Hi, my name is Kyle Brayer and now that you have finished your bicep workout make sure that you have cooled your body down. You have increased your heart rate and it was at that elevated position for a good half hour to 45 minutes and now you need to bring it back down slowly. A nice walk on a treadmill or any other exercise will slowly decrease your heart rate and it is good for your heart and good for your body. Make sure you don't get shocked into that cooling feeling. For your stretching you are going to perform a similar exercise to what you did before so Carrie here is going to interlace her fingers. She is going to roll her palms away from her body and she is going to extend her arms out and lock those elbows and kind of roll it her back a little bit. This is going to give her a nice pull on that bicep down through the forearm and work those wrists that we were working a little bit earlier. She is breathing throughout this entire exercise and then she is going to switch to where she puts her hands behind her back. This is a nice chest stretch so she is going to pull her arms up. If you have someone at home that can help you with this exercise I can actually apply pressure until she feels that tension and makes it a little easier for her and then she can tell me when she is there and then we would release and then the last step she will be up and over her head and she will do that tricep stretch. Grabbing the opposite tricep with her hand. She is pulling and she is getting a nice pull in the shoulder and a little bit in the bicep and actually down the obliques and ribs as well so that will conclude your stretch and cool down.
