- abalaji 5y agoThis is conjecture--but there might be a difference between aerobic and anaerobic exercise in this case.
- tartoran 5y agoWhat does before mean in this context? Half hour or 2-3 hours? Unwinding is necessary and half hour is not enough.
- vmh1928 5y agoWhen I do it it's not strenuous. With dumbbells. Arm lifts (to the side and front) and military press using 5lb, bent over rows with 20lb, curls with 5lb, shoulder shrugs with 20, squats with 20. Followed by laying on the floor dumbbell presses with 20lb and pushups. Some sit ups too.
- ycombinete 5y agoThis has been my personal experience as well.
