P hysiological A spects of A ctivities The body’s physiological responses to exercise occur in the musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, respiratory, endocrine, and immune systems. Different types of exercises will have different effects upon the muscles exercised. Before performing any exercise, or workout body has to be warmed up properly for the efficient and effective functioning of muscles. Warm-up Warming up is a short time activity carried out prior to any intense or skilled activity.
It is important to warm up before exercising, which is usually done by including to minutes of light activities, such as, slow jog, calisthenics, and s tretching. Players need warm-up as it increases body temperature and heart rate, provide stretching, stimulate the entire body and major Do You Know?

Stretching results in increased blood flow and prevents injuries to the muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Proper warm-up exercises are not supposed to be done vigorously. A warm-up generally consists of a gradual increase in intensity of physical activity (a ‘pulse raiser’), joint mobility exercise, and stretching, followed by the main activity.
Warming up brings the body to a condition at which it safely responds to nerve signals for quick and efficient action. The objectives of the warm-up are to increase heart rate, blood flow, internal temperature of the muscles, respiratory rate, perspiration, and decrease the viscosity of joint fluids. A warm-up is intended to raise the body temperature and prepare a player physiologically and psychologically to compete in a game. Researchers have suggested that the optimum duration of the warm-up period, should be between to minutes.
This should consist of a gradual increase
