∙ 13y agoIf you don't warm up before and exercise you can seriously hurt yourself. Plus, it will get you pumped before a game or run. I'm in 6th grade and at my school we warm up every day, and then run a mile and a half. Don't try to push yourself before you warm up.

∙ 12y ago1 reason for warming up and cooling down is because if you don't warm up during your dancing session, you could easily pull a muscle or damage something in your body. It is the exact same for cooling down, you could pull a muscle or do worse. When you warm up, you are also getting your heart beating faster and your body temperature is rising. Its the opposite for cooling down, you are trying to get your body to cool down, also cool down to get the lactic acid in your joints, that's what makes you ache in the morning. Get Cramp. Prevents Pain. Could pull or rip muscles.
