To build some muscle while doing your cardio, try circuit-training and body-sculpting classes that roll resistance and aerobic training into one continuous routine. That’s just the tip of the iceberg. None of these types of classes is inherently better or worse than others; it depends on where you’ve been and where you want to go. “If you used to run track or play basketball, you should probably try something like a high-low class, which entails a lot of running and jumping,” she explains. “On the other hand, if you aren’t a dancer or a ‘movement’ person, I wouldn’t recommend a funk or a hip-hop class, at least not initially. It’d be confusing and you probably wouldn’t get a good workout.”

"The idea behind warming up is to prepare the muscles for physical activity, You want to improve flexibility, strength, extensibility of the tendons and blood flow to the muscles. It should definitely be part of the preparation to any sport." Bodybuilders are at higher risk for soft-tissue injuries/traumas than most other athletes because of the heavy loads they place on their muscles. Kibbler says bodybuilders should warm up the entire body, not just the muscle to be worked, to maximize the benefits of weight training and minimize the risk of injury. When weight training, your warm-up should include: Light, aerobic activity -- jog in place, ride a stationary bike, use a stair climber kick or treadmill -- for 4-7 minutes. Static stretches -- for each of the muscle groups, especially those about to be worked.
