I need some good recommendations for warm up and cool down exercises. Right now I just jump into it at the gym and I want to feel like I do a more complete work out than just jumping on a machine. Give me good ideas.

    warm your body up for a few minutes (jog, jump rope, jacks) then stretch the body parts you will used in your workout, for the cool down you can stretch again.

    for 15 min before and 15 min after.
