If you are wondering if there is a certain amount of time, that you should perform, your warm ups and cool down, the experts suggest about fifteen minutes of each.



Increase Slowly

Once you are done warming up, and are ready to hit the weights, start with your smaller weights first and gradually work up to the heavier ones. Doing this each time you do your bodybuilding exercises will help ensure that you are working out safely as well as efficiently.  It also gives your muscles some extra warm up time.
