Jane's safety tips for exercising

Before going ahead with Jane's exercise plan, make sure you read her top tips to stay safe while you work out.

Wear comfortable clothing that allows your skin to breathe and a good pair of supportive training shoes.

Always wear a supportive sports bra – doesn’t matter how big or small you are!

Aim to eat a small meal 2 hours before or a snack like a banana 20 minutes before

Drink water beforem, during and after your workouts

If you are new to exercise, start with the lower ranges of each exercise, keeping your intensity at level 1–2. Gradually build up your exercise.

If you are pregnant or recently had a baby you need to keep your intensity low and should always consult with a doctor. There are many exercises that will be unsuitable to you - for more advice go to www.baby-a-wake.co.uk.

This programme is designed for healthy adults, so if you have any health concerns you must consult with your doctor. It is always advisable to consult with your doctor before embarking on an exercise regime.

Always warm up and cool down, if doing short bursts of 10 minutes or less

Just do the first 3 min warm up video. If doing longer workouts do both the first and second warm up videos. Always cool down using stretches from the 3 minute cool down video.

If you feel any pain at the time of working out STOP and reassess what you are doing

If you feel achy in your muscles the following day after a workout – take it easier on the next day - look at some of the easier workout options.
