The purpose is prepare the body for physical activity. the warm up is generally used to increase body temperature, increase of heart rate and breathing rate, and also help you mentally prepare for exercise.

After any aerobic activity, the blood is pooled in the extremities, and the heart rate is elevated. the purspose of a cool down is to bring the heart rate down to near normal and get the blood circulating freely back to the heart. stopping abruptly could result in fainting or place undue stress to heart.

There is some evidence that regular stretching outside periods of exercise may increase power and speed, and reduce injury. the best time to stretch is when the muscles are warm and pliable.

Without stretching the muscles shorten, and become tight so stretching keeps the muscles flexible, strong, and healthy and we need flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints.

7-9 hours of sleep requirements vary between person to person, most healthy adults need between 7-9 hours of sleep per night to function at their best. I am getting between the 7-9 hour range, but durning exams it is hard to get sleep because I all I want to do is stay up and study.

if you can nit the hours required to sleep it can affect your overall health and make you prone to serious medical conditions, such as obesity, heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes.

While studying I enjoy having bananas with peanut better and yogurt with mixed berries.
