Question

You have decided that you are ready to start a fitness program. You have not exercised on a regular basis in about a year. What principles of exercise should you consider when starting a new exercise regime and what should you do before and after every workout to minimize injuries

Answer 1

You should start by stretching before and after to minimize the risk of injuries. Stay hydrated and don't overdo it. Work your way up in intensity too. You can't just start out doing 400 push ups, you have to start small and be reasonable about your limitations.

Answer 2

If you decide to start a physical training plan after an extended period of time without physical activity, the main criterion to be followed is progressiveness, that is, to carry out exercises gradually and progressively, managing intensity and weights used in a way that does not produce an excessive load on muscles that are not used to exercise.

Furthermore, to avoid injuries, it is very important to warm up through corrective movements, dynamic stretching and light aerobic exercises; in addition to elongating the trained muscles once the session is over.
