This is just as important as warming up beforehand.   For a balanced workout, try to incorporate cardiovascular exercises such as cycling, swimming or running on the treadmill into your fitness programme. This way, all your muscle groups will be benefiting from your workout.   Always wait 24 to 48 hours after you have worked a particular muscle group before you focus on that same area again, in order to prevent muscular sprains and other injuries.   Virgin Active is more than a gym; it is a health club in all possible interpretations of the term.
