Prior to a weightlifting session, do some form of cardiovascular exercise at a light, comfortable intensity for about 5 to 10 minutes. Stretch each specific muscle you have trained during your weightlifting session. After strength training, cool down for about 5 to 10 minutes at light intensity, similar to your warm-up. Try easy cycling, walking, or any other cardiovascular exercise at low intensity. If your physician approves, start slowly and expand your exercise routine over time.
