A cool-down should help your body adjust from exercise to rest. Your application of a cool-down will depend somewhat on the type of exercise you’ve undertaken.

Some weight training workouts will follow a natural cool-down of sorts, as intensity may lesson depending upon the final exercise/s of your gym workout.

In circumstances where your cardiovascular system has been placed under a greater workload, a cool-down can serve to lower your pulse rate and return blood to your heart, aiding in the dissipation of waste products, such as Lactic Acid.
