slowly return to normal, avoiding
dizziness or a sudden drop in blood pressure. Prevention of Blood Pooling - Light activity keeps blood circulating and prevents it from pooling in the lower limbs.
Muscle Relaxation and Flexibility - Static stretching after light aerobic activity helps lengthen muscles/improve's
flexibility, and reduce muscle stiffness or soreness.
