I'd personally say B because a warmup will reduce injury, soreness, and get you ready. Then you have your exercise. Then the cooldown helps bring the heartrate down to near-normal and to get the blood circulating freely back to the heart. Stopping abruptly could result in fainting or place undue stress on the heart.
