4. Cooling-Down Phase

  Initially,  the  cooling-down  phase  usually  includes  some
  strength  exercises.  The  training  session  is  concluded  by
  cooling  the  body  down  with  an  easy  jog,  stretching,  and
  loosening up. A massage also helps with regeneration.
  Strength Training
  Pull-ups,  push-ups,  sit-ups,  and  neck  pulls  are  frequently
  used  to  invigorate  the  body.  It  also  makes  sense  to  do
  exercises  for  the  muscles  of  the  lower  back.  Do  many
  repetitions  with  the  goal  of  improving  strength  and
  endurance.  If  you  are  planning  to  increase  your  muscle
  mass  signi cantly,  however,  your  training  sessions  must
  be exclusively dedicated to building your strength.
