Benefits of a warm-up: allowing you
to work aerobically
• Increased muscle/body temperature which
for longer.
Increases elasticity of fibres and speed
of nerve impulses which Increases speed of •
muscle contraction. increases HR

Better reaction time in game OBLA
• Blood flow increases , more O2 to muscles. releases
• Increases enzyme activity making you more alert activates adrenaline Increased More 02 taken in

Benefits of cool-down: •
• Removal of waste products (lactic acid) speeds up
